An update on one-dose HPV vaccine studies, immunobridging and humoral immune responses - A meeting report
This report summarises the discussions and lessons learned on two topics: an update on one-dose HPV vaccination studies and humoral immune responses upon HPV vaccination. Long-term follow-up studies from Costa Rica (eleven years) and India (ten years) report stable levels of antibodies after a single HPV vaccination. High vaccine effectiveness against incident persistent HPV 16/18 infection was seen in India (95.4%, 85.0-99.9) ten years postvaccination and in Kenya (97.5%, 81.7-99.7) eighteen months postvaccination, an important observation in a setting with a higher HPV prevalence. The potential impact of HPV vaccination ...

Predictors of Colonoscopy Use Among Asian Indians in New York City, 2003 to 2016
CONCLUSIONS: Among Asian Indians living in New York City, several demographic, socioeconomic, and health-related characteristics predict colonoscopy use. These findings highlight the importance of examining determinants of colonoscopy uptake in this understudied population to inform future public health interventions.PMID:37556383 | DOI:10.1097/MCG.0000000000001900

COVID-19 Severity and Waning Immunity After up to 4 mRNA Vaccine Doses in 73  608 Patients With Cancer and 621 475 Matched Controls in Singapore: A Nationwide Cohort Study
CONCLUSION: This cohort study provides evidence of the clinical effectiveness of mRNA-based vaccines against COVID-19 in patients with cancer. Longevity of immunity in preventing severe COVID-19 outcomes in actively treated patients with cancer, cancer survivors, and matched controls was observed at least 5 months after the third or fourth dose.PMID:37440245 | DOI:10.1001/jamaoncol.2023.2271

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...

Carcinoma vulva: Ten years experience in a teaching institution of North India
CONCLUSION: Tumour stage, nodal positivity and nodal ECS were poor prognostic factors. Radical surgery-extensive groin node dissection causes significant morbidity; hence, studies evaluating the role of neoadjuvant treatment are needed so as to modify current treatment practices. HPV vaccination as a preventive measure and a thorough and extensive evaluation of patients with suspicious signs in vulvar disease is needed.PMID:37312782 | PMC:PMC10259558 | DOI:10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_1731_22

Insights from establishing a high throughput viral diagnostic laboratory for SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR testing facility: challenges and experiences
Front Public Health. 2023 Apr 17;11:1122715. doi: 10.3389/fpubh.2023.1122715. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTBackground: The World Health Organization declared the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) a global pandemic on 11 March 2020. Identifying the infected people and isolating them was the only measure that was available to control the viral spread, as there were no standardized treatment interventions available. Various public health measures, including vaccination, have been implemented to control the spread of the virus worldwide. India, being a densely populated country, required laboratories in different zones of the co...

Overview of COVID-19 mortality in Zoram Medical College, Mizoram: A hospital-based study
CONCLUSIONS: COVID-19 is more severe in the older age group above 65 years of age and in males, particularly in the presence of underlying co-morbidities. Mortality was also higher in patients with no history of vaccination as compared with patients vaccinated. Also, delay in hospital admission increases the length of hospital stay and mortality.PMID:37091016 | PMC:PMC10114571 | DOI:10.4103/jfmpc.jfmpc_1251_22

Vaccination coverage and breakthrough infections of COVID-19 during the second wave among staff of selected medical institutions in India
PLOS Glob Public Health. 2023 Apr 7;3(4):e0000946. doi: 10.1371/journal.pgph.0000946. eCollection 2023.ABSTRACTIndia experienced the second wave of SARS-CoV-2 infection from April 3 to June 10, 2021. During the second wave, Delta variant B.1617.2 emerged as the predominant strain, spiking cases from 12.5 million to 29.3 million (cumulative) by the end of the surge in India. Vaccines against COVID-19 are a potent tool to control and end the pandemic in addition to other control measures. India rolled out its vaccination programme on January 16, 2021, initially with two vaccines that were given emergency authorization-Covaxi...

Incidence and characterisation of post-COVID-19 symptoms in hospitalized COVID-19 survivors: A single centre, prospective observational cohort study to recognize the syndemic connotations in India
CONCLUSIONS: 60.8% of inpatients treated for COVID-19 had post-COVID-19 symptoms at 6 week's post- discharge from hospital. Incidence of post-COVID-19 syndrome in the cohort did not significantly differ across the mild, moderate and severe COVID-19 severity categories. Female sex and steroid administration during hospital stay were identified as predictors of persistence of post-COVID-19 symptoms at 6 weeks.PMID:36920842 | DOI:10.2196/40028

Up-to-Date Colonoscopy Use in Asian and Hispanic Subgroups in New York City, 2003-2016
CONCLUSIONS: We found significant variation in colonoscopy uptake among Asian and Hispanic subgroups. We also identified numerous demographic, socioeconomic, and health-related predictors of colonoscopy uptake. These findings highlight the importance of examining health disparities through the lens of disaggregated racial/ethnic subgroups and have the potential to inform future public health interventions.PMID:36753456 | DOI:10.1097/MCG.0000000000001835

Cancer awareness & amp; its association with demographic variables & amp; mobile phone usage among the rural population of a district in north India
CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this study highlight the existing low level of awareness of cervical and breast cancers among the rural population. The association of cancer awareness with education level and mobile phone-based internet usage suggests the potential utility of internet-based platforms such as m-health programmes for cancer prevention activities.PMID:36510902 | DOI:10.4103/ijmr.IJMR_3145_20
