The risks of secondary cancers associated with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection are as much as three times higher for survivors of pediatric, adolescent, and young adult cancer (PYAC) compared to the general population. Despite this, HPV vaccination rates among PYAC survivors remain low. Whereas pediatric oncology providers endorse HPV vaccination of PYAC survivors, many lack the resources or opportunities to intervene. The responsibility of HPV vaccination, therefore, falls to primary care providers and practices. This article provides an overview of the challenges with HPV vaccination that are distinct to PYAC survivors and discusses potential strategies to increase HPV vaccine coverage in this population.

Cervical cancer ranks as the fourth most common cancer among women globally, posing a significant mortality risk. Persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) is the primary instigator of cervical cancer development, often alongside coinfection with other viruses, precipitating various malignancies. This study aimed to explore recent biotechnological advances in understanding HPV infection dynamics, host interactions, and its role in oncogenesis.

Introduction: Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine uptake in the French Caribbean has remained below 25% since introduction in 2007, which is well behind national and international targets. Using a discrete choice experiment (DCE), we explored parental preferences around HPV vaccination and optimized communication content in a sample of parents of middle-school pupils in Guadeloupe.
Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey in public and private middle age schools in Guadeloupe in June 2023 using an online questionnaire.

Objective: The purpose of this review was to examine new evidence since our 2019 guidelines for cervical cancer (CC) screening in non-HIV immunocompromised persons and to provide updated recommendations based on literature review and expert opinion. In addition, human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine efficacy in these populations was reviewed.
Methods: A literature search was performed similar to our previous publication but was conducted through March 2023.

Aim This study evaluates university students' knowledge and attitudes toward Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination and cervical cancer screening and assesses the impact of educational interventions. Methods Participants from Osaka Metropolitan University, Osaka City University, and Osaka Prefecture University completed questionnaires before and after receiving educational materials, including cartoons and a video featuring medical professionals. We compared the correct answer rates for knowledge-related questions and evaluated changes in behavioral characteristics and attitudes toward HPV vaccination and cervical cancer screening before and after distributing the educational materials.
