Frailty modelling of colorectal cancer incidence in Norway: indications that individual heterogeneity in risk is related to birth cohort.

European journal of epidemiology - 1 Jan 2006

Svensson Elisabeth, Moger Tron A, Tretli Steinar, Aalen Odd O, Grotmol Tom

Abstract excerpt

Some cancer types level off or decrease in incidence at older age groups, not following the Weibull hazard rate. This stagnation can be explained by the frailty model, which describes the population effect of mixing individuals who are susceptible, with high risk of cancer, with those that are "non-susceptible", with a low risk of cancer even in the oldest age groups. The aim of the study was to apply a frailty...
