Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Managing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) involves both treatment and follow-up, with HPV eradication strategies focused on preventing future infections through vaccination and early detection by regular screening. Every year, approximately 600,000 women worldwide are diagnosed with cervical cancer, and an estimated 340,000 women died from the disease in 2020. In Japan, however, the number of cervical cancer cases among women aged 20 to 39 is on the rise, alongside an increasing mortality rate. We invite you to submit research to this Special Issue titled “Recent Advances and Strategies for the Management of CIN and HPV Eradication Starategies for the Prevention of Uterine Cervical Cancer”, exploring the central theme of preventing uterine cervical cancer, divided into primary and secondary prevention. Primary prevention focuses on the use of HPV vaccines, while secondary prevention involves the diagnosis and management of CIN. We invite manuscripts related to vaccine trials (both preclinical and clinical) and strategies for developing more effective HPV vaccines. Our objective is to compile a range of research addressing the various aspects of HPV that could contribute to more effective strategies for eradicating HPV infection. Potential research areas include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Diagnosis of CIN;
- Gynecologic and obstetric risks;
- Therapeutic effects of treatment.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Vaccines.
