Evaluation of the Therapeutic Effect of Quadrivalent Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccination on Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia Lesions
Indian J Surg Oncol. 2023 Jun;14(2):504-509. doi: 10.1007/s13193-022-01657-w. Epub 2022 Oct 1.ABSTRACTCervical cancer is the most common health problem among global young women. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) is a pre-invasive stage of cervical cancer, the major cause of which is human papillomavirus (HPV), and vaccination has a promising effect on reducing the progression of CIN lesions. The current study was a retrospective case control investigation in two centers, Shiraz and Sari Universities of Medical Sciences from 2018 to 2020 to evaluate the effect of quadrivalent HPV vaccination on CIN lesions (I, II, an...

Gene expression profiling of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from women with cervical lesions reveals new markers of cancer
Oncol Rep. 2023 Jun;49(6):118. doi: 10.3892/or.2023.8555. Epub 2023 Apr 28.ABSTRACTCervical cancer (CC) is a multifactorial disease of which human papillomavirus (HPV) is the main etiological agent. Despite cervical Pap smear screening and anti‑HPV vaccination, CC remains a major public health issue. Identification of specific gene expression signatures in the blood could allow better insight into the immune response of CC and could provide valuable information for the development of novel biomarkers. The present study performed a transcriptomic analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from Senegalese patie...

Knowledge and attitudes of cervical cancer screening among female high school teachers in Hail city: A cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: Interventions to increase cervical cancer knowledge are needed in Hail city in Saudi Arabia. In addition, further research is needed to understand and assess the effectiveness of different strategies to improve attitudes regarding cervical cancer, in order to increase the uptake of screening services.PMID:36618214 | PMC:PMC9810974 | DOI:10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_917_22

Screening technologies for cervical cancer: Overview
Cytojournal. 2022 Mar 29;19:23. doi: 10.25259/CMAS_03_04_2021. eCollection 2022.ABSTRACTEver since the introduction of the Papanicolaou (PAP) smear test was published in 1941 in American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, PAP test linked with definitive treatment has prevented millions of women from cervical cancer in the developed countries. Due to limited availability of resources, a lack of infrastructure and difficulty in getting highly trained professionals, widespread implementation of PAP test dependent cervical cancer screening program has not been established in low and middle income countries such as India. Th...

Management of Cervical Dysplasia Using Office Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure
Prim Care. 2021 Dec;48(4):583-595. doi: 10.1016/j.pop.2021.07.008. Epub 2021 Oct 8.ABSTRACTDeclining cervical cancer rates in the United States highlights the value of prevention and early detection of premalignant cervical disease afforded by the human papillomavirus vaccine and Pap smear. The availability of in-office loop electrosurgical excision procedure affords clinicians with a cost-effective and preferred tool for the excision of high-grade lesions of the cervix with minimal risk for severe adverse outcomes. The most recent American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology guidelines recommend a risk-based app...

Endometrial Cytology as a Method to Improve the Accuracy of Diagnosis of Endometrial Cancer: Case Report and Meta-Analysis
Conclusion In conclusion, endometrial cytology is an efficient diagnostic method and could be applied in the diagnosis of endometrial disorders. The diagnostic accuracy of endometrial carcinoma will surely be improved by the combination of cyto-histopathological procedures and vaginal ultrasonography. Moreover, cytological examination, as a proper outpatient procedure, should be advised for endometrial screening, especial for those with high-risks of endometrial cancer. Author Contributions QingW and QiW drafted the manuscript. QingW, LZ, and CS collected the case. QiW, LH, and SM performed the meta analysis. HH perform...

An evidence‐based review of the rectovaginal examination during well‐woman visits
ConclusionsAvailable literature shows the RVE to have low sensitivity in detecting uterosacral nodularity, rectal compression, cervical involvement of endometrial cancer, and colorectal cancer. Implications for practiceThis critical review of available literature found no evidence to support the use of the RVE in well‐woman visits. NPs should limit the use of the RVE to patients presenting with rectovaginal or pelvic complaints.
