Abstract: The objective of this study is to perform a review analysis with visualization on research articles related to Pap test and alternative methods of screening for cervical cancer. Articles from PubMed databases up to October 2020 were searched and filtered using Adjutant application. The resulted document corpus included 527 researches, published between 1953 and 2020. This automated search tool also performs topic cluster identification, resulting ten cluster topics in this study research context. The cluster’s topics highlight the main perspectives and trends in research regarding cervical cancer programs. The presentation of these clusters provide an assemble, comprehensive and broad overview of existing research on: access / participation / compliance / knowledge / implementation / limitations / guidelines of/to/for cervical cancer screening programs (especially Pap test), HPV molecular screening tests, HPV vaccination programs, screening strategies cost-effectiveness.
