Introduction: Despite recommendations from the WHO, antenatal care (ANC) coverage remains low in many low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). Community health workers (CHWs) can play an important role in expanding ANC coverage through pregnancy identification, provision of health education, screening for complications, delivery of therapeutic care and referral to higher levels of care. However, despite the success of CHW programmes in various countries, WHO has called for additional research to develop evidence-based models that optimise CHW service delivery and that can be replicated across geographies.

- The study highlights the need for genetic counseling in cases of male breast cancer, suggesting that its occurrence should be systematically investigated.
- Researchers conducted a retrospective analysis of male breast cancer cases diagnosed between January 2007 and September 2021, examining both histopathological and molecular variables.
- Out of 8 cases, most patients were around 50 years old, with a predominance of infiltrative non-specific carcinoma and notable occurrence of luminal A and triple-negative subtypes.
Cervical cancer (CC) remains a real public health problem in low- and middle-income countries, where technical resources and competent personnel are insufficient. Persistent cervix infection by high-risk human papillomavirus (Hr-HPV) is the main cause of CC development. In the current study, we examined the distribution of Hr-HPV in the general healthy Malian population using cervicovaginal self- sampling.

The aim of this study is to screen for Hr-HPV using vaginal self-sampling, which is a more effective approach to improve women's adherence and increase screening rates.
