Buffered Lidocaine for Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedures (LEEPs)
Uterine Cervical DysplasiaWomen undergoing a LEEP procedure who receive lidocaine buffered with sodium bicarbonate for their cervical block will experience less injection pain than women who receive plain lidocaine.
HPV-cytology Testing Versus Cytology Testing for the Detection of High Grade CIN
Cervical CancerCervical Intraepithelial NeoplasiaTo compare the effects of conventional cytology testing with concommitant HPV-cytology testing for the detection of high grade cervical lesions in primary cervical cancer screening in Hong Kong Hypotheses: There is a significant difference in the number of CIN2+ cases detected between the cytology testing group and the cytology-HPV co-testing group at baseline. Significantly more CIN2+ cases will be detected at the second round of screening among participants with normal cytology result in the control arm than those with normal cytology and negative HPV results in the intervention arm.
Measurement of Digital Colposcopy for Fluorescence Spectroscopy of Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia...
Cervical CancerThe overall objective of this study is to identify potential improvements for a noninvasive method of diagnosing dysplasia and neoplasia in the cervix using digital colposcopy for colposcopy for fluorescence spectroscopy. Other Objectives: To measure digital fluorescence and reflectance images in vivo of sites in the human cervix. To evaluate the effect of acetic acid in the image contrast obtained. Compare the device performance to colposcopy and pathologic analysis of tissue removed at colposcopy.
Identifying Genes That Predict Risk of Developing Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia or Invasive...
Cervical CancerPrecancerous ConditionRATIONALE: Finding certain changes in genes may help doctors predict which patients are at risk of developing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or invasive cervical cancer and may help the study of cancer in the future. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying genes that may predict which patients are at risk of developing cervical intraepithelial neoplasia or invasive cervical cancer.

Prognostic Value of Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Detection in Cervical Intra-epithelial Neoplasia...
CIN2/3 RecurrenceCIN2/3 have been increased for many years and mainly concern women aged 25-29 years. They are subsequent to a persistent HPV infection and are classically treated by conization. Recurrences occur in 7 to 18 % of cases, mainly after CIN3 management during the first 2 years of follow-up. Follow-up is crucial to detect and treat recurrence and to select high risk women who might develop cervical cancer. Colposcopy and cytology have been recommended since 1989 by French ANAES, but these methods have poor sensitivity and specificity. However, DNA HPV testing is more sensitive and has demonstrated a very high negative predictive value, while specificity and positive predictive value remain average. Other HPV markers like genotyping, viral load and integration begin to be used in screening but have not been investigated in CIN2/3 follow-up to assess the values of various HPV markers which predict CIN2/3 recurrence after conization. The primary objective is to describe HPV expression (genotyping, viral load, mRNA E6 and E7) at the time of conization and during the follow-up period (6, 12, 24 months) and to assess the prognostic value of HPV 16 expression (viral load, mRNA E6 and E7) to determine the risk of CIN2/3 recurrence after conization, compared to the other clinical and virological risk factors.

Cervical CancerCervical Intraepithelial NeoplasiaA. To investigate the relationship between serum titer of anti-HPV16 antibody and clinicopathological factors of cervical cancer patients. B. To investigate that if the serum titer of anti-HPV16 antibody could be a prognostic factor in the cervical cancer patients. C. To investigate the serum titer of anti-HPV16 antibody in HPV16-infected populations with various disease status such as infection only, precancerous lesion, and early and advanced cervical cancer.
