I know this question has been discussed but i think this question deserves a debate.....whts ur answer?guess or analyse.... A study is done and 50 yr old healthy men were picked randomly and assigned to either get a DRE screening test or New blood test. After 5 yrs 40 out of the 50 from the blood test were living after 2 yrs after being diagnosed in comparison with 15 out of 50 screened with DRE survived 2 yrs after being diagnosed with prostate Ca. Research concluded that Blood test increased survival compared to Rectal exam. Which of the following potential flows is most likely to invalidate this conclusion? a. Age of patient b. Diagnostic Bias c. Lead time bias d. recall bias e. type 2 error
