FDA saka, ka, lai gan dzemdes kakla vēzis Amerikas Savienotajās Valstīs katru gadu nogalina aptuveni 4,000 sieviešu, lielākā daļa dzemdes kakla vēža gadījumu ir novēršami. Turklāt, ja diagnoze ir savlaicīga, dzemdes kakla vēzi var izārstēt, un FDA ir apstiprinājusi trīs vakcīnas (2, 4 un 9), lai novērstu dzemdes kakla vēzi.
Cervical cancer is usually formed in the lower part of the cervix or uterus adjacent to the vagina. It is caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), but not all people who carry the HPV virus will get dzemdes kakla vēzis. Cervical cancer has few symptoms, but it can be detected by conventional Pap smear, which is a cervical smear. This test requires taking some cells from the cervix, and then the laboratory checks whether these cells have abnormal cancerous changes. sign. Ja Pap uztriepes testa rezultāti ir patoloģiski, jāveic turpmāki izmeklējumi, ieskaitot HPV izmeklējumus. Ja šos divus testus var veikt vienlaikus, viltus negatīvais rādītājs ievērojami samazināsies.
According to the FDA, there are more than 100 types of HPV, some of which are non-pathogenic. The HPV test detects those types of HPV that are more likely to cause cancer. Some women also need cervical biopsies if necessary. The HPV vaccine does not treat cervical cancer, but it can play a good role in preventing cervical cancer caused by high-risk types of HPV. Among them, cervical cancers caused by HPV types 16 and 18 account for 70% of the total. Gardsey 9 is the highest-priced preventive vaccine that can prevent cervical cancer caused by 9 types of HPV and provide comprehensive protection. People are best vaccinated before getting HPV to get full protection.
Šīs vakcīnas ir tikai profilaktiskas, un tās darbojas pēc tāda paša principa kā citas vakcīnas, kas novērš vīrusu un baktēriju slimības: tās mudina organismu ražot antivielas pret vīrusiem. Tomēr atgādiniet draudzenēm, ka neatkarīgi no tā, vai viņas ir vakcinētas, viņām regulāri jāveic PAP uztriepes, jo ir ārkārtīgi svarīgi atklāt dzemdes kakla vēzi un pirmsvēža bojājumus.
