Noncancer comparators in cancer survivorship studies

Year: 2022

Type: letter

Abstract: In their article on new directions in cancer and aging, Kobayashi et al discuss the important issue of control selection in cancer survivorship studies. As in all areas of epidemiology and health services research, the scientific question should drive the choice of comparison groups. We believe that it is helpful to consider the comparators needed to address 3 distinct types of survivorship questions.
