Table 3.

Cumulative FP probabilities by screening round stratified by participation in additional screening rounds and results of a hypothesis test for association between number of screens and history of screening exam results. Unadjusted probabilities (Unadj) and hypothesis test results are presented in addition to results adjusted for baseline age, average interval between screening exams, year of first exam, and registry (Adj). N = number of women.
