We developed methods to assess the cancer risks by screening tests. These methods estimate the size of the high risk group adjusted for the characteristics of screening tests and estimate the incidence rates of cancer among the high risk group adjusted for the characteristics of the tests. A method was also developed for selecting the cut-off point of a screening test. Finally, the methods were applied to estimate the risk of the adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma.
我们开发了通过筛查测试评估癌症风险的方法。这些方法估计了根据筛查测试特征调整后的高风险群体规模，并估计了根据测试特征调整后的高风险群体中的癌症发病率。还开发了一种选择筛查测试临界点的方法。最后，将这些方法应用于估计成人T细胞白血病/淋巴瘤的风险。
