摘要翻译:
“每x个人中就有一个人得了癌症”或“每y个人中就有一个人在Z岁时得了癌症”等公共信息的含义可以得到改善。通常援引的一个假设是没有其他死亡原因,这是一个令人困惑的假设。我们开发了一个灯泡模型来澄清累积风险,我们使用马尔可夫链模型,结合广泛存在的假设,来评估转移概率。然后,澳大利亚的数据报告了癌症风险的年龄进展。未来的建模可以引出现实的假设。

英文摘要:
The meaning of public messages such as "One in x people gets cancer" or "One in y people gets cancer by age z" can be improved. One assumption commonly invoked is that there is no other cause of death, a confusing assumption. We develop a light bulb model to clarify cumulative risk and we use Markov chain modeling, incorporating the assumption widely in place, to evaluate transition probabilities. Age-progression in the cancer risk is then reported on Australian data. Future modelling can elicit realistic assumptions.
