Linda MartinGUEST
So we finished up the lung cancer topic and screening and so forth, and now we're going to move on to part two.

Linda MartinGUEST
So there's still some lung cancer in here, but there's going to be a bit of esophagus and other topics as well.

Linda MartinGUEST
So one of the things I've now got a routine down where I contact the editors of the Annals of Thoracic Surgery and JTCVS, and I ask them to give me metrics on what was downloaded the most, what's been cited the most.

Linda MartinGUEST
So, Jeff, there's two really great papers that came out from the same group of authors with a slightly different focus, and it's looking at differences in epidemiology between non-smoking individuals and people with a history of smoking.

Linda MartinGUEST
People who, especially who've never been tobacco users, will ask all kinds of questions about why do they have this, but that's part two.

Linda MartinGUEST
But part one is more just having a good sense of the frequency of genomic alterations and just the overall epidemiology differences between the two.

Linda MartinGUEST
So in the JAMA review paper, they talk about the non-smoking individual's and people with a history of smoking.

Linda MartinGUEST
And overall now it's about 15 or 20% of people with a new diagnosis of lung cancer would be lifelong non-smoking individuals.

And then just to answer your question about what happens when you expand criteria, preliminarily, what we're finding is that screening efficiency doesn't seem to lower at all or that much, depending on the cohort that you're studying, if you expand the criteria thoughtfully.
