Question:
Davy et al. (A-19) reported the results of a study involving survival from cervical cancer. The researchers found that among subjects younger than age 50, 16 of 371 subjects had not survived for 1 year after diagnosis. In subjects age 50 or older, 219 of 376 had not survived for 1 year after diagnosis. Compute the relative risk of death among subjects age 50 or older. Does it appear from these data that older subjects diagnosed as having cervical cancer are prone to higher mortality rates?
