Article Abstract
Background: Several reproductive factors, including parity and age at menarche, have been identified as risk factors for uterine cancers. However, the association between maternal age at first birth and uterine cancer remains conflicting.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included females aged 20 years and older with at least one live birth across eight National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) cycles (2003-2018). We used design-adjusted logistic regression, with multiple imputation for missing data, to explore the association of age at first birth and uterine cancer. As a sensitivity analysis, the sample was restricted to post-menopausal females; logistic regression analyses were repeated.
Results: Among 7095 participants, 104 had uterine cancer. The adjusted odds ratio (aOR) for uterine cancer for participants with a first live birth at ≥25 years was 0.66 (95 % confidence interval (CI): 0.33-1.35) compared to those with a first birth at <20 years. For participants with a first birth between 20-24 years, the aOR was 0.93 (95 % CI: 0.51-1.69). Multiple imputation and sensitivity analyses yielded similar non-significant results.
Conclusion: Our findings suggest no statistically significant association between maternal age at first live birth and uterine cancer, aligning with existing literature. Further research is needed to explore other reproductive factors and their role in uterine cancer risk.

Background: Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) bears the highest global burden of cervical cancer. Living with the disease is a complex experience, leading to significant changes across various biopsychosocial dimensions, which in turn affect the quality of life of affected women.
Aims: This review aimed to synthesize available scientific evidence on the life experiences of women diagnosed with cervical cancer in SSA in order to generate valuable insights into the care of the affected population.

This study explores effective treatment methods for chronic secondary lymphedema after radical cervical cancer surgery combined with pelvic lymphadenectomy. In cases where conservative treatment was ineffective, we investigated whether multiple injections of indocyanine green can effectively improve the outcomes of lymphatic-venous anastomosis under microscopy. Preoperative lymphatic imaging was used to localize functional vessels, guiding distal left lower limb lymphatic reconstruction.

Background: Hispanic/Latina women in the United States have high rates of cervical cancer and little is known regarding how sociocultural factors might be related to their cervical cancer prevention behaviors.
Purpose: Two studies examined correlates of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine initiation, HPV vaccine completion, ever screening for cervical cancer, and being up to date with screening among screening- and vaccine-eligible Hispanic/Latina women.
Methods: Study 1 examined sociodemographic correlates of these behaviors using data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System.

To maintain genomic stability, cells have evolved complex mechanisms collectively known as the DNA damage response (DDR), which includes DNA repair, cell cycle checkpoints, apoptosis, and gene expression regulation. Recent studies have revealed that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are pivotal regulators of the DDR. Beyond their established roles in recruiting repair proteins and modulating gene expression, emerging evidence highlights two particularly intriguing functions.
