Global advances and future trends in cervical cancer research from 2013 to 2022
2024-10-10
(Press-News.org)
With ongoing advancements in cervical cancer research, the global scientific community has gained a more comprehensive understanding of this significant threat to women's health. A research team led by Professor Weimin Kong has recently published a paper titled "Hotspots and frontiers in cervical cancer research: a bibliometric and visualization analysis from 2013 to 2022" in the internationally renowned journal Malignancy Spectrum. The study systematically analyzed the development trends and research hotspots in global cervical cancer research over the past decade using bibliometric methods.
The research utilized the Web of Science database to select relevant literature on cervical cancer published between 2013 and 2022. In-depth data analysis and visualization were conducted using CiteSpace and VOSviewer software. The results show that the research output in the field of cervical cancer in China has experienced rapid growth, emerging as a significant force in global cervical cancer research. However, there is still room for improvement in certain areas compared to developed countries.
The paper highlights that research hotspots in cervical cancer focus on pathogenesis, epidemiological characteristics, HPV vaccination, and screening strategies. The study also emphasizes the importance of strengthening international cooperation and raising public health awareness, offering targeted suggestions.
The author, Professor Haomeng Zhang, said, "Our research not only provides new research directions for scientists but also valuable decision-making references for policymakers. We look forward to these findings promoting the development of cervical cancer prevention and treatment efforts and improving the health standards of women worldwide."
In conclusion, bibliometric and visualization analyses provide unique and objective insights into the field of cervical cancer, assisting scholars in identifying new research directions. Significant progress has been made in China over recent years, yet further enhancements in international collaboration and interdisciplinary research are necessary to advance this area of study.

Every kid who has read a comic book or watched a Spider-Man movie has tried to imagine what it would be like to shoot a web from their wrist, fly over streets, and pin down villains. Researchers at Tufts University took those imaginary scenes seriously and created the first web-slinging technology in which a fluid material can shoot from a needle, immediately solidify as a string, and adhere to and lift objects.
These sticky fibers, created at the Tufts University Silklab, come from silk moth cocoons, which are boiled in solution and broken down into their building block proteins called fibroin. ...

University of Pittsburgh scientists independently validated a new blood test platform that can simultaneously measure more than a hundred biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease. The platform might improve clinicians’ ability to capture the multifaceted nature of Alzheimer’s pathology and streamline early disease diagnostics. The report was published in Molecular Neurodegeneration today.
“Alzheimer’s disease should not be looked at through one single lens,” said senior author Thomas Karikari, Ph.D., M.Sc., assistant professor of psychiatry at Pitt. “Capturing aspects of Alzheimer’s pathology in a panel of clinically validated biomarkers would increase ...

In a collaborative effort between Texas A&M University and Sandia National Laboratories, researchers have significantly improved a new joining technology, interlocking metasurfaces (ILMs), designed to increase the strength and stability of a structure in comparison to traditional techniques like bolts and adhesives, using shape memory alloys (SMAs). ILMs offer the potential to transform mechanical joint design in manufacturing for aerospace, robotics and biomedical devices.
“ILMs are poised to redefine joining technologies ...

Medical professionals have a responsibility to lead the fight against climate misinformation to ensure that the public is well informed about the health risks posed by climate change, say experts in The BMJ today.
Misinformation (inaccurate information spread without malicious intent) and disinformation (deliberately deceptive information) in health is not new, write Professor Andy Haines and colleagues.
Just as the rapid spread of false information during the covid-19 pandemic undermined public trust in science and public health interventions, false information also pervades the climate change debate, influencing public perception and ...

Former GP Sarah Benn was suspended by the medical practitioners tribunal service (MPTS) after an arrest for her involvement in climate protests. In The BMJ today, two experts debate the question of when and whether doctors in such cases should be sanctioned.
The recent case of Sarah Benn has sparked debate, partly because of a perception that the GMC referred her to a MPTS tribunal for taking part in peaceful protests, says Andrew Hoyle, assistant director at the GMC.
In reality, he explains ...

Extreme rainfall events are associated with an increased risk of death from all causes as well as from heart and lung diseases, finds an analysis of data from 34 countries and regions published by The BMJ today.
The health effects of extreme rainfall varied by local climate and vegetation coverage, providing a global perspective on the effect of extreme rainfall events on health.
Climate change is intensifying the frequency and severity of short term rainfall events, and emerging evidence suggests a compelling link between rainfall events and adverse health outcomes, particularly transmission ...

Peer-reviewed – Scoping Review - People
New research from the University of East Anglia has uncovered a significant gap in understanding of a harmful form of domestic abuse known as subtle or covert abuse.
Unlike more obvious forms of physical or verbal abuse, subtle abuse is less visible but can be just as damaging to victims.
The review found that current research on this topic is limited, despite its potentially widespread impact.
The findings suggest that subtle abuse ...

The key to more accurate rainfall predictions may lie in the intricate dance of falling snowflakes, a new study has found.
The research, observing the physical motion of falling ice crystals, will help scientists better estimate where and when these crystals will melt into raindrops, a crucial stage in the formation of many types of rain.
Published today (Thursday 10 October) in the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, the study involved scientists watching how fake snowflakes fell in a substance ...
