OBJECTIVE: To assess the prevalence of Trichomonas vaginalis in two island populations of Vanuatu using the Pap smear as the screening technique. STUDY DESIGN: Women were randomly selected from specific sites on the islands of Efate (urban setting) and Ambae (rural setting). Pap smears were collected, screened and reported. SETTING: The first collection site was the Women's Health/Antenatal Care Clinic at Vila Central Hospital in Port Vila, the capital city located on the island of Efate, and the second collection site was a rural village on a sparsely populated inhabited northern island, Ambae. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 905 Ni-Vanuatu women participants: Efate (n = 562) 62%, and Ambae (n = 343) 38%. The mean age was 35.8 years: Efate 32.6 years, and Ambae 40.8 years. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The presence or absence of T. vaginalis in these Pap smears was documented during the study's cervical screening process. RESULTS: The overall prevalence of T. vaginalis within the study participants was 25.3%. Almost half of the infected sample group were in the age group of 30-39 years (43.8%). The prevalence of T. vaginalis in Efate was 14.7%, compared with 43.4% in Ambae. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of T. vaginalis in Vanuatu women is significantly higher compared with developed countries. Women in rural settings are less likely to have access to sexually transmitted disease prevention and treatment programs, thus contributing to high infection rates compared with women in urban settings. Cultural and educational differences in the rural setting might also contribute to higher sexually transmitted disease rates among these women. 相似文献

Risk for invasive cervical cancer is reported to be higher in rural areas than urban ones, and cervical cancer-related mortality is higher in rural women due to poorer utilization of preventive services and subsequent presentation at late stages of the disease. This cross-sectional study examined the relationship between prevalence of risk factors for cervical cancer and the degree of compliance with risk-appropriate screening guidelines for cervical cancer. Secondary data were analyzed for 614 women from Robeson County, NC, aged 40 and older, and of mainly rural and low socioeconomic status. High-risk status was determined by the presence of any of the following five risk factors: a history of more than two sexual partners, age at first sexual intercourse under 18 years, history of sexually transmitted disease, history of sexually transmitted disease in sexual partner(s), and smoking. Low-risk status was the absence of all factors. A high-risk participant was considered compliant if she had had at least three Pap smears in the 3 years prior to the interview, while a low-risk participant was considered compliant if she had had at least one Pap smear within the previous 3 years. Overall, 82% of the participants were at high risk for cervical cancer. However, only 41% of all participants were compliant with the risk-appropriate screening guidelines. Low-risk status was significantly associated with compliance with cervical cancer screening guidelines (adjusted OR = 6.7; 95% CI = 3.7 to 11.1, p = .0001). Findings in this study population suggest rural women at high risk for cervical cancer are less likely to be compliant with appropriate Pap smear screening guidelines, indicating the need to target educational programs. 相似文献

Planning for human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination in sub-Saharan Africa: A modeling-based approach
Background
Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines have the potential to reduce cervical cancer incidence and mortality, particularly in the parts of the developing world that bear the greatest burden of disease. This research sought to predict the impact and cost-effectiveness of an HPV vaccination program in an example low-resource country with a high burden of cervical cancer: Mali, West Africa.Methods
Novel compartmental mathematical models projected the impact of adolescent HPV vaccination in urban and rural areas of Mali. The models accounted for two high-risk vaccine-types: HPV 16 and 18. We then attached comprehensive real cost and cost-effectiveness estimates.Results
Our models predict that HPV vaccination in Mali will reduce cervical cancer burden by a factor roughly equal to vaccine coverage. A point vaccination program was simulated in a cohort of 333,146 urban and 588,982 rural Malian women, age 10–14. Vaccination of 50% of girls reduced the peak prevalence of HPV 16/18 to 5.0% in the urban setting and 9.6% in the rural setting, down from 11.7% and 22.0%, respectively, with no vaccination. The 50% vaccination scenario averted 1145 cervical cancer deaths in the urban group and 2742 in the rural group. The cost per discounted life-year saved in this scenario was 1030 US dollars (urban) and 725 dollars (rural). The cost per life-year saved was higher at 90% coverage, but was still in the range of a “cost-effective” public health intervention.Conclusions
This research yielded the most comprehensive real cost estimates of HPV vaccination yet published for sub-Saharan Africa. Our models indicate that HPV vaccination in Mali will be cost-effective when introduced. To maximize the benefit using limited resources, vaccination programs may begin with a target coverage of about 50%. We anticipate that costs of reaching late adopters after the First Vaccinated Wave of vaccination will be higher, but worthwhile. 相似文献5.

This study investigated the prevalence and risk factors for genital infection with HPV in women from rural and urban areas in two different regions of the Eastern Brazilian Amazon. A cross-sectional survey was performed in Pap screening programs, with a total sample of 444 women (233 urban and 211 rural). Uterine cervical swabs were collected for the detection of HPV DNA with the established PCR assay using MY09-MY11. All volunteers answered an epidemiological questionnaire. Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors associated with HPV infection. Overall prevalence of HPV infection was 14.6% (15% in urban women and 14.2% in rural). The only factor associated with HPV was marital status in the 13-25-year-old rural population, with higher HPV prevalence among single and divorced women and widows. The findings indicate the need for risk factor control strategies targeted specifically to women in rural and urban areas. 相似文献

Cervical cancer continues to be a major public health problem in India in the absence of wide spread organised cervical screening programs. Visual inspection of the cervix with acetic acid (VIA) is an effective, inexpensive screening test that can be combined with simple treatment procedures for early cervical lesions, provided by trained health workers. We report 7 years experience in early detection of cervical cancer and pre-cancers using the VIA test in a community-based program in rural Andhra Pradesh, India where there are no existing organised cervical screening programs.
Materials and Methods:
Eligible women aged between 26 and 60 were opportunistically screened by trained health wor kers using the VIA test. Women who tested positive were further evaluated and those with cervical lesions were treated either by cryotherapy in the screening clinic or referred to a higher center.Results:
A total of 18,869 women were screened by a single round of VIA testing with a positive rate of 10.75%. Biopsy proven high-grade squamous intraepithelials (HSILs) were 90 (0.48%) and low-grade squamous intraepithelials (LSILs) were 43 (0.28%). The overall prevalence of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 2+ lesion rate is 1.05%. A total of 312 (1.65%) cryotherapies were done and 49 women underwent hysterectomy.Conclusions:
VIA by trained female health workers is a safe, acceptable, and effective test that can save lives from cervical cancer even in remote areas with few resources. These results have important implications for efficient service delivery in cervical screening programs in low-resourced settings. 相似文献9.

Postpartum Depression Among Rural Women From Developed and Developing Countries: A Systematic Review
Laura Villegas BSc Katherine McKay BSW Cindy‐Lee Dennis PhD Lori E. Ross PhD 《The Journal of rural health》2011,27(3):278-288
Purpose: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a significant public health problem, with significant consequences for the mother, infant, and family. Available research has not adequately examined the potential impact of sociodemographic characteristics, such as place of residence, on risk for PPD. Therefore, this systematic review and meta‐analysis examines the prevalence of and risk factors for PPD in rural communities within developed and developing countries, and where possible, compares rates to those among urban women. Methods: Five databases were searched, from start dates through early May 2010, using key words relevant to PPD and rural residence. Peer‐reviewed articles were eligible if a standardized assessment of depression was administered to rural mothers within the first year postpartum. Data on PPD were extracted from 19 articles, of which 17 provided data for meta‐analyses. Findings: The overall prevalence of PPD among rural women was 27.0% (95% CI, 18.8%‐37.2%). Prevalence was somewhat higher among women in developing countries (31.3%; 95% CI, 21.3%‐43.5%) than among women in developed countries (21.5%; 95% CI, 10.9%‐38.0%), although there was significant heterogeneity among both groups of studies. Comparisons between rural and urban women yielded conflicting results. Although established PPD risk factors were associated with depression in rural women, additional risk factors were reported for rural women from developing countries, such as having 2 or more young children. Conclusions: Longitudinal studies with clearly defined “rural” and “comparison” groups are needed to determine whether rural residence is associated with increased risk for PPD. The results can inform prevention and treatment programs tailored to serve rural women. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The total cancer prevalence falls within the range of 2%-3% of the population. Some data suggests differences in terms of whether the environment is urban or rural, other geographical factors and in the area surrounding nuclear power plants. This study is aimed at ascertaining said prevalences and the distribution thereof in the different geographical areas of the Guadalajara Healthcare District. METHODS: Point prevalence study in 1999 based on a systematic review of cases at primary and secondary sources in the Guadalajara Health District, including invasive malignant tumors among individuals over age 14. The overall and specific distribution in terms of the place of residence, region and proximity to nuclear power plants is analyzed, raw and adjusted prevalences/100,000 inhabitants and CI 95% prevalence index. RESULTS: A total of 2,717 cases were detected (raw prevalence: 2034.6/10(5)), there being a 50%-50% ratio between the urban and rural environments. The adjusted prevalence (worldwide population) is 1295.2/10(5), being greater in the urban environment (1479.9/10(5)) than in the rural environment (1136.3/10(5)). With regard to the geographic regions, solely thyroid cancer is more prevalent among women in the most depressed, mountainous areas, although involving a low-level casuistic. CONCLUSIONS: The cancer prevalences found are similar to those published and, following an age-based adjustment, are greater in the urban than in the rural environment. The differences among regions are related to the demographic and geographical characteristics and to the environment being urban. 相似文献

The objective was to describe the prevalence and factors associated with uterine cervical cancer (CA) and high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL) in adolescents. A cross-sectional study was carried out with 702 sexually active adolescents treated at a general hospital in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 1993 to 2002. Screening was performed by cytopathology and colposcopy and confirmation by biopsy. Exposure variables were socio-demographic characteristics and those related to reproductive health, habits, and sexual behavior. Adjusted odds ratios were estimated using multivariate logistic regression analysis. Based on histopathology, the prevalence of HSIL/CA was 3% (95%CI: 1.8-4.6). There was one case of invasive cancer. With each additional pregnancy, the odds of HSIL/CA increased by 2.2 (95%CI: 1.1-4.4). Age was also associated with this outcome, doubling the odds of acquiring this degree of disease with each year of age (OR = 2.0; 95%CI: 1.2-3.4). The prevalence of lesions suggests the importance of including sexually active adolescent females in cervical cancer screening programs aimed at early detection and treatment of these lesions. 相似文献

Comparative analysis of invasive cervical cancer incidence rates in three Appalachian states 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
BACKGROUND: Invasive cervical cancer (ICC) rates remain elevated in the Appalachian region of the United States. We investigated patterns of invasive cervical cancer incidence rates in three Appalachian states (Kentucky, West Virginia, Pennsylvania) to uncover specific high-risk subgroups within this large and heterogeneous region. METHODS: The analysis was conducted for the three states combined and individually. Invasive cervical cancer rates were characterized by individual and county-level sociodemographic variables, including age, race, poverty, education, Appalachian status, and rural/urban status. Bivariate analyses and multivariable Poisson regression models were conducted to address the relative contributions of each variable to the risk of invasive cervical cancer. RESULTS: The three states differed in the contribution of each factor to the risk of invasive cervical cancer. The overall invasive cervical cancer incidence rates for Kentucky, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania were 13.4, 13.9, and 10.2 per 100,000/yr, respectively. After controlling for other demographic variables, the effect of Appalachian status on invasive cervical cancer was weaker, while rural status, education, and race were stronger, significant predictors. CONCLUSIONS: This study illustrates the heterogeneity of population demographics and invasive cervical cancer risk, and the need to identify subregions and subgroups within Appalachia at highest risk for this disease. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Despite increasingly widespread use of the Papanicolaou smear, almost half of all women with invasive cervical cancer are diagnosed at a late stage (regional or distant). Little is known about factors associated with late-stage diagnosis of cervical cancer. OBJECTIVE: To examine the relationship of age, race, education level, income level, smoking, marital status, health insurance type, comorbidity, and residence in an urban or rural setting to late stage at diagnosis of cervical cancer. METHODS: Incident cases of invasive cervical cancer occurring in 1994 in Florida were identified from the state tumor registry (N = 852). Cases were linked with state discharge abstracts and the 1990 US census. Multiple logistic regression was used to determine the relationship between predictor variables (age, race or ethnicity, marital status, smoking status, education level, income level, insurance type, comorbidity, and urban vs rural residence) and the odds of late-stage diagnosis. RESULTS: Age, marital status, and insurance type were associated with late-stage diagnosis. Each additional year of age was associated with a 3% increased odds of late-stage diagnosis (odds ratio [OR], 1.03; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-1.05; P<.001). Being unmarried was associated with a 63% increased odds of late-stage diagnosis (OR, 1.63; 95% CI, 1.18-2.25; P=.003). Being uninsured was associated with a 60% increased odds of late-stage diagnosis (OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.07-2.38; P=.02). Having commercial health maintenance organization insurance was associated with a 46% decreased odds of late-stage disease (OR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.30-0.96; P=.04). Race, education level, income level, smoking status, comorbidity, and urban residence were not associated with stage at diagnosis. CONCLUSIONS: Women with cervical cancer who are elderly, unmarried, and uninsured are more likely to be diagnosed at a late stage. These women should be targeted for cervical cancer education and screening programs. 相似文献
