INTRODUCTION
There has recently been a decline in mammography rates noted in the general population. We sought to determine whether similar trends hold in high-risk populations.
METHODS
Mammography rates from the National Health Interview Survey for 2000 and 2005 were analyzed for differences among risk-stratified populations of women over the age of 40.
RESULTS
Although high-risk women (those with a personal of family history of breast cancer) were more likely to report having had a mammogram than lower risk women, they, too, showed a small decline in mammography rates. This, however, did not reach statistical significance. The decline in mammography rates in lower risk women, however, was significant and correlated with that of the general population.
CONCLUSIONS
The decline in breast cancer-screening rates noted over the past 5 years has been predominantly in lower-risk women.
引言
最近发现普通人群的乳房X光检查率有所下降。我们试图确定高危人群中是否也存在类似趋势。
方法
分析了2000年和2005年美国国家健康访谈调查中40岁以上风险分层女性人群的乳房X光检查率差异。
结果
尽管高危女性（有乳腺癌个人或家族病史的女性）比低危女性更有可能报告进行过乳房X光检查，但她们的乳房X光检查率也略有下降。然而，这并未达到统计学意义。不过，低危女性的乳房X光检查率下降显著，且与普通人群的下降情况相关。
结论
过去5年中观察到的乳腺癌筛查率下降主要发生在低危女性中。
