A prospective study of Norwegian women who were followed between 1986 and 2009 was conducted. Within that period (1995-2005), a national mammography program was gradually implement ed, with biennial invitations send to women age 50-69. The participants of the study were all women aged 50-79 between 1986-2009. The mortality rate ratios compared women who were invited to screen to those who were not invited, with a clear distinction between cases of breast cancer diagnosed before and after the invitation to...

We know that the proportion of women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer in the general population is 0.013 or 1.3%. We think that a meaningful difference in proportion of women who have ever been diagnosed with breast cancer is |p0-p1| = 0.02 or 2% difference. for all cal. let alpha = 0.05 A. What sample size is needed to have 90% poor to detect this difference assuming that we use a two sided test. B. If we have...

Breast cancer occurs most frequently among older women. Of all age groups, women in their 60s have the highest rate of breast cancer. It is estimated that 3.7% of women in their 60s get breast cancer. Mammograms are X-ray images of the breast used to detect breast cancer. A mammogram can typically identify correctly 84.9% of cancer cases (sensitivity = 84.9%) and 95.13% of cases without cancer (specificity = 95%). (This is exactly like problem #11) First write down the...

QUESTION 1 Women with mutations in their BRCA1 or BRCA2 genes are more likely to suffer from breast or ovarian cancer at some point in their life than those who are wild-type. However, doctors cannot predict which patients will develop cancer and which patients won't. Which term best describes the relationship between BRCA1 (or BRCA2) and cancer? Incomplete Penetrance Variable Expressivity O Both O Neither

About 20 women in 80,000 have breast cancer. Suppose the mammogram detecting breast cancer when a woman has breast cancer is 0.90 and the mammogram detecting breast cancer on a woman who does not have breast cancer is 0.01. If a woman has breast cancer, what is the probability that the mammogram will not detect breast cancer? If the mammogram shows breast cancer, what is the probability that she truly has breast cancer? If the mammogram shows a woman has...

B) Epidemiologists claim that the probability of
breast cancer among
Caucasian women in their mid-50s is 0.005. An established test
identified
people who had breast cancer and those that were healthy. A
new
mammography test in clinical trials has a probability of 0.85 for
detecting
cancer correctly. In women without breast cancer, it has a chance
of 0.925
for a negative result. If a 55-year-old Caucasian woman tests
positive for
breast cancer, what is the probability that she, in fact,...

A researcher examined health records on a sample population including 8000 women. At the end of 2010, 990 women had been diagnosed with breast cancer. During 2011, there were 10 new breast cancer cases in this population. What is the cumulative incidence for breast cancer among this population in 2011 (HINT: the number of persons at risk should be those who are breast cancer free at the beginning of 2011)? (Round to four decimal places and answer in 0.0000 format)
