Cervical dysplasia persistence/recurrence has a great impact on women's health and quality of life. In this study, we investigated whether a prognostic nomogram may improve risk assessment after primary conization. This is a retrospective multi-institutional study based on charts of consecutive patients undergoing conization between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2014. A nomogram assessing the importance of different variables was built. A cohort of patients treated between 1 January 2015 and 30 June 2016 was used to validate the nomogram. A total of 2966 patients undergoing primary conization were analyzed. The median (range) patient age was 40 (18-89) years. At 5-year of follow-up, 6% of patients (175/2966) had developed a persistent/recurrent cervical dysplasia. Median (range) recurrence-free survival was 18 (5-52) months. Diagnosis of CIN3, presence of HR-HPV types, positive endocervical margins, HPV persistence, and the omission of HPV vaccination after conization increased significantly and independently of the risk of developing cervical dysplasia persistence/recurrence. A nomogram weighting the impact of all variables was built with a C-Index of 0.809. A dataset of 549 patients was used to validate the nomogram, with a C-index of 0.809. The present nomogram represents a useful tool for counseling women about their risk of persistence/recurrence after primary conization. HPV vaccination after conization is associated with a reduced risk of CIN2+.

Cardiospondylocarpofacial syndrome (CSCFS) is an extremely rare autosomal dominant disorder resulting from variant in the gene, which encodes the transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1). Only 26 cases of CSCFS have been reported worldwide. The main manifestations are growth retardation, hypotonia, dysmorphic facial features, skeletal and limb abnormalities, cardiac septal defects with valve dysplasia, cardiomyopathy, and deafness with inner ear malformations.

species play a fundamental role in maintaining a healthy vaginal microbiota and have been increasingly recognized for their protective effects against high-risk human papillomavirus (HR-HPV) infection and the progression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN). These beneficial bacteria contribute to host defense through multiple mechanisms, including the production of lactic acid that sustains a low vaginal pH, enhancement of epithelial barrier integrity via E-cadherin regulation, and modulation of immune signaling pathways such as interferon responses and NF-κB activity. strains exert anti-inflammatory effects by downregulating pro-inflammatory cytokines and interfering with oncogenic pathways including Wnt/β-catenin and the expression of HPV E6 and E7 proteins.

In 2022, an estimated 660 000 women were diagnosed with cervical cancer worldwide and about 350 000 women died from the disease. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections. However, only a small percentage of high-risk (HR) HPV infections progress to cervical precancer and cancer.

Currently, there is no relevant literature specifically discussing the human papillomavirus (HPV) negative conversion rate following Hiporfin photodynamic therapy (PDT) in HPV-associated high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) of the female lower reproductive tract. Our study aims to fill this gap. Prospective study of 91 patients aged 37.

Background: MURCS association, an acronym for Müllerian duct aplasia/hypoplasia, congenital renal agenesis/ectopia, and cervical somite dysplasia, presents unique anaesthetic challenges, particularly for airway control due to cervical spine anomalies. This case report adds to the limited literature by detailing airway management strategies in a paediatric patient with MURCS, emphasising the need for thorough preoperative evaluation and curated planning.
Case Summary: This report describes the successful anaesthetic and airway management of a 6-year-old girl with MURCS undergoing dental extraction.
