This diminishes the actual comparability of women aged 55 or older with women below that age, and, as a consequence, we cannot draw clear conclusions on the relative screening efficiency for this age group.

The association with older age is not surprising, because in the general population the MetS has been shown to affect primarily older subjects, as a consequence of age-related modification of some of its components [ 41].
