Cervical cancer is a disease that mostly affects women. The incidence of cervical cancer is quite high. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out cervical cancer prevention, especially primaryprevention. However, cervical cancer prevention behavior is still relatively low. One of the factors that influence is the perception of cervical cancer prevention. This study aimed to identify perceptions of primary cervical cancer prevention in female high school students. This study used descriptive quantitative methods. The sampling technique used stratified random sampling. The study was conducted on female students of SMAN Tanjungsari with a sample of 216 people. Data collection was obtained using a questionnaire with a Likert scale, consisting of perceptions of susceptibility, severity, benefits, and barriers. The instrument was affirmed valid with a range of 0.367 - 0.717 and the reliability value of the questionnaire was 0.811. The analysis was statistic descriptive. The results showed that most female students of SMAN Tanjungsari had negative perceptions of cervical cancer susceptibility (94.9%), positive perceptions of cervical cancer severity (94%), positive perceptions of primary cervical cancer prevention benefits (98.6%), and positive perceptions of primary cervical cancer prevention barriers (96.8%). This study concludes that most of the female students of SMA Tanjungsari have a positive perception of primary cervical cancer prevention. Based on these results, health services and educational institutions should be able to develop cervical cancer prevention programs which are accessible to all students so that it will be a supporting factor for high school female students in their efforts to prevent cervical cancer

Background and context: Approximate 4000 new cases of cervical cancer, including carcinoma in situ, are found in Taiwan each year. More than 20% of that are in precancerous status, the age ranges from 20 to 34, equivalent to 1 out of 5 cases is young women. To deliver the message to young women to advocate cervical cancer prevention through vaccination + Papanicolaou test screening, new promotional approaches have been executed with innovative technology. Aim: 1. To elevate the understanding of the risk of HPV infection to young women between age 20 to 34 with new technology approaches. 2. Raise the awareness of cervical cancer prevention among young women. 3. Drive young women to take active role on cervical cancer prevention, particularly on HPV vaccination. 4. Encourage young women to visit gynecology clinic (OB/GYN) willingly to have regular Papanicolaou test screening. Strategy/Tactics: 1. Use humorous video + social media to attract the attention of young women, by male celebrities to remind female about HPV vaccination, and encourage them to prevent the disease with peers. 2. Invite key opinion leader (KOL) and social media influencers to resolve the passiveness, by celebrities + KOL to call on people to take action. 3. Use innovative technology/social media channels to spread and extend the meaning of this campaign. 4. Use location based service (LBS) provided by mobile service companies + GPS service to encourage young women to visit nearby OB/GYN. Program/Policy process: 1. Video of HPV and cervical cancer reminder from male KOL celebrity; in addition, HPV awareness ambassadors encourage young women to participate “vaccination + Pap smear screening”. 2. Resolve passive action by celebrities + KOL calling people to take part on the cervical cancer prevention, by sharing cervical cancer prevention messages on Facebook to influence fans to carry out the event spontaneously. 3. To encourage young women to visit nearby OB/GYN by LBS mobile text message service, and search for the nearby OB/GYN with GPS system on the map of the campaign Web site. Outcomes: The significant views from social media events: promotional video, Facebook activity, and mental quiz game have totally reached 4,889,276 views, from August 11 to November 1, 2017, the completion of promotion. Moreover, the page view of the campaign Web site had reached nearly 125,000 views and accessed 45,000 new target audience. LBS messages were read by 52,464 women, 8114 of them visited OB/GYN, which means 15.5% of young women were successfully encouraged to visit OB/GYN. What was learned: By using new technology and social media approaches to promote cervical cancer prevention to young women, we found that KOLs played significant role on influencing our target audience. By utilizing a variety of channels to communicate with the young women in new technology approaches will be the mainstream of promotion.

Long Term Survivors

ObjectiveWith the introduction of multimodality therapy for cervical cancer, many women will be long-term survivors in need of comprehensive surveillance care. Our goals were to evaluate patterns of obesity and smoking in a cohort of cervical cancer survivors and to assess the potential influence of these comorbidities on subsequent follow-up.MethodsWe reviewed the records of patients treated for invasive cervical cancer at our institution from 2000 to 2003 who had no evidence of disease for 3 or more years. Demographic and clinical data were collected, including smoking history and anthropometric measurements. Body mass index (BMI) was categorized according to World Health Organization criteria. Logistic regression and Wilcoxon rank sum analyses were performed.ResultsTwo hundred ninety-eight women had complete follow-up data at 3 years. The median age at diagnosis was 43.5 years (range, 17.6–87.1 years). At diagnosis, 31.9% had a normal BMI, 28.2% were overweight, and 34.6% were obese compared with 31.7%, 21.1%, and 30.2% at 3 years, respectively. Of the 51 women whose BMI categorization changed, 33 (64.7%) had weight gain, and 18 (35.3%) had weight loss. By paired analyses, increase in BMI was significant over the 3-year interval (P < 0.001). Seventy patients actively smoked at diagnosis. Compared with nonsmokers, current smokers had a greater odds of referral to the pain service (odds ratio [OR], 6.56; confidence interval [CI], 6.26–16.43; P < 0.001), physical therapy (OR, 4.74; CI, 1.29–17.36; P = 0.02), and gastroenterology (OR, 2.25; CI, 1.14–4.24; P = 0.02).ConclusionsObesity and smoking are significant comorbidities that may complicate care in cervical cancer survivors. Interventions aimed at modifying these risk factors should be routinely undertaken in this population.

The initiation and progression of cancer usually takes years. Attempts are being made to reverse the molecular and cellular changes at an early state of cancer initiation or progression. The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that at least one-third of all cancers are preventable and cancer prevention is the most cost-effective long-term strategy for the control of cancer....
