Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most deadly cancer in the world, and it is caused by infection of high-risk subtypes of Human PapillomaVirus (HPV) in most cases. The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence oncogenic HPV in cervical cancer patients in Riau Province Indonesia and to determine the clinical manifestation of HPV in cervical cancer patients in Riau Province Indonesia.
Methods: This research was a descriptive study conducted at Arifin Achmad General Hospital Riau from February to August 2018 which aimed to analyze HPV genotype prevalence oncogenic of cervical cancer patients.
Results: This study showed out 86 of 110 women (78.1%) were found HPV positive, and the most common genotype of HPV was HPV 16 (38.2%). The average age of cervical cancer patient was 50 years old, and the average number of parities was 4 times. The majority of participants were married at the age before 20 years (77.3%) and had low educational background (64.5%). Vaginal bleeding happened in more than half of the participant as major clinical manifestation (72.7%), followed by fluor albus (72.7%), pelvic pain (60.2%) and fatigue (65.9%).
Conclusion: The most common HPV genotype in Riau Province was HPV type 16 and the most common clinical symptoms of cervical cancer patient were vaginal bleeding, fluor albus, pelvic pain and fatigue.

Background: The metal oxide nanoparticles possess unique properties such as biological compatibility, superior reactivity, and capacity to develop reactive oxygen species, due to this they have drawn significant interest in cancer treatment. The various MONPs such as cerium oxide, Copper oxide, Iron oxide, Titanium dioxide, and Zinc oxide have been investigated for several types of cancers including brain, breast, cervical, colon, leukemia, liver, lung, melanoma, ovarian, and prostate cancers. However, traditional physiochemical synthetic methods for MONPs commonly include toxic materials, a major concern that raises questions regarding their biocompatibility and safety.

Resistance to the currently available treatment paradigms is one of the main factors that contributes to poor outcomes in patients with advanced cervical cancer. Novel targeted therapy approaches might enhance the patient's treatment outcome and are urgently needed for this malignancy. While chimeric-antigen receptor (CAR)-based adoptive immunotherapy displays a promising treatment strategy for liquid cancers, their use against cervical cancer is largely unexplored.

Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a key factor in gynecological oncology. This narrative review investigates the complex connection between HPV and various gynecological cancers. For a comprehensive exploration, we examined the association between persistent HPV infection and cervical cancer and its global prevalence.

Purpose: The National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) provides access to timely breast and cervical cancer screening and diagnostic services to women who have low incomes and are uninsured or underinsured. Documenting the number of women eligible and the proportion of eligible women who receive NBCCEDP-funded services is important for identifying opportunities to increase screening and diagnostic services among those who would not otherwise have access.
Methods: Using the Census Bureau's Small Area Health Insurance Estimates data, we estimated the number of women who met the NBCCEDP eligibility criteria based on age, income, and insurance status.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play vital roles in the development and progression of various tumors through multiple mechanisms. Among these, HOTTIP (HOXA transcript at the distal tip) stands out as an intriguing candidate with diverse functions in several malignancies, including breast cancer and gynecologic cancers such as ovarian, cervical, and endometrial cancers, which are significant global health concerns. HOTTIP interacts with key signaling pathways associated with these cancers, including Wnt/β-catenin, PI3K/AKT, and MEK/ERK pathways, enhancing their activation and downstream effects.
