Most notably, our study uniquely reports estimates for overall HPV prevalence in Chinese regions characterised by the high incidence of OSCC.
Huang et al. [12] provided the most detailed information on oncologic outcome, reporting estimated 5-year OS, CSS, and RFS rates of 73.7%, 81.3%, and 72.6%, respectively, in a group of 171 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical cystectomies.
However, few studies have estimated the economic burden of cervical cancer; most reports have estimated only direct treatment costs and performed cost-effectiveness analyses of specified technologies [ 2- 4].
Most studies reported effect estimates as odds ratios.
We performed sensitivity analyses using the most frequently reported risk estimates obtained from our survey of Canadian neurosurgeons and neurointensivists.
