[Changes in maturation index and vaginal dryness after treatment with topical conjugated estrogens in low and conventional dose].

Background: local estrogen treatments have been used for vaginal dryness management. The objective was to determine the maturation index (MI) and vaginal dryness after the treatment with topic conjugated estrogens (TCE) in low and conventional doses in Mexican women.

Methods: postmenopausal women that received vaginal TCE cream.

The development of effective vaccines against the human papilloma virus and the application of new methods of detection from viral DNA (completely automated for personal application) allow some degree of optimism.

Co-expression of metalloproteinases 11 and 12 in cervical scrapes cells from cervical precursor lesions.

The metalloproteinases (MMP) 11 and 12 have been shown to be expressed in cervical cancer (CC). In order to extend our previous results, these MMPs were evaluated in cervical precursor lesions. One hundred seventeen cervical scrapes: thirty-six normal, thirty-six low grade squamous lesions (LSIL), thirty-six high grade (HSIL), nine CC; and, also ninety-nine paraffin-embedded cervical lesions: fifteen normal cervices, thirty eight LSIL, sixteen HSIL, and five CC were collected.
