Discuss the main causes of breast cancer, how it could be discovered and diagnosed and
what are the new therapies for this disease
A 46 -year-old woman reports to you that she wants to undergo mastectomy and oophorectomy because she has a positive history of breast cancer and is terrified of developing breast or ovarian cancer. Describe the benefits and risks of these surgeries in women at risk for breast cancer What postoperative care and teaching are indicated if she has both surgeries performed to her?
The following paragraph is taken from the National Cancer Institute’s web site on the PSA test for prostate cancer. The paragraph is the complete discussion of false positive PSA results offered on the web site.
• What are some of the limitations of the PSA test?
• False-positive tests: False-positive test results (also called false positives) occur when the PSA level is elevated but no cancer is actually present. False positives may lead to additional medical procedures that have potential risks and significant financial costs and can create anxiety for the patient and his family. Most men with an elevated PSA test result turn out not to have cancer; only 25 to 35 percent of men who have a biopsy due to an elevated PSA level actually have prostate cancer.
Is the last sentence in the paragraph immediately above about false positives as the paragraph is entitled or is it about the left-hand side of Bayes Theorem? Explain.

Our dataset consisted of a robust collection of records from the NIS database spanning a four-year period, specifically from 2016 to 2019. We applied the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) coding system to identify relevant codes for our targeted variables (Supplementary Table S1). We conducted a rigorous screening process, excluding records with missing values or those that did not align with our inclu- sion criteria. We did not exclude patients with missing values in body mass index (BMI) due to the high percentages of absent values. The missing values, whenever applicable, were reported accordingly.
