For determination of vaginal MV, pap smear from lateral vaginal wall was obtained and evaluated.Results: In women with atrophic symptoms, the age and vaginal pH levels were significantly higher than women without these symptoms. Highly significant correlation between vaginal pH, vaginal MV and serum...
Methods. Digene HC II test was used to identify HR- and/or low-risk (LR-)HPV infections in cervical swabs of 275 women attending our clinic for routine cytological screening and/or colposcopy because of an abnormal Pap smear comprising low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LGSIL) and ...
The aim of this study was to determine the relationships, if any, between preoperative serum cancer antigen 125 (CA-125) levels, the last Papanicolaou (Pap) smear, the results of endometrial biopsy and tumor histology, and disease-stage according to permanent histopathology.
