Genetic and Epigenetic Variations of HPV52 in Cervical Precancer [PDF]
The goal of this study was to identify human papillomavirus (HPV) type 52 genetic and epigenetic changes associated with high-grade cervical precancer and cancer. Patients were selected from the HPV Persistence and Progression (PaP) cohort, a cervical cancer screening program at Kaiser Permanente Northern California (KPNC).

Recurrence of cervical precancer after excisional treatment: risks and prevention
Background. Genital papillomavirus infection is widespread in the population, initiating the development of precancer and genital cancer. The vast majority (83.0%) of human papillomavirus-related cancer cases worldwide are cervical cancer.

The HPV Cellular Transactivator Brn-3a Can Be Used to Predict Cervical Adenocarcinoma and Squamous Carcinoma Precancer Lesions in the Developed and Developing Worlds [PDF]
The cellular transactivator Brn-3a has previously been shown to be expressed at elevated levels in the cervix of women with squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix (SCC) and to activate the expression of HPV E6 mRNA.

Candidate biomarkers in the cervical vaginal fluid for the (self-)diagnosis of cervical precancer [PDF]
Despite improvement in vaccines against human papilloma virus (HPV), the causative agent of cervical cancer, screening women for cervical precancer will remain indispensable in the coming 30-40 years. A simple test that could be performed at home or at a doctor's practice and that informs the woman whether she is at risk would significantly help make a

Cervical Precancer Treatment Outcomes in Cameroon. [PDF]
Background and Objective The ablative and excision treatment procedures are effective, accessible, and affordable in resource-constrained settings, but the rollout and posttreatment follow-up are not remarkable. The outcomes of treatment procedures among women treated for precancerous lesions of the cervix have ...

Treatment of Cervical Precancers [PDF]
Both ablative (cervical cryotherapy, laser ablation) and excisional methods (loop electrosurgical excision procedure, cold knife conization) can be effective at treating cervical precancer. Excisional procedures are associated with adverse obstetric outcomes including preterm delivery and perinatal mortality with the depth of excision potentially ...
