We evaluated high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) DNA testing for high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) lesions by cobas HPV test and diagnostic HPV16/18 genotyping in Japanese women with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions. Of 357 patients, HR-HPV positivity prevalence was 75.6%, and 21.3% had grade 2 or higher CIN lesions (CIN2+), with the highest prevalence at 30 to 34 years. Negative predictive values of HR-HPV for CIN2+ in our patients were 93.1% (any age) and 94.9% (40-50 years). Absolute risk for CIN2+ in HR-HPV positive and HPV16/18 positive individuals was 25.9 and 35.1, respectively. Relative risk for CIN2+ lesions was 5.1 for HPV16/18 positive versus HR-HPV negative, and 3.8 for HR-HPV positive versus HR-HPV negative women. Predictive values of CIN2+ positive were higher for HPV16/18 positive women (any age) than 12 other HPV positive-genotypes, and highest (50%) at 40-50 years. The HPV16/18 genotyping might prevent women (>40 years) at risk of high-grade CIN lesions from undergoing unnecessary colposcopy/overtreatment of nonprogressive lesions.

Objective: The Enduring Consensus Cervical Cancer Screening and Management Guidelines Committee developed recommendations for the use of extended genotyping results in cervical cancer prevention programs.

Methods: Risks of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 or worse were calculated using data obtained with the Onclarity HPV Assay from large cohorts. Management recommendations were based on clinical action thresholds developed for the 2019 American Society for Colposcopy and Cervical Pathology Risk-Based Management Consensus Guidelines.

Objectives: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an essential role in cancer biology. Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade 3 (CIN3) is the most severe precancerous lesion of cervical cancer. However, the mechanism of multiple lncRNAs in CIN3 has not been studied in-depth and is worth exploring.

: This study aims to assess the immediate risk of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade (CIN)3+ lesions in women with abnormal cervical glandular cytology. : A total of 403 women with abnormal cervical glandular cytology who underwent simultaneous HPV genotyping and cervical biopsy at the Zhejiang University School of Medicine Women's Hospital, China, between 2016 and 2020, were included in this study. The probability of CIN3+ lesions among women in each group was further analyzed.

Evaluating PAX1/JAM3 methylation for triage in HPV 16/18-infected women.

Article Synopsis
  • The study evaluates the effectiveness of the CISCER test (PAX1/JAM3 methylation) as a triage method for women who test positive for HPV 16/18, aiming to minimize unnecessary colposcopy referrals.
  • Significant increases in PAX1 and JAM3 methylation levels were found in women with severe cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2+), demonstrating that the CISCER test outperformed cytology in identifying these cases.
  • The CISCER test achieved high sensitivity (89.0%) and specificity (95.3%) and accurately detected all cervical cancer patients, suggesting it could be a reliable tool to reduce over-referrals and overtreatment in HPV-positive women.

Background: In patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and multivessel coronary artery disease, the optimal management strategy for non-culprit lesions is a subject of ongoing debate. There has been an increasing use of physiology-guidance to assess the extent of occlusion in non-culprit lesions, and hence the need for stenting. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) is commonly used as a technique.
