Table 3. Cause-specific hazard ratio of cervical cancer from age 61 to age 80 comparing women screened and unscreened at age 61–65, by screening history at age 51–60, based on Cox regression model.
Screening history at age 51–60 | Unadjusted model | Adjusted for birth cohort and education | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
HR (95% CI)a | P value | P value for PH testb | HR (95% CI)a | P value | P value for PH testb | |
Adequately screened, normal | 0.92 (0.71–1.20) | 0.53 | 0.27 | 0.90 (0.69–1.17) | 0.42 | 0.34 |
Inadequately screened, normal | 0.87 (0.60–1.28) | 0.49 | 0.48 | 0.82 (0.56–1.22) | 0.33 | 0.33 |
