    • 13-Type HPV DNA Test versus 5-Type HPV mRNA Test in Triage of Women Aged 25–33 Years with Minor Cytological Abnormalities–6 Years of Follow-Up 

      Rad, Amir; Sørbye, Sveinung; Brenn, Tormod; Tiwari, Sweta; Løchen, Maja-Lisa; Skjeldestad, Finn Egil (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-25)
      Background: A specific, cost-effective triage test for minor cytological abnormalities is essential for cervical cancer screening among younger women to reduce overmanagement and unnecessary healthcare utilization. We compared the triage performance of one 13-type human papillomavirus (HPV) DNA test and one 5-type HPV mRNA test. Methods: We included 4115 women aged 25–33 years with a screening ...

    • HPV types in cervical cancer tissue in South Africa: A head-to-head comparison by mRNA and DNA tests 

      Rad, Amir; Sørbye, Sveinung Wergeland; Dreyer, Greta; Hovland, Siri; Falang, Bente Marie; Louw, Melanie; Skjeldestad, Finn Egil (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-01)
      <p>Accurate identification of human papillomavirus (HPV)-types in cervical cancer tissue may be important for tailoring tests for primary screening and types to be included in a vaccine. The aim of this study was to compare test-performance of a 45-type HPV deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-test with a 9-type HPV messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA)-test in cervical cancer tissues. <p>In a case-series design ...
