Description
Qian Lu and five co-authors published a population health study in twenty twenty-four on a Chinese program that screens people for five cancers at once. Hebei Province ran the government program in five cities between twenty sixteen and twenty twenty-three. Residents aged forty to seventy-four first answered a risk questionnaire.
Nearly two hundred thirty-eight thousand people enrolled, and about half were judged high risk for at least one cancer. Over one hundred thousand screenings were performed. People at risk for several cancers joined screening more often and produced more positive findings than single-risk participants. Weighted comparisons of incidence and death followed. The authors argue combined screening uses each visit better than one-cancer programs.
