Identifying the Risk Factors Through the Development of a Predictive Model for Gastric Cancer in South Korea
Cancer Nursing, 03/09/09
Lee D et al. - Major risk factors included in the final predictive model were being older, having a family history of gastric cancer, a family history of gastric ulcer, a personal history of gastric ulcer, a poor perceived health status, a low perceived financial status, being exposed to jobs considered to cause stomach cancer, drinking tap water, and eating irregularly and rapidly. The accuracy of the final predictive model was confirmed by its high degrees of sensitivity and specificity. The predictive model developed in this study can be used for classifying high-risk groups and for guiding early-detection screening for gastric cancer.
