Introduction: To address the cervical cancer burden globally, the World Health Organization and European Union released strategies to facilitate HPV-related cancers prevention, including cervical cancer elimination. This research assessed European country level readiness to achieve cervical cancer elimination by adhering to such strategies.
Areas Covered: Readiness for cervical cancer elimination was assessed across a range of guiding questions relevant to three defined key domains: vaccination, screening, and treatment, each with two sub-domains focusing on decision making and implementation efforts.
Background: The nationwide HUN-CANCER EPI study examined cancer incidence and mortality rates in Hungary from 2011 to 2019.
Methods: Using data from the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) and Hungarian Central Statistical Office (HCSO), our retrospective study analyzed newly diagnosed malignancies between Jan 1, 2011, and Dec 31, 2019. Age-standardized incidence and mortality rates were calculated for all and for different tumor types using both the 1976 and 2013 European Standard Populations (ESP).
The impact of short-term pelvic floor muscle training on the biomechanical parameters of the pelvic floor among patients with stress urinary incontinence: A pilot study.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to enhance understanding of how pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT) affects biomechanics in women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).
- A six-week PFMT program was assessed, measuring 52 biomechanical parameters and self-reported urinary distress scores before and after training, with participants divided into Improved and Not-improved groups based on UDI-6 score changes.
- Results showed significant changes in nine biomechanical parameters after PFMT, with 11 women in the Improved Group showing clinically meaningful reductions in urinary distress.
The cornerstone of ovarian cancer treatment is complete surgical cytoreduction. The gold-standard option in the absence of extra-abdominal metastases and intra-abdominal inoperable circumstances is primary cytoreductive surgery (CRS). However, achieving complete cytoreduction is challenging, and only possible in a selected patient population.

Methods: A total of 130 subjects were included in the observational cohort study; 70 subjects had normal pelvic floor conditions, and 60 subjects had stress urinary incontinence (SUI). A Vaginal Tactile Imager (VTI) was used to acquire and automatically calculate 52 biomechanical parameters for eight VTI test procedures (probe insertion, elevation, rotation, Valsalva maneuver, voluntary muscle contractions in two planes, relaxation, and reflex contraction).
