“…On the other hand, in Central Africa more precisely in Cameroon, the prevalence of the HPV 16 and HPV 18 genotypes represented 30.8% [31]. It also emerges that HPV 45 was very present in our study (33%) which is in line with certain studies [32][33][34][35], which had shown that other genotypes (HPV45, 58, 52) had been reported as the second most common.…”

BackgroundCervical cancer is the fourth commonest cancer affecting female population in the world, and the seventh most common cancer in the general population worldwide [1]. The disease is also the fourth leading cause of cancer death among women with 311,000 associated deaths in 2018. The highest regional incidence and mortality rates are seen in Africa, especially in Eastern (Malawi, with the highest mortality rate; and Zimbabwe) and Western Africa (Guinea, Burkina Faso, and Mali). Globally, it was previously admitted that low-and middle-income countries account for almost 90% of the burden of cervical cancer [2] due to insufficient awareness, lack of effective screening programs, and late clinical presentation. In addition, reports of trends in cervical cancer mortality in these countries have been limited by poor data quality and inaccurate estimates of population [3]. Additionally, in most of these countries, especially in sub-Saharan Africa, there is no cancer registry. Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a causative agent of cervical cancer that has been detected in 99.7% of cervical squamous cell carcinoma and in 94-100% of cervical adenocarcinoma [4]. HPV is transmitted through sexual intercourse or skin-to-skin genital contact [5], and persistent infection with high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) is the major cause of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and invasive cervical cancer [6][7][8]. In general, most infections resolve on their own, as the immune response controls infection and prevents progression to precancerous lesions [9]. Papillomaviruses are circular, nonenveloped double-stranded DNA viruses with a genome length of 8 kb. More than 200 HPV genotypes have been reported and grouped into cutaneous and mucosal types according to their site of infection, and then subdivided into high risk (HR) and low risk (LR) types, depending on their association with a particular infection.

“…There are several risk factors that can cause cervical cancer including maternal age, parity, the use of oral contraceptives, education level, smoking, and the use of sanitary napkins. Cervical cancer can be prevented by conducting routine check-up, not having intimate relationships with alternating partners, not having intimate relationships during menstruation period and avoiding having sex before marriage or at a very young age, living a healthy lifestyle, such as maintaining the genital hygiene and avoid smoking, and taking routine screening check [11,15] Based on table 1, the incidence of cervical cancer in Anutapura Hospital, women who have their first marriage age of < 20 years old (high risk) experiencing cervical cancer incidence 4.1 times greater than women who have their first marriage age of ≥ 20 years old (low risk). Getting married at the age of 20 is considered too young to have sexual relationship and is at risk of cervical cancer 10-12 times greater than those who are married at the age of > 20 years old.…”

“…The incidence factor of cervical cancer in Anutapura Hospital on the risk of women who have a history of using oral contraceptives of ≥ 5 years (high risk) experiencing cervical cancer incidence 3, 6 times greater than women with a history of using oral contraceptives <5 years (low risk) [11,18]. The mechanism of using oral contraceptives increases the risk of cervical cancer is still under debate, as it hypothesizes that the thickness of mucus in the cervix due to the use of birth control pills causes cervical cancer.…”

Background: Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of death after breast cancer in women in developing countries. In 2017, there were 2,8% cases of patients with cervical cancer in Indonesia and 0,8% cases in Central Sulawesi. The medical record data of Anutapura Hospital of Palu shows that the incidence of cervical cancer in 2016-2017 was still the biggest disease that occurred in the obstetrics and gynecology department with a total of 36 cases. Objectives: The objectives of this study were to determine the risk of first marriage age, parity, use of oral contraceptives, education level, smoking and use of sanitary napkins at childbearing age on the incidence of cervical cancer in Anutapura Hospital of Palu. Research Patient and Method: This research used quantitative method with case control approach. There were 62 people taken as the case sample and 62 people as the control with age matching. The sampling was conducted using total sampling method. The data used were secondary data in the form of yearly medical record and primary data in the form of interviews and questionnaires. Results: The data analysis conducted using the Odd Ratio test on the results of research showed the followings; the first marriage age (OR=4

Awareness of and Support for HPV Vaccination Among Pacific Islander Women in Southern California

Pacific Islander (PI) women experience disproportionately high rates of cervical cancer and mortality and have lower rates of Pap testing. Since up to 70% of cervical cancers could be prevented by being vaccinated for human papilloma virus (HPV), this crosssectional study explored the predictors of HPV and vaccine awareness, receipt of the vaccine, and attitudes toward vaccinating children among adult PI women in southern California, who historically have low rates of HPV vaccination and high rates of cervical cancer that could be prevented with HPV vaccination. Participants (n=148) consist a subsample of Chamorro, Samoan, and Tongan women, ages 21 to 65 years, who were in a larger randomized community study to promote Pap testing. Overall, younger age and higher American acculturation were significantly associated with ever hearing about HPV and the vaccine. However, American acculturation was also associated with negative attitudes toward vaccinating their children for HPV. This paper provides preliminary insights into barriers and facilitators to HPV vaccination among PIs in the USA and also informs the development of educational programs to reduce cervical cancer incidence and mortality in this underserved population.
