Background: It is crucial to identify post-operative patients with HPV infection who are at high risk for residual/recurrent disease. This study aimed to evaluate the association between HPV integration and clinical outcomes in HPV-positive women after cervical conization, as well as to identify HPV integration breakpoints.
Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data of 791 women who underwent cervical conization for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grades 2-3 (CIN2-3) between September 2019 and September 2023, sourced from the Fujian and Hubei cervical lesion screening cohorts.

Background: Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common sexually transmitted lower genital tract infection worldwide and the main etiological factor of cervical cancer (CC). Since 2006, vaccines have been implemented to reduce CC-related morbidity and mortality. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the prevalence of cervical infections by non-vaccine high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) types in women vaccinated against types 16 and 18.

Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) significantly affect patient quality of life. Treatment options for bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (a common cause of LUTS) are insufficient to relieve discomfort. As the incidence of BPH is increasing, new pharmacological targets for LUTS treatment are required.

As available treatments in obstructive sleep apnea are all associated with side-effects or adherence problems, there is a need for alternative treatment options. In this randomized, open, parallel-group intervention study, the effect of head extension by cervical collar was evaluated in patients with moderate obstructive sleep apnea. One-hundred patients with moderate obstructive sleep apnea (apneas and hypopneas per estimated hours asleep = respiratory events index: 15-30) were randomized to either lifestyle intervention, or cervical collar in combination with lifestyle intervention.

Aims: There are limited data on programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression in oesophageal cancer (OC) from multicentre studies conducted across China. We aimed to determine the prevalence of high PD-L1 expression in patients with advanced OC.
Methods: The EXCEED study was a multicentre, retrospective analysis of data from six tertiary hospitals that evaluated PD-L1 expression in adults with advanced OC or advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
