TL;DR: A nationwide population‐based estimate of the frequency of CIN treatment per prevented cervical cancer case in a well‐screened population is provided by comparing the cumulative life‐time risk of Cin treatment from 1996 onward, with the difference in the cumulativelife‐time risks of cervical cancer in the prescreening and the screening periods.

TL;DR: The example of Norway illustrates that although monitoring of screening outcome is highly warranted, this may be seriously jeopardized if use of mammography examinations was widespread prior to implementation of an organized program.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the high risk of dying among Danish women is associated with being born between the two world wars, a pattern not reflected by the commonly used life expectancy calculation.

TL;DR: The study showed that a relatively robust prediction of the risk of a false-positive test over 10 screens can be calculated in a simple way relatively early after the start of a mammography screening programme.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that women have a higher relative risk of smoking-related bladder cancer than men is not supported because exposure-response patterns were remarkably similar between genders.
