HPV vaccines protect boys and girls ✅ HPV vaccination is not just for girls. It also helps prevent cancers in men 🌍 Global evidence shows it saves lives and reduces HPV-related diseases 💉 The best time to vaccinate is early adolescence, before exposure to the virus

Cochrane reviews show strong evidence that HPV vaccines are highly effective at preventing cervical cancer—reducing risk by 80% when given before age 16. They’re also very safe, with only minor, short-term side effects. Learn more: cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.10…

Cervical cancer is the 4th most common cancer in women worldwide. Conisation treats high-grade cervical cell changes (CIN) but still carries risks of recurrence and progression. Evidence shows HPV vaccination around conisation may lower the risk of recurrent CIN2+.

🌍 World Cervical Cancer Elimination Day 💙 Though preventable, cervical cancer still claims 300,000+ lives annually. Take action: ✅ Get informed about HPV and cervical cancer prevention. ✅ Get the HPV vaccine—safe and effective ✅ Get regular screening—it saves lives

An evaluation of newborn #pain #ratingscales using the #COSMIN methodology suggests clinicians should exercise caution when applying the existing scales. More studies that establish content & structural validity are needed bit.ly/4iz59dv @CochraneLibrary @CochraneNursing

There is high-certainty evidence that vaccines reduce the incidence of #herpeszoster in adults with #solidtumors, though localised reactions are more common. There is limited evidence regarding influenza & COVID19 vaccines bit.ly/44KQpoC @CochraneLibrary @CochraneNursing

In adults with #inflammatoryboweldisease, #psychotherapy & #education are likely to improve the #QoL, #depression & #anxiety slightly. #Psychotherapy is probably effective in improving the #QoL in children & adolescents 👉bit.ly/44FA8kR @CochraneLibrary @CochraneNursing

In contrast to intravenous #anticancer therapy in hospital outpatient clinics, it is unclear if receiving treatment at home affects #adverseevents, #hospitaladmissions, #ED visits after therapy, & #IV lines complications 👉bit.ly/4ivt1yG @CochraneLibrary @CochraneNursing
