Consequences of a false-positive mammography result: drug consumption before and after screening.

Conclusion(s) Drugs used to mitigate mood disorders were used more frequently by women with false-positive than by women with normal mammograms already before the screening event, while the changes from before to after screening were similar for both groups. The results point to the importance of control for potential selection in studies of screening effects. PMID: 26799406 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
