本研究调查了尼日利亚伊巴丹两个城市贫困社区环境中宫颈癌的知识和筛查做法。采用横断面设计。使用ODK工具在500名受访者的样本中收集定量数据。数据分析使用IBM SPSS version 21进行描述性和推断性统计。知识得分为0-39分（0-18分低，19-23分一般，24-39分高）。大多数受访者（77.2%）对子宫颈癌的认识较低，不知道巴氏涂片检查（93.6%）或子宫颈癌筛查（91.2%）。很少有妇女（10%）知道用于预防宫颈癌的人乳头瘤病毒疫苗，4%的妇女接受过帕帕尼科拉乌试验筛查，一名妇女（0.3%）接受过醋酸目视检查。4名（1.1%）妇女曾接种过人乳头瘤病毒疫苗。这项研究的结果强调，有必要通过促进健康的干预措施和战略来提高认识，以缓解尼日利亚贫困社区环境中对宫颈癌的低知识、预防和筛查做法。
This study investigated knowledge and screening practices for cervical cancer among two urban poor community settings in Ibadan, Nigeria. A cross-sectional design was used. ODK tool was used to collect quantitative data among a sample size of 500 respondents. Data were analyzed using IBM SPSS version 21 for descriptive and inferential statistics. Scores for knowledge were on a scale of 0-39 points (0-18 low, 19-23 fair, and 24-39 high knowledge). A majority of respondents (77.2%) had low knowledge of cervical cancer and were not aware (93.6%) of the Papanicolaou test (Pap smear test) or cervical cancer screening (91.2%). Very few women (10%) were aware of the human papillomavirus vaccine for the prevention of cervical cancer, 4% had been screened with the Papanicolaou test, and one woman (0.3%) with visual inspection with acetic acid. Four (1.1%) women had taken human papillomavirus vaccine before. The findings of this study have underscored a necessity for increased awareness creation through health promotion interventions and strategies to alleviate low knowledge, prevention, and screening practices for cervical cancer in poor community settings in Nigeria.
