Treating abnormal squamous epithelial cells depends on the specific diagnosis.Low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions(LSILs) found in a Pap smear may normalize on their own. However, a closer follow-up with more frequent testing may be necessary.10 But when abnormal epithelial cells appear to ha...
A crude evaluation of a woman’s oestrogen status, based on a pap smear, using three values—X, Y and Z—to total 100, which corresponds to the percentage of parabasal, intermediate and superficial squames seen in the smear. Cells for the MI are taken from the lateral vaginal wall; 100...
After analysis, it turns out that the HPV viral load is significantly correlated (P = 0.001) with the inflammation of squamous cells in women infected with HPV. Mucosal-tropic HPV infects epithelial cells of the genital and oral mucosa. The presence of oncoproteins (E6, E7) plays a ...
Abstract Objective We undertook a prospective cohort study to ascertain the risk factors for the development of squamous intraepithelial lesions (SIL) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods One hundred thirty‐seven SLE patients with a normal Papanicolaou (Pap) smear at baseline ...
only cervical cancer has a screening test. Cervical Pap test (or Pap smear) is the best screening method for cervical precancerous lesions and is best reported using a unified and a well-established reporting system like The Bethesda System. In this system, “Epithelial ...
The significance of atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance in Barbados - Poster abstract OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the significance of a Papanicolaou (Pap) cervico-vaginal smear diagnosis of atypical squamous cells of undertermined significance (A...

The squamous component emerges in the reserve cells that are highlighted by p63, which is recognized in basal cells of skin appendages, myoepithelial cells in the breast and salivary gland, and sub-columnar cells in the prostate. This gene is critical to the maintenance of stem cell ...
The latter is a precancerous lesion in which the tumour cells proliferate clonally, while the former is a HPV infection that still possesses a normal stratified epithelial structure. Distinguishing between HSIL and LSIL is essential for clinical management. Therefore, a lesion cannot simply be ...
In such background, this study investigates agreement among pathologists regarding visual perception of nuclear chromatin of non- neoplastic cervical squamous epithelial cells. The findings would build a rational basis for future improvement in the diagnostic criteria of cervical Pap smear test. METHODS:...
