Cervical cancer is a recognized preventable disease yet the fourth most common cancer among women globally. This study assessed the integration and acceptability of cervical cancer screening as part of routine sixth-week postnatal care among women attending a postnatal clinic. This was a cross-sectional descriptive study among 347 postpartum women who were attending their 6th-week postnatal visit.

Article Synopsis
- Vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) is a new surgical method that combines vaginal access with laparoscopic tools, resulting in less postoperative pain and shorter hospital stays due to no abdominal incisions.
- Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a technique to safeguard the reproductive health of young women at risk of premature ovarian insufficiency from cancer treatments, involving the removal and freezing of ovarian tissue for future transplant after cancer remission.
- This study details the use of vNOTES for performing ovarian biopsies for cryopreservation, although the technique has not yet been applied for this purpose in clinical practice.
Evaluating the potential of residual Pap test fluid as a resource for the metaproteomic analysis of the cervical-vaginal microbiome.

The human cervical-vaginal area contains proteins derived from microorganisms that may prevent or predispose women to gynecological conditions. The liquid Pap test fixative is an unexplored resource for analysis of microbial communities and the microbe-host interaction. Previously, we showed that the residual cell-free fixative from discarded Pap tests of healthy women could be used for mass spectrometry (MS) based proteomic identification of cervical-vaginal proteins.
