Data from almost 1.4 million women who were followed up from 2003 January to 2010 December in the Kaiser Permanente Northern California Medical Care Plan（KPNC） provided impotrant evidence on risk after abnormal tests. In this paper，we presented the evidence-based interpretation of the concensus guidelines in order to provide better advision for the management of abnomal cervical cancer screening tests.
