Gut flora and cervical cancer

doi:10.3760/cma.j.cn371439-20230410-00074

Abstract

Abstract:

The occurrence and progression of cervical cancer are influenced by gut flora. Patients with cervical cancer have different gut flora from healthy women，and the detection and evaluation of gut flora can help in the diagnosis，immunotherapy，assessment of radiotherapy efficacy and prognosis prediction of cervical cancer. Regulation of gut flora is of great clinical value in enhancing response to anti-tumor therapy，improving patients' quality of life and improving prognosis.

Key words: Uterine cervical neoplasms, Gastrointestinal microbiome, Chemoradiotherapy, Immunotherapy
