Article Synopsis
- Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is a leading cause of cervical cancer and can induce cellular senescence, which plays a role in cancer development.
- The study investigated atypical senescent changes in cervical cells in 121 non-menopausal women, assessing their HPV status alongside various cytological features.
- Findings indicated a significant association between high-risk HPV and multiple factors including age, parakeratosis, p16 immunostaining, enlarged squamous cell nuclei, and inflammatory cell infiltration, suggesting these may help identify HPV-related changes early and improve cancer treatment strategies.
Adjunctive use of antimicrobials with scaling and root planing (SRP) is necessary to better eradicate dental biofilm. Tetracycline (T) is the most commonly used antimicrobial; however, it has limitations. This study evaluates the effect of curcumin (CU) as adjunct to SRP on inflammatory markers, collagen fiber deposition, and altered iron level.
