Surveillance of high-grade cervical cancer precursors (CIN III/AIS) in four population-based cancer registries, United States, 2009 –2012
Publication date: October 2017 Source:Preventive Medicine, Volume 103 Author(s): Meg Watson, Ashwini Soman, Elaine W. Flagg, Elizabeth Unger, Dennis Deapen, Vivien W. Chen, Lauren C. Peres, Glenn Copeland, Thomas C. Tucker, Erin Garnett, Mona Saraiya Surveillance of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia grade III (CIN III) and adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) is important for determining the burden of a preventable disease, identifying effects of vaccination on future diagnoses, and developing targeted programs. We analyzed population-based rates of high-grade cervical cancer precursor lesions using data from four central cancer...

“My mom said it Wasn't important”: A case for catch-up human papillomavirus vaccination among young adult women in the United States
Publication date: Available online 18 August 2017 Source:Preventive Medicine Author(s): Erika L. Thompson, Alicia L. Best, Cheryl A. Vamos, Ellen M. Daley The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine prevents HPV-related diseases, including anogenital cancers and genital warts. In the United States, while it is recommended to adolescents ages 11 to 12, catch-up vaccination is available for those previously unvaccinated until age 26. Parental decisions or lack of provider recommendation during adolescence are barriers to on-time vaccination. Young adult women, ages 18 to 26, are a key catch-up vaccination population as this is a...

Association of physicians perceived barriers with human papillomavirus vaccination initiation
Publication date: Available online 20 August 2017 Source:Preventive Medicine Author(s): Albert J. Farias, Lara S. Savas, Maria E. Fernandez, Sharon P. Coan, Ross Shegog, C. Mary Healy, Erica Lipizzi, Sally W. Vernon Physician recommendation is a strong predictor of vaccine uptake, however their perceived barriers may prevent vaccination. Therefore, we determined the association between physicians' perceived barriers to HPV vaccination and vaccination initiation. We surveyed pediatricians in a large network of clinics in Houston, Texas to assess their perceived barriers to vaccinating adolescents. We combined survey data w...

Unequal interactions: Examining the role of patient-centered care in the inequitable diffusion of a medical innovation, the human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine
Conclusion The results indicate that patient-centered care, which has been a relatively understudied factor in medical innovations’ unequal diffusion, deserves more attention. Efforts to raise HPV vaccination rates should explore why certain patient groups may be less likely to receive recommendations and should support providers to consistently inform all patient groups about vaccination.

Rural-urban differences in human papillomavirus knowledge and awareness among US adults
This study aimed to assess differences in knowledge and awareness of HPV, the HPV vaccine, and HPV-associated cancers among rural and urban residents. We analyzed data from the Health Information National Trends Survey 2013–2017 on 10,147 respondents ages ≥18 years. Multivariable logistic regression analyses compared urban/rural differences in knowledge and awareness of HPV, associated cancers, and HPV vaccine. Models were adjusted for sex, age, race/ethnicity, education, household income, census region, health insurance, regular provider, internet use, and personal history of cancer. Overall, 67.2% and 65.8% of urba...
