Low Cervical Cancer Screening in Spain Highlights HPV Risk
A low participation rate in Spain's cervical cancer screening program, using HPV testing since 2019, raises concerns about increased cancer cases, given the high global prevalence of HPV and its link to various cancers. A new study reveals 7.4% oral HPV prevalence in Europe and the US, with higher r...

Inflammation: A Double-Edged Sword in Health and Disease
Inflammation, the body's response to injury or illness, is crucial for survival but chronic inflammation, linked to obesity, smoking, and diet, increases the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes; blood tests exist but aren't perfectly reliable for screening.
