Overdiagnosis in Mammographic Screening because of Competing Risk of Death.
BACKGROUND Different definitions and estimates of overdiagnosis in mammographic screening reflect a substantial need to investigate and understand the complexity of the issue. This modeling study aims to estimate the number of overdiagnosed women, defined as those diagnosed with breast cancer who die from any cause within the lead-time period. METHODS We used numbers from incidence and death ...
متن کاملExtrapolation of pre-screening trends: Impact of assumptions on overdiagnosis estimates by mammographic screening.
BACKGROUND Overdiagnosis by mammographic screening is defined as the excess in breast cancer incidence in the presence of screening compared to the incidence in the absence of screening. The latter is often estimated by extrapolating the pre-screening incidence trend. The aim of this theoretical study is to investigate the impact of assumptions in extrapolating the pre-screening incidence trend...

The article clearly demonstrated bias which is inherent when staff of a program reviews the efficacy of their own program, resulting in findings incongruent with those found by those without vested interests. Lee and Peters reported th...
متن کاملOverdiagnosis in mammographic screening for breast cancer in Europe: a literature review.
OBJECTIVES Overdiagnosis, the detection through screening of a breast cancer that would never have been identified in the lifetime of the woman, is an adverse outcome of screening. We aimed to determine an estimate range for overdiagnosis of breast cancer in European mammographic service screening programmes. METHODS We conducted a literature review of observational studies that provided esti...
