Abstract:
Cervical cancer incidence and mortality have decreased dramatically over the past 50 years in countries with access and resources to provide frequent screening, evaluation, and treatment of high-grade cervical cancer precursors. For countries with fewer resources and many competing health concerns, cervical cancer remains one of the most lethal and common cancers among women. With the advent of newer technology, such as low-cost HPV vaccines and self-administered HPV tests, followed by simple well-known techniques such as VIA and cryotherapy, cervical cancer rates may well start to decrease worldwide.

Cancer Vaccines
Cancer vaccines come in two categories: preventive (prophylactic) and treatment (active). Preventive vaccines, such as the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, protect against viruses that cause certain...
Cancer-Critical Genes I: Proto-oncogenes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.
