Article Abstract:
A series of cases of 6 patients with cervical lymphoma is presented. Results show that primary lymphoma of the uterine cervix is a rare malignancy and women with localized disease typically respond to various combinations of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy while combination chemotherapy with tailored radiotherapy appears to be preferred treatment option in women with advanced disease.

The interleukin-6 -174 single nucleotide polymorphism: Cervical protein production and the risk of preterm delivery
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to determine the association between preterm delivery (PTD), cervical fluid interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentration, and the single nucleotide polymorphism at position -174 in the IL-6 gene. It was concluded that the presence of maternal IL-6 -174C was not associated with cervical fluid concentration of IL-6 or risk of PTD.
