| Abstract | The aim of the retrospective study was to evaluate prognostic significance of human papillomavirus (HPV) status and expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2/neu), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), CD34 antigen, tumor suppressors p63 and p53, and Ki67/MIB-1 in squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix (SCCC) treated with radiotherapy or chemoradiotherapy. Seventy-two consecutive patients with SCCC, diagnosed and treated with (chemo-) radiotherapy with a curative intent at the University Hospital Hradec Kralove between August 1998 and August 2008, were enrolled in the study. The median follow-up period was 57 months (range 5–152). The tested biological factors were evaluated by polymerase chain reaction (HPV status) and by immunohistochemistry (remaining above mentioned markers) from archival paraffin embedded original diagnostic tumor samples. A statistical significant correlation was observed between low expression of p63 and poor overall survival (p = 0.001), although the complete response probability was influenced with borderline statistical significance (p = 0.05). However, the results could be affected by the statistical error due to the small number of p63 negative patients. HPV positivity and EGFR staining intensity was associated with higher complete response probability (p = 0.038 and p = 0.044, resp.). All other results were not significant. Neither HPV positivity nor EGFR staining intensity were reflected in the overall survival evaluation. In conclusion, the presented study did not confirm any apparently significant association of the suggested markers with prognosis of SCCC in patients treated with (chemo-) radiotherapy. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
