Back to Derived Variables and Risk Factors.
Male respondents age 40+ who never had a PSA test are included in the NO category.
NOTE: For AHEC Regions, results for Area L are least reliable due to small sample size.
^Use caution in interpreting cell sizes less than 50, % = Percentage, C.I.(95%) = Confidence Interval (at 95 percent probability level).
Percentages are weighted to population characteristics and therefore cannot be calculated exactly from the numbers in this table.
