A significant protective association was observed between the presence of the G(*)0103 allele and SIL and between the G0101/G0104 genotype and HSIL in the group of patients compared to control.

A substantial subset of patients with ASC-H interpretations is associated with an appreciable risk of clinically significant cervical disease. p16/Ki67 dual stain can provide additional valuable information that may lead to higher-quality management of women with ASC-H, especially when initial colposcopy or biopsy results do not showHSIL lesions.

A total of 492 Caucasian women, 196 pathologic [high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions and invasive cervical cancer (HSIL + ICC)], ranging in age from 18 to 81 years, were phenotyped for plasma Hp using a polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis method.
A very high expression of nuclear factor-kappa B protein (nuclear p50, encoded by NFKB1) in high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion and invasive cancers has been observed.
AAV appears to interact with HPV to reduce SIL risk; relative to the HPV-/AAV+ exposure, the respective aORs for HSIL and HPV+/AAV-, HPV+/AAV+, and HPV-/AAV+ were 17.0, 6.9, and 3.5.

Accuracy analyses indicated that high miR-205 expression had a significantly higher specificity to high-risk HPV testing, and a sensitivity similar to that of high-risk HPV testing to predict CIN2+ and CIN3+ in women with LSIL, but not those with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions.
All ASCUS cases were subclassified according to TBS 1991 into the following categories: favor reactive (ASCUS-R), favor LSIL (ASCUS-L), favor HSIL (ASCUS-H), and not otherwise specified (ASCUS-NOS).

Although non- significant, there was an increasing trend in the miR-155 fold expression from negative samples to HSIL, with the highest fold expression increase in both LSIL and HSIL compared to the other miRNAs.
Although patients found to have atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance (ASC-US) and low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSILs) on Papanicolaou (Pap) testing are treated conservatively, 5.2% to 18.8% of them progress to high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs).

Although preliminary, our observations lend support to the suggestion that the experimental model of transcriptional regulation and exclusion of either HPV E6/E7 or MCP-1 expression is especially pertinent to high-grade SIL, whereas in most SCCs, other environmental factors may influence this relationship.
An increased MYC and/or TERC gene copy number (>2 signals in>10% of cells) prevailed in 43% of ASCUS specimens and was more frequent in HSIL (85%) than in LSIL (33%) (HSIL vs LSIL: P<.0001).

Analysis of peripheral blood lymphocytes obtained from 14 HLA-DQB1*02 patients with HPV-16+ HSILs showed that the HPV-16+ E7 peptide (aa 71-85)-specific CD4+ T-cell immune response was significantly higher in the group of patients with regression compared with the patients without regression (P value <0.05).
Both AHPV and Cobas were equally sensitive in detecting high-grade SIL in both scenarios of screening and ASC-US or AGC triage but AHPV showed a higher specificity.
