AI Article Synopsis
- The study analyzed the medical records of 59 rabbits with various uterine issues, with common symptoms including vaginal discharge, mammary masses, and poor health.
- Most rabbits underwent imaging studies, and 45 had ovariohysterectomy, while 14 were euthanized due to health issues, with histological exams performed on all genital tracts.
- The findings revealed endometrial hyperplasia in 24 rabbits and adenocarcinoma in 18, often occurring together, and noted that rabbits with uterine disorders had an average age of around 4.5 to 6.1 years.
Article Abstract
The medical records of 59 rabbits with uterine disorders were assessed retrospectively. Ten animals were presented because of vaginal discharge; the reasons for presentation of the remaining 49 rabbits included mammary masses, skin tumours, anorexia and poor general health. All the rabbits underwent a clinical examination, and 54 were examined by ultrasonography and/or radiography. Forty-five rabbits underwent ovariohysterectomy and the other 14 rabbits were euthanased, three because of pulmonary metastases and 11 because of very poor health unrelated to their uterine disease. The genital tracts of all the rabbits were submitted for histological examination. Endometrial hyperplasia (in 24 rabbits) and adenocarcinoma (in 18 rabbits) were the most common uterine disorders; in a further 11 cases both conditions were observed. The remaining six rabbits had other uterine disorders. Four rabbits that were presented with adenocarcinoma of the mammary gland were found to have concurrent uterine disorders. The mean age of the rabbits with endometrial hyperplasia was 4.5 years, and that of the rabbits with adenocarcinoma was 6.1 years. Four rabbits had ovarian tumours.

Histological differences among thrombi in thrombotic diseases.
Curr Opin Hematol
January 2025
Department of Pathology, Section of Oncopathology and Morphological Pathology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Miyazaki, Miyazaki, Japan.
Purpose Of Review: This review aims to summarize the histological differences among thrombi in acute myocardial infarction, ischemic stroke, venous thromboembolism, and amniotic fluid embolism, a newly identified thrombosis.
Recent Findings: Acute coronary thrombi have a small size, are enriched in platelets and fibrin, and show the presence of fibrin and von Willebrand factor, but not collagen, at plaque rupture sites. Symptomatic deep vein thrombi are large and exhibit various phases of time-dependent histological changes.
Spatial Epidemiology of Human Papillomavirus Screening Coverage in Mexico, 2013-2019.

Directorate of Medical Benefits, Mexican Social Security Institute, Mexico City, Mexico.
Objective: We aimed to assess the coverage of a Human Papillomavirus (HPV) screening program for each of the 32 federal states of Mexico, as well as the spatial patterns for HPV infections from 2013 to 2019.
Methods: We conducted an exploratory, ecological study on data from a national health program in Mexico during 2013-2019. Adjusted rates per 100,000 females aged 25-64 years were estimated and georeferenced at the national and state level to assess the coverage of the screening program and positive detections of HPV infections.
Breaking Barriers in Cancer Screening: Understanding Participant Dropout in Breast and Cervical Programs in Morocco.
Asian Pac J Cancer Prev

National School of Public Health, Rabat, Morocco.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate loss to follow-up (LFU) rates within breast and cervical cancer screening programs in Kenitra-Morocco, identifying contributing factors from both patient and healthcare worker perspectives to enhance care continuity.
Methods: The study was a non-experimental, mixed-methods design conducted in three-phases. We started by identifying LFU women and their characteristics from medical records, interviewing LFU women to ascertain reasons for discontinuation, and surveying healthcare workers for perceived determinants of LFU through semi-structured questionnaires.
Vacuolated Parabasal Cells in Papanicolaou Smears Are Cellular Changes Caused by Human Papillomavirus 16 Infection.
J Med Virol

Department of Medical Technology, Faculty of Health Sciences, Kyorin University, Tokyo, Japan.
In cervical cancer screening, cytology is used as a triage test to refer high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV)-positive women for colposcopy, but its accuracy is inadequate. The present study aimed to demonstrate that the presence of atypical cells with large vacuoles in the cytoplasm of parabasal cells, referred to as vacuolated parabasal cells (VPCs), which are observed in the Pap smears of HPV-positive women, is associated with specific HPV genotypes. Among 2175 patients, 310 with a single HR-HPV infection and cytological diagnosis of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) or atypical squamous cells not excluding HSIL (ASC-H) were included, of which 86 were infected with HPV16.
