Abstract

Lung cancer is the most preventable and leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, with about 155 870 deaths each year. 1 In December 2013, the United States Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) recommended annual screening for lung cancer with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) for asymptomatic persons aged 55 to 80 years who have a 30 pack or more per year smoking history and currently smoke or have quit within the past 15 years. 2 According to the 2010 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS), only 2% to 4% of high-risk smokers received LDCT for lung cancer screening in the prev i o u s ye a r. 3 I n t h i s s t u d y, we ex a m i n e d w h e t h e r LDCT screening has increased following the USPSTF recommendation.Methods | We used the 2010 and 2015 NHIS, which included 2347 respondents who met the USPSTF criteria for LDCT.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
