Objective: To update the recommendations issued by the National Cancer Institute (INCa) on the management of women with abnormal cervical cytology.

Methods: INCa recommendations on the management of women with abnormal cervical cytology were published in 2016. In 2019, the High Authority of Health (HAS) recommends HPV test for cervical cancer screening in women over 30.

Objectives: To revise the 1983 colposcopic terminology form the French Society of Colposcopy and cervicovaginal pathology (SFCPCV).

Methods: All the three following steps of colposcopic examination were considered for the description of various colposcopic features: inspection without coloration, followed by the application of acetic acid and iodine staining. This revised terminology now includes the different possible colposcopic aspects of the normal cervix, including the ectropion and the normal transformation zone.

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and obstetric outcomes after laser conization for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia.

Methods: This retrospective study included 757 patients who underwent laser conization between 2014 and 2020. Patients with a diagnosis of invasive lesions or adenocarcinoma in situ were excluded.

Bioactivity-guided fractionations of chloromethylenic extract of the roots of U. afzelii (Annonaceae), using Leishmania donovani and Trypanosoma brucei brucei bioassay, resulted in the isolation of the two known compounds, emorydone (1) and demethoxymatteucinol (2), previously isolated from the stems, which were characterised from this source. In addition, the novel 1-indanone, afzeliindanone (3), was also isolated.

Article Synopsis
  • Acetogenins from the Annonaceae family are effective inhibitors of mitochondrial complex I, but their structure/activity relationships are inconsistent, prompting researchers to explore alternative cellular targets.
  • Using a combination of synthetic chemistry and proteomic methods, new potential protein targets for the compound squamocin were identified, challenging the previous belief that complex I was the main target.
  • These findings enhance our understanding of how these neurotoxic molecules function, potentially leading to new insights in biochemical research.
