Objective: To explore the the correlations of p16INK4A (p16) and survivin expressions with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical squamous cell carcinoma.
Methods: The p16 and survivin expressions were detected in 50 cervical squamous cell carcinoma tissues, 150 various grades of CIN tissues and 30 normal cervical tissues using immunohistochemistry. All data were analyzed applying SPSS 17.0 software.
Results: The p16 and survivin expressions showed the presence of statistical significance in cervical cancer, CINI, CINII, CINIII and normal cervical tissues (P<0.05), and the comparison also revealed statistical significance among groups (all P<0.05); the p16 and survivin expressions were positively correlated with the grade of cervical diseases (both P<0.05). Moreover, p16 protein was associated with CIN grade and lymph node metastases in cervical cancer (all P<0.05); survivin protein was also related with clinical stages, CIN grade and lymph node metastases (all P<0.05); the p16 and survivin expressions were positively correlated with cervical cancer (r=0.854, P<0.001), and associated with poor prognosis of cervical cancer.
Conclusion: Briefly, p16 and survivin expression may be correlated with the clinico-pathological and prognosis of cervical cancer.

Article Synopsis
- Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women globally, and this study introduces a deep learning framework to predict molecular subtypes in HPV-positive cervical squamous cell carcinoma using histology slides.
- The research analyzed three cohorts with 545 patients, demonstrating that the Digital-CMS scores can effectively predict both disease-specific and disease-free survival outcomes.
- Furthermore, the study found significant differences in the tumor microenvironment between subtypes, highlighting potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets that could guide clinical applications for better patient management.

Background: Australia has the highest global incidence of keratinocyte cancer. Surgically managing keratinocyte cancers in regional Australia presents geographic and economic challenges, which necessitate cost-effective resource allocation. Previous work has outlined the cost benefit for outpatient day surgical excision of head and neck skin lesions that can be closed primarily.

: Cervical mesonephric adenocarcinomas (MNACs) are among the rarest neoplasms of the female genital tract. Unlike the majority of cervical cancers, which are predominantly squamous in origin and strongly associated with HPV seropositivity, MNACs are distinct in both histology and pathophysiology. Despite their unique characteristics, MNACs have historically been managed in parallel with squamous cell carcinomas, resulting in a lack of optimised, evidence-based treatment protocols.

Head and neck cancer is a deadly disease with over 500,000 cases annually worldwide. Metastatic head and neck cancer accounts for a large proportion of the mortality associated with this disease. Many advances have been made in our understanding of the mechanisms of metastasis.

Background/objectives: Most studies on the interaction between the immune system and cancer focus on T-cells, whereas studies on tumor-infiltrating B-lymphocytes (TIL-Bs) are still underrepresented. The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic impact of TIL-Bs in early- and advanced-stage oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC).
Methods: In total, 222 OCSCCs were studied.
