Cervical cancer continues to disproportionately burden women in sub-Saharan Africa, and is the commonest gynecological cancer in Ghana. The Cervical Cancer Prevention and Training Centre (CCPTC), Battor, Ghana spearheaded the Ghana arm of the mPharma 10,000 Women Initiative (mTTWI) between September 2021 and October 2022. The aim of this study was to examine the outcomes of nationwide concurrent screening using high-risk human papillomavirus (hr-HPV) DNA testing and visual inspection methods, as well as factors associated with the screening outcomes.

Introduction: The United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommendation for cervical cancer screening includes the option to screen with high-risk human papilloma virus (hrHPV) alone, but some studies have reported that hrHPV testing alone missed precancerous and cancerous lesions. In this study, we evaluated the test performance characteristics of hrHPV in detecting cervical dysplasia with cervical cytology and biopsy as comparators.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of Papanicolaou smears between January and December 2019 performed at our institution with concurrent hrHPV and cytology testing.

E6AP/UBE3A is the founding member of the HECT (Homologous to the E6-AP Carboxyl Terminus) ubiquitin E3 ligase family, which add ubiquitin post-translationally to protein substrates. E6AP has been structurally defined in complex with human papillomavirus (HPV) oncoprotein E6 and its gain-of-function substrate tumor suppressor p53; however, there is currently no report of E6AP being expressed and purified from mammalian cells, as studies to date have isolated E6AP from E. coli or insect cells.

Population-level estimates in timeframes for reaching cervical cancer (CC) elimination (ie, <4 cases per 100,000 women) in the United States may mask potential disparities in achieving elimination among sub-populations. We used three independent Cancer Intervention and Surveillance Modeling Network (CISNET) models to estimate differences in the time to CC elimination across seven strata of correlated screening and human papillomavirus vaccination uptake, based on national survey data. Compared to the average population, elimination was achieved ≥22 years earlier for the high-uptake strata and ≥27 years later for the most extreme low-uptake strata.

: The study aimed to investigate the efficacy of medication treatment with glycyrrhizinic acid for cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 1 lesions. : Women with histologically confirmed CIN 1 in cervical biopsies were included in the prospective study. Participants of the study group used glycyrrhizinic acid spray (Epigen spray) topically 10 days (Epigen 10-day subgroup) or 20 days (Epigen 20-day subgroup) per month for 6 months.
