ReplyDeleteThese results do not provide evidence sufficient to change existing guidelines. In fact and unfortunately, there has been no change from what has already been known for decades. Dr Jacobs (UK) published in 1999 what really was the first large study using the CA125/ultrasound with virtually the same results(a study of 22,000 women). Please also search this Blog for the concurrent UK study, 200,000 women, with interim results also recently published.
