Combination therapy of hormone and cytotoxic agents in advanced breast cancer.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Current cervical cancer screening approaches are based on cytology supplemented by human papillomavirus (HPV) testing in some settings. Whereas cytology is laborious and depends on the cytologists' experience, HPV testing has limited specificity when it is used to detect high-grade lesions. A dichotomous tes...
