In ovarian cancer, serum KLK6 and KLK10 may have much lower overall sensitivities than serum CA125. However, whereas serum KLK6 may improve the sensitivity of CA125, serum KLK10 may have the highest specificity among the 3 markers.
Direct visual inspection is feasible and had superior sensitivity compare with cervical cytologic analysis in detecting premalignant lesions of the cervix. Direct visual inspection can be used as a primary screening tool with a satisfactory low biopsy rate in low-resource settings or where cytologic services are suboptimal.
Female survivors of childhood malignancies had reduced ovarian reserve and reduced mean ovarian volume, especially those with older age, older age of menarche, and longer treatment duration.
Direct visual inspection after Lugol iodine painting is feasible and easy to perform with superior sensitivity to cervical cytology and DVI-A in detecting cervical premalignant and malignant lesions. Direct visual inspection after Lugol iodine painting can be used as an efficient primary screening tool with a satisfactory low biopsy rate in low resources settings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
