TL;DR: 7 years after the start of the study the excess of stage I cancers in the study group largely outweighs the deficit of advanced cancers, and the results to the end of 1984 show a 31% reduction in mortality from breast cancer and a 25% reduced in the rate of stage II or more advanced breast cancers.

TL;DR: There was a consistent risk reduction associated with screening in all studies, although the point estimate of the relative risk for all ages varied non-significantly between 0.68 and 0.84.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mammography Service Screening and Mortality in Breast Cancer Patients: 20-year Follow-Up Before and After Introduction of Screening

TL;DR: Taking account of potential biases, changes in clinical practice and changes in the incidence of breast cancer, mammography screening is contributing to substantial reductions in breast cancer mortality in these two Swedish counties.
Journal Article
Update of the Swedish two-county program of mammographic screening for breast cancer
TL;DR: Analysis of survival showed that relative to the control group, the cancers detected at prevalence screen, incidence screens, and in the interval between screens had a good prognosis, whereas cancers detected in those who had refused screening had a very poor prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Invitation to mammographic screening results in a highly significant decrease in breast cancer-specific mortality, and Evaluation of the full impact of screening, in particular estimates of absolute benefit and number needed to screen, requires follow-up times exceeding 20 years.
