Article Synopsis
- The study examined the relationship between oxidative stress markers, HPV infection, and cervical cancer precursor lesions in women aged 14 to 60 living in Amazon communities in Pará, Brazil.* -
- Results showed that malondialdehyde levels were significantly higher in HPV-positive women in Itaituba, while differences in total glutathione levels were noted only in Bragança.* -
- Overall, while some oxidative stress markers were linked to HPV infection, the lack of correlation with squamous lesions suggests that other factors might contribute to cervical cancer development.*
