Cervical cancer is a public health problem of extensive clinical importance. Excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) was found to be a promising biomarker of cervical cancer over the years. At present, there is no relevant review article that summarizes such evidence. In this review, nineteen eligible studies were included for evaluation and data extraction. Based on the data from clinical and experimental studies, ERCC1 plays a key role in the progression of carcinoma of the uterine cervix and the therapeutic response of chemoradiotherapy. The majority of the included studies (13/19, 68%) suggested that ERCC1 played a pro-oncogenic role in both early-stage and advanced cervical cancer. High expression of ERCC1 was found to be associated with the poor survival rates of the patients. ERCC1 polymorphism analyses demonstrated that ERCC1 might be a useful tool for predicting the risk of cervical cancer and the treatment-related toxicities. Experimental studies indicated that the biological effects exerted by ERCC1 in cervical cancer might be mediated by its associated genes and affected signaling pathways (i.e., XPF, TUBB3, and. To move towards clinical applications by targeting ERCC1 in cervical cancer, more clinical, , and investigations are still warranted in the future.

Bacterial vaginosis is associated with transcriptomic changes but not higher concentrations of cervical leukocytes in a study of women at high risk for HIV acquisition.
J Infect Dis
January 2025
Department of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA.
Background: The association between bacterial vaginosis (BV) and increased HIV acquisition risk may be related to concentrations of HIV-susceptible immune cells in the cervix.
Methods: Participants (31 with BV and 30 with normal microbiota) underwent cervical biopsy at a single visit. Immune cells were quantified and sorted using flow cytometry (N=55), localization assessed by immunofluorescence (N=16), and function determined by bulk RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) of live CD45+ cells (N=21).
Spatial Epidemiology of Human Papillomavirus Screening Coverage in Mexico, 2013-2019.
Asian Pac J Cancer Prev
January 2025
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.
Development of Mobile Application Based System for Improving Population Based Cancer Screening by Community Health Workers.
Asian Pac J Cancer Prev
January 2025
Cachar Cancer Hospital and Research Center, NS Avenue, Meherpur, Silchar, Assam, India.
Objective: Cancer remains a leading cause of morbidity and mortality globally, with India experiencing a significant cancer burden. Effective population-based cancer screening is crucial for early detection and reduction of cancer-related deaths. This study aims to develop a mobile application-based Cancer Screening and Surveillance System (CSMS) to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of population-based cancer screening by community health workers (CHWs).

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.
