Researchers witnessed lower levels of creatine phosphokinase (CPK), an indicator of muscle injury, in the blood. Red and white blood cell count, serum electrolytes, creatinine, C-reactive protein, creatine phosphokinase and troponin-T were normal, lactate-dehydrogenase was 335 U/L (normal: <248) and INR was 2.
The benefits of breast screening. The main benefit of breast screening for women who undergo regular mammography is that breast cancer can usually be detected early. Early detection is important because there is strong evidence to show that earlier breast cancer detection leads to improved rates of survival 1.acmillan Cancer state that 70% of women whose breast cancer is detected early through screening can have breast conserving surgery, compared to only 55% whose cancer is detected outside a screening programme. The evidence for the benefits of breast screening is clear.
The value of screening mammograms was questioned in November 2009 when the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force recommended that routine screening mammograms for women with an average risk of breast cancer should start at age 50 instead of age 40.or example, mammograms have been shown to lower the risk of dying from breast cancer by 35% in women over the age of 50. In women between ages 40 and 50, the risk reduction appears to be somewhat less.
