16. An epidemiologic study of breast cancer among elderly women followed 1,000 women, 65-79 years of age, without evidence of breast cancer over several years. Every two years the investigators examined the women for breast cancer. The results were as follows: 12 new cases at the first evaluation, 11 new cases at the second evaluation, 23 new cases at the third evaluation, and 28 new cases at the fourth (and final) evaluation. The investigators also noted that 40 women had withdrawn from the study at the third evaluation. Based on this information, calculate the person-time incidence rate (in person-years) of breast cancer in this group. Show all of your work.

Below is a piece of an article which discusses one of thee many disputes which can come about when patients seek organ donation. it deals with a little girl named Sarah who desperately needed a double lung transplant but due to certain policies almost lost the opportunity to obtain it.

"Sarah’s family and the family of another cystic fibrosis patient at the same hospital challenged transplant policy that made children under 12 wait for pediatric lungs to become available or be offered lungs donated by adults only after adolescents and adults on the waiting list had been considered. They said pediatric lungs are rarely donated. The family challenged this policy and had Sarah placed on the adult donor list. Sarah’s aunt, Sharon Ruddock, said the donor lungs came in through normal channels as a result of being on the adult donor list. It was a direct result of the ruling that allowed her to be put on the adult list,” Ruddock said. “It was not pediatric lungs, she would have never gotten these lungs otherwise.” Before the ruling, Ruddock said, Sarah was “very close to the end. Maybe a week. Maybe two.”
