Serum, Cell-Free, HPV-Human DNA Junction Detection and HPV Typing for Predicting and Monitoring Cervical Cancer Recurrence.

Almost all cervical cancers are caused by human papillomaviruses (HPVs). In most cases, HPV DNA is integrated into the human genome. We found that tumor-specific, HPV-human DNA junctions are detectable in serum cell-free DNA of a fraction of cervical cancer patients at the time of initial treatment and/or at six months following treatment. Retrospective analysis revealed these junctions were more frequently detectable in women in whom the cancer later recurred. We also found that cervical cancers caused by HPV types outside of phylogenetic clade α9 had a higher recurrence frequency than those caused by α9 types in both our study and The Cancer Genome Atlas cervical cancer database, despite the higher prevalence of α9 types including HPV16 in cervical cancer. Thus, HPV-human DNA junction detection in serum cell-free DNA and HPV type determination in tumor tissue may help predict recurrence risk. Screening serum cell-free DNA for junctions may also offer an unambiguous, non-invasive means to monitor absence of recurrence following treatment.

Sleep attacks--apparent relationship to atlantoaxial dislocation.

Sleep attacks, while being characteristic of narcolepsy, have been reported in several metabolic and central nervous system disorders--most of which are refractory to treatment. We have recently treated a 47-year-old man with disabling sleep attacks who was found to have atlantoaxial dislocation. Despite narrowing of the sagittal cervical canal diameter to 12 mm (behind the dens), symptoms of spinal cord compression were mild and intermittent, while signs were absent. Posterior fusion of the C-1 and C-2 vertebrae resulted in relief of symptoms. We suggest that this sleep disorder was a function of impaired efferent control of respiration.
