We also examined differences in mental health between Roma and non-Roma based on teacher report.
We note that Roma children and their teachers reported higher levels of mental health problems, whereas few differences between Roma and non-Roma were evident based on parent report in Romania.
Based on the position of non-Roma, Ana chisels herself away from being the typical Roma.

"I think reporting should be based on behaviour and not identity," Sister Roma said.
Third, based on the results of comparison of HE4, CA125 and ROMA in the same population, the overall performance (AUC) of the three tests for EOC prediction are similar.
The ROMA technology, invented at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory and by NimbleGen [ 20], is based on representative oligonucleotide probes designed for fragments of the human genome sequence, which are more or less randomly distributed across the genome.
Further, clear identification of Roma children and parents in the community is a challenge; many parents do not report Roma ethnic status due to fear of stigma and discrimination; thus we may be undercounting the number of Roma children in our sample, especially in Romania where children were not segregated based on ethnic group.
Based on these considerations, a more appropriate conclusion would be the following: In this study ROMA had a higher AUC value discriminating between malignant and benign tumours than CA125 alone by 2.1% this difference was, however, not significant.
This should be understood as the appeal of or the desire for more comprehensive treatment based on improved communication and deeper involvement by medical staff understood merely as the main non-Roma authority.
