Non-invasive Biomarker Discovery for Pre-cervical or/and Cervical Cancer--ACTN4 and Other Biomarkers in Menstrual Blood
The goal of this clinical trial is 1. To test the sensitivity and specificity of using ACTN4 from menstrual blood for the detection of pre-cervical or/and cervical cancer. 2. If ACTN4 is not a promising biomarker, other biomarkers will be explored. 3. To develop an effective and non-invasive detection method for pre-cervical or/and cervical cancer. in Women with menstruation. The main question it aims to answer is: To validate whether menstrual blood could be used as a non-invasive means for the detection of pre-cervical or cervical cancer Participants will 1. Join the briefing session of the study 2. Sign the consent form and health questionnaire 3. Submit the cervical medical report(s) within 3 months or perform sponsored pap smear test 4. Collect the menstrual blood sample If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare The diseased group and the healthy group according to the medical reports they provided to see if ACTN4 from menstrual blood is a promising biomarker for the detection of pre-cervical or cervical cancer
