Objective: We compared the performance of high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) messenger RNA testing of physician- and self-collected specimens for detecting histological grade 2 or higher cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) among women who visited a colposcopy clinic in Thailand.

Methods: From January 2022 to April 2022, 500 women participated in this cross-sectional multicenter study; 494 had complete data and valid specimen results. The participants were women who attended any one of the 10 participating institutes' colposcopy clinics due to abnormal cytology, positive high-risk HPV testing, or for follow-up.

Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the effectiveness of human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) and cancer antigen 125 (CA125), and risk of ovarian malignancy algorithm (ROMA) in identifying type I and type II epithelial ovarian cancers (EOCs).

Methods: A cross-sectional diagnostic study was conducted of 499 Thai women older than 18 years who had clinically diagnosed pelvic masses and underwent elective surgery at our hospital between July 2012 and July 2014. Preoperative serum HE4 and CA125 levels were measured, and postoperative pathologic slides were reviewed.

Background: Serum human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) is highly expressed in women with ovarian cancers (OCs), but data about its clinical application of HE4 for Thai women is limited.

Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and optimal cutoff for HE4 in distinguishing benign lesions, borderline ovarian tumor (BOTs), and OCs compared with CA125 in Thai women at Rajavithi Hospital.

Material And Method: The cross-sectional study was conducted in Thai women aged older than 18 years old with pelvic masses whom underwent elective surgery at Rajavithi Hospital between 2012 and 2013.

Objective: To develop a new scoring system based on menopausal status, ultrasound (US) findings, serum cancer antigen 125 (CA125) and human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) to predict ovarian cancer (OC) in women presenting with a pelvic or adnexal mass.

Methods: Consecutive female patients aged over 18years with pelvic or adnexal masses investigated preoperatively by pelvic US, serum CA125 and HE4 who underwent elective surgery were enrolled. The "Rajavithi-Ovarian Cancer Predictive Score (R-OPS)" was developed using data from 2012 and validated using data from 2013 to 2014.

The objective of the present study was to evaluate the impact of intervals on complications and pathological examination in women undergoing a repeat loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) for cervical neoplasia. During October 2004 and January 2007, 78 women who had undergone repeat LEEP at Chiang Mai University Hospital, were prospectively evaluated. The mean age was 47.

Objective: To evaluate the patterns of electrocardiography (ECG), cardiac risk factors and its clinical consequence in women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) who received paclitaxel and carboplatin (PC) as front line chemotherapy.

Material And Method: The medical records and electrocardiographic data of women with EOC who received paclitaxel (175 mg/min2) and carboplatin (AUC=5) every 3 weeks at Chiang Mai University Hospital between January 2000 and December 2004 were reviewed for cardiac risk factors and clinical consequence.

Results: Among 79 women receiving PC for EOC, 43 (54.
