Worldwide burden of cervical cancer in 2008

Abstract

In spite of effective screening methods, cervical cancer continues to be a major public health problem. New methodologies of cervical cancer prevention should be made available and accessible for women of all countries through well-organised programmes.

A Systematic Review of Economic Aspects of Cervical Cancer Screening Strategies Worldwide: Discrepancy between Economic Analysis and Policymaking

“…The incidence and mortality of cervical cancer has decreased due to cytology screening in many countries (Arbyn et al, 2011;Dickinson et al, 2012). To prevent only one death from cervical cancer many screening program recommend cytology screening every year for 10 years, this is the area that many researchers want to show the importance of finding optimal intervals for screening (Kobayashi et al, 2012).…”

Cytotoxic Effects of Phytophenolics from Caesalpinia mimosoides Lamk on Cervical Carcinoma Cell Lines through an Apoptotic Pathway

“…As compared to other cancers, the incidence of cervical carcinoma is relatively high (Arbyn et al, 2011). Certain human papillomavirus (HPV) types are carcinogenic in humans, and more than 99% of cervical cancers are associated with HPV infection.…”

Assessment of Cervical Cytological Data in Albanian Females

“…According to GLOBOCAN 2008, among the female population of 1.6 million, with an estimated 124 cases of cervical cancer, the crude incidence rate was 7.8/100,000 (world age-standardized incidence rate: 7.1/100,000); and with an estimated 49 deaths from cervical cancer the crude mortality rate was 3.1/100,000 (world age-standardized mortality rate: 2.1/100,000) (Arbyn et al 2011).…”
