Mashup Score: 3Effect of mammographic screening from age 40 years on breast cancer mortality (UK Age trial): final results of a randomised, controlled trial - 4 year(s) ago
Yearly mammography before age 50 years, commencing at age 40 or 41 years, was associated with a relative reduction in breast cancer mortality, which was attenuated after 10 years, although the absolute reduction remained constant. Reducing the lower age limit for screening from 50 to 40 years could potentially reduce breast cancer mortality.

Mashup Score: 0Better understanding of coronary pathophysiology needed to improve CV outcomes in women - 4 year(s) ago
Obstructive CAD is not always the best predictor of CV events, especially in women, so a better characterization of coronary pathophysiology is necessary, according to a speaker.Cardiologists need to “recognize limitations of conventional diagnostic and management approaches for stable ischemic heart disease, particularly in women,” Viviany R.
