Purpose: To define mechanisms underlying the regulation of CDC25A by miR-34a-5p in cervical cancer (CC).

Methods: Quantifications of miR-34a-5p and CDC25A levels were performed in 68 CC tissues and matched controls. CC cell lines HeLa and SiHa were transfected to monitor their biological behavior changes.

Results: Low-expressed miR-34a-5p and up-regulated CDC25A were noted in CC. Either overexpression of miR-34a-5p or inhibition of CDC25A blocked the growth and migration of HeLa and SiHa cells, resulting in an increase in apoptosis (p<0.05), while inhibition of miR-34a-5p or overexpression of CDC25A promoted tumor growth. Dual-luciferase reporter (DLR) assay and cell transfection identified the targeting relationship between miR-34a-5p and CDC25A, and correlation analysis revealed a negative association between them in CC. Co-transfection assays showed that overexpression of CDC25A reversed the inhibition of miR-34a-5p on CC growth and migration.

Conclusion: miR-34a-5p mediates growth, migration and other malignant behaviors in CC by regulating CDC25A.

Importance: Cervical cancer screening is a crucial public health intervention, but screening disparities exist for women with physical disabilities (WWPD).

Objective: To explore the experiences of WWPD with both traditional speculum examination-based screening and at-home self-sampling for cervical cancer screening.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This qualitative study enrolled 56 WWPD to test self-sampling kits, provide feedback via a survey, and participate in a qualitative interview.

Objective: This research was undertaken to identify risk factors for the involvement of sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) in cases of endometrial cancer.

Methods: From February 2016 to April 2021, the cases of 874 women with endometrial cancer treated with the SLN algorithm at 11 institutions were analyzed in this retrospective study. Clinical and pathologic data were reviewed, and logistic regression was applied to identify predictive factors for SLN involvement.

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the role of pre-sacral sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) in patients with uterine cancer.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study includes patients with endometrial or cervical cancer who underwent minimally invasive indocyanine green SLN mapping at the Bern University Hospital from December 2012 to December 2022. A complete ultra-staging of the SLNs was performed in all cases.
