Abstract

To explore the optimal diagnosis and treatment methods for grade III cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CINIII). Ninety-eight cases of CINIII initially diagnosed by colposcopical biopsy in our hospital from 2000 to 2008 were analyzed retrospectively in terms of the diagnosis, treatment and outcome. All the patients received cervical conization including 53 with cold knife conization and 45 with LEEP conization. Obvious differences were noted between cervical conization and colposcopical biopsy results in 15 cases (15.3%) diagnosed to be invasive carcinoma. Fifty-two patients received hysterectomy after conization. A significant difference occurred in pathological diagnosis between cervical conization and hysterectomy groups (P<0.01). There were low-grade cervical intraepithelial lesions in most cases of hysterectomy group and only 4 cases had CINIII. Thirty-one patients refused hysterectomy for concerns of fertility or because of a young age and were followed up after conization. One patient with cervical carcinoma in situ experienced recurrence in 3 years and received a second hysterectomy. The other patients including those in hysterectomy group showed no recurrence till now. Cervical conization is the golden standard for th...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
