TL;DR: In this article, a systematic review and meta-analysis was performed to estimate the pooled uptake of cervical cancer screening and identify its predictors in Sub-Saharan Africa, and the results showed that knowledge about cervical cancer increased screening uptake by nearly five times (OR: 4.81; 95% CI: 3.06, 7.54).

TL;DR: In this article, a meta-analytic review aimed to estimate the pooled uptake of cervical cancer screening uptake and identify its predictors in Sub-Saharan Africa was conducted, which showed that knowledge about cervical cancer increased screening uptake by nearly 5-fold (OR: 4.81; 95% CI: 3.06, 7.54).

TL;DR: Cervical cancer screening practice among HIV-positive women in this study was lower than that of the recommended coverage of the target group by the national guideline, which has an important implication for public health intervention aimed at cervical cancer prevention.
