Community-basedScreeningPrograms

Aitkenetalinitiatedalargerandomizedtrialtodeterminetheeffectivenessofcommunity-basedscreeninginreducingmortalityfrommelanomainAustralia（7）.In2002,resultsfromthefirstphaseofthetrialdemonstratedthefeasibilityofimplementingtheprogram,whichconsistedofcommunityeducation,generalpractitionereducation,andscreeningclinicstopromoteself-screeningandwhole-bodyscreeningbygeneralpractitioners.Earlyresultsdetectedanincreaseinthepercentageofsubjectsreportingwhole-bodyskinexaminationbyaphysician12monthsafterrandomizationcomparedtocontrolcommunities（27%versus[vs]12%;11%inbothgroupsreportedreceivinganexamintheyearbeforethestudy）.Theimpactofscreeningonmortalitywillrequirefollow-upofthosecommunitiesover15years,althoughthelackofadequatefundinghasjeopardizedthecompletionofthetrialasplanned.

Attheendofthethree-yearinterventionperiod（1998-2001）,atelephonesurveyofasampleofpeopleinthestudycommunitiesindicatedthatpeoplecouldaccuratelyrecallwhethertheyhadhadaclinicalwhole-bodyskinexaminthepreviousthreeyears.Concordanceofself-andmedicalrecordreportswas94%,withsensitivity92%andspecificity96%（22）.

Berwicketalusedacase-controlstudyofmelanomatoinvestigatewhetherSSEwasbeneficial（9）.ThestudyassessedthepotentialofSSEforprimarypreventionofmelanoma（i.e.,reductionofmelanomarisk）andsecondaryprevention（earlydetection）separately,aswellasthejointimpactonmelanomamortalityreduction.Interviewswereconductedwith650individualswithmelanomasdiagnosedin1987-1989,identifiedfromtheConnecticutTumorRegistry,and549populationcontrols,selectedfromtheConnecticutpopulationbyrandom-digitdialling.AllsubjectswereCaucasian.Participantswereaskedabouttheirhistoryofdoing―careful,deliberateandpurposefulskinselfexamination‖priortodiagnosis/interview;17%ofcontrols（n=96）and13%（n=86）ofcasesrepliedaffirmatively.Melanomacaseswerefollowedthrough1994fordevelopmentof―lethalmelanoma‖;30developeddistantmetastasesbutwerestillalive,and80diedfrommelanoma.

ThecomparisonoftheuseofSSEincasesandcontrolsindicatedareducedriskofmelanomaassociatedwithSSEforprimaryprevention,withanoddsratio（OR）of0.66（95%confidenceinterval[CI],0.44to0.99）afteranadjustmentforage,sex,andanumberofphenotypicriskfactorsandestimatedsunexposure.Intermsofsecondaryprevention,SSEwasassociatedwithareducedriskofdeveloping―lethalmelanoma‖（OR,0.56）.ThecombinedprimaryandsecondarypreventioneffectsofSSErepresentanestimateofthepotentialforSSEtoreducemelanomamortality,theusualdesirableendpointforevaluatingscreeningeffectiveness.TheadjustedORrepresentingthisreductionis0.37（95%CI,0.16to0.84）,whichisalsotheproductofprimaryandsecondarypreventionORs（i.e.,0.66x0.56=0.37）.
