Table 4. Atherosclerotic prevalence in leukemia/lymphoma, lung, colorectal, breast, uterus/cervix, prostate cancer patients and control group: fractures; patients ≥ 50 years old.
Subgroup | Prevalence (%) Within Total Athero | Prevalence (%) of Athero Within Total Subgroup | |
---|---|---|---|
Both | Leukemia/Lymphoma | 4.44 | 12.57 |
Lung | 5.35 | 17.63 | |
Colorectal* | 5.54 | 18.17 | |
Female | Breast | 5.57 | 9.79 |
Uterus/Cervix | 1.41 | 11.47 | |
Male | Prostate | 5.86 | 18.40 |
Out group | Fractures | 9.54 | 27.40 |
Prevalence (%) within total athero = (# of patients with specific cancer and athero) / (total # of patients with athero) * 100. Prevalence (%) of athero within total subgroup = (# of patient with specific cancer and athero) / (total # of patients with specific cancer) * 100.
* The colorectal data from BIDMC produced a fatal error in the union set search and was, therefore, excluded.
