英格兰将阴性HPV妇女子宫颈检查的间隔期延长至五年,以减少癌症病例。 England extends HPV-negative women's cervical screening interval to five years to reduce cancer cases.

在英格兰,25至49岁的妇女如果对HPV进行阴性检测,现在将每五年进行一次筛查,而不是按照联合王国国家筛查委员会根据伦敦国王学院研究提出的建议,每三年进行一次筛查。 In England, women aged 25 to 49 who test negative for HPV will now be screened every five years instead of three, as recommended by the UK National Screening Committee based on King's College London research. 这就使英格兰的检查间隔与威尔士和苏格兰的检查间隔相一致。 This aligns England's screening intervals with Wales and Scotland. 改革的目的是减少宫颈癌病例和死亡,同时仍确保经常为那些检测呈阳性的人进行HPV检查。 The change aims to reduce cervical cancer cases and deaths, while still ensuring frequent screenings for those testing positive for HPV.
