Anyone who refuses to be scanned "will receive an equivalent screening": a full pat-down.
[People who don't want to be full-body scanned] will receive equivalent screening that may include a physical pat-down, hand-wanding, and other technologies.
Therefore, even equivalent screening means that minority patients are not being screened in accordance with the ADA guidelines, despite insurance and access being equal.
The higher mortality rate for Black women is particularly striking now, given virtually equivalent screening rates and lower incidence than White women [ 4, 5].
The efficiency of generating lethal mutations by piggyBac-based insertional mutagenesis in Tribolium (7.4%) is similar to equivalent screens in Drosophila based either on piggyBac [ 9, 18] or P elements [ 19- 21].
The rationale for limiting the number of genome equivalents screened at a single time is that the number of false positives increases exponentially with the number of genome equivalents screened.
Starting at age 50 the detection rate and the false-positive rate are both about 2 percentage points less and the costs are less, but not reduced sufficiently to make such screening materially cheaper than an equivalent age screening policy.
If a 1× genome equivalent is screened, then there is an average of one plate row and plate column intersection and hence no false positive plate.
If a 2× genome equivalent is screened, then there are on average four plate row and plate column intersections with four putative positive plates, of which two are false positive.
Despite this, the 30-day mortality rate and overall survival rate (on Kaplan Meier analysis) were equivalent between screen-detected and interval Dukes' A CRCs (log-rank Mantel Cox χ=2.901, df=1, P=0.089; Figure 1).
