Epidemiological Profile

Objective: to determine the cervical cancer epidemiological profile in Feira de Santana city, from 2000 to 2004. Methods: documental research, quantitative methods, descriptive, whose data collection were in annual reports issued by the Municipal Secretariat of Health through the Information System in Cancer of the Uterine Cervix (SISCOLO). The collection instrument was a form consolidated. Descriptive analysis was conducted using statistical tests, calculating the incidence, relative frequency and mortality rates by age. The results are presented in tables. Results: regards to Cervical Intra-epithelial Neoplasia I (CIN I) the age group between 20-39 years old had the greatest number of cases, but in relation to CIN II the age group between 20-39 years old not presented cases in 2004. In CIN III there was an increase in the percentage distribution in the age group between 20-39 years old, there was a decrease in women between 40-59 years old and over 60 years old there were cases only occurred in 2002. The hospital morbidity predominated in the age group between 40-59 years. The absolute frequency shows decrease in the number of cases of hospitalization. Deaths by cervical cancer were predominant in the age group over 60 years old. Conclusion: to know cervical cancer epidemiological variables is fundamental because it makes possible to draw actions which contribute to the women’s health promotion.

Epidemiological Profile

Background: This study aims were to develop the epidemiological profile of patients who received Pap smears during pregnancy, to describe aspects of cytological smears performed in pregnant women and to describe the therapeutic management in case of anomalies in the cervical smear during pregnancy.Methods: This was a prospective, descriptive and analytical study conducted from January 15, 2015 to June 31, 2015 at maternity of Nabil Choucair Health Centre and the Institute of Social Hygiene in Dakar. The Pap smear was performed in all patients who had given their consent to the experience. The parameters studied concerned socio-demographic aspects, gynecological and obstetric background, gestational age at the time of collection, cervico-vaginal smear results, diagnostic and therapeutic management of cytological and histological abnormalities. The data collected on a survey sheet prepared for this purpose were entered and analyzed through the version 3.5.3 of Epi info software.Results: During the study period, 67 pregnant women had received a Pap smear. The epidemiological profile of our patient was a paucipare gestity with an average of 3 with extremes ranging from 1 to 7, an average parity of 2.4 with extremes ranging from 1 to 7. The mean age of pregnancy was 15.4 weeks of amenorrhea (range of 6 and 32 weeks). Only 5 patients (7.4%) had already received a cervical-vaginal swab before the study. The smear was normal in 88.7% of the cases but got abnormalities in 11.3% of the cases. The abnormalities were mainly found in squamous cells and were divided into low-grade lesions (57.1%) and skew-cell abnormalities whose meaning was undetermined (42.1%). Colposcopy was performed in 8 patients. Colposcopy was normal and satisfactory in 4 patients (50%) and identified as atypical grade 1 transformation in 2 patients (25%) and an atypical grade 2 transformation in 2 patients (25%). From a therapeutic point of view, diathermic loop conduction associated with strapping was performed in one patient (12.5%) for severe dysplasia. In postpartum, all dysplastic cervical lesions diagnosed during pregnancy had declined.Conclusions: In the context of our study, where there is no organized screening policy for cervical cancer, antenatal clinics are an excellent screening opportunity to seize.

Epidemiological Profile

Abstract Chronic degenerative illnesses have currently taken on a great predominance at the epidemiological profile, by affecting specially the elderly population. Among such diseases, Cancer has been studied through the broadening of information, which brought scientific advancement for the disease care. However, such topics constantly focus on statistic data, setting the lifetime story of those people aside. This paper aimed at understanding the process of sickness among elderly women and its development up to the diagnostics of uterus cancer through getting closer to their lifetime stories. It is about a qualitative research whose methodology used was that of life history. The methodological choice aimed at providing an intersection in the lives of different women, giving visibility to their memories. Five elderly women between 62 and 89 years old participated in the research, which turns into distinctive lifetime stories, with their singularities, though they interweave before the hard reality faced by them along their aging. Their relationship with their getting-sick development is surrounded by fear into different ways. It is necessary, therefore, to look to the elderly women uniquely, regarding the social relations that interfere during their lives and determine their aging.

Chronic Cervicitis

There are more supports for the view that human papillomavirus (HPV) infection might be an etiological factor in the development of cervical cancer when the association of persistent condylomata is considered. Biopsies from 318 cases with squamous cell carcinoma of uterine cervix, 48 with cervical and vulvar condylomata, 14 with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN), 34 with chronic cervicitis and 24 normal cervical epithelium were collected from 5 geographic regions of China with different cervical cancer mortalities. All specimens were prepared for Dot blot, Southern blot and in situ DNA-DNA hybridizations by using HPV-11, 16, 18 DNA labelled with 32P and 3H as probes to detect viral homologous sequences in samples. Among them, 32 cases with cervical cancer, 27 with condyloma and 10 normal cervical epitheliums were randomly chosen for comparative EM observation. The results showed that: 1), 192 out of 318 (60.4%) cases of cervical cancer were positive for HPV-16 DNA probe (Table I)
