- Abstract
The authors discuss a study that examined the temporal relationship of at-risk patients, the timing of cancer development, and the types of cancers. Highlights include the case of a 72-year-old White male with dermatomyositis (DM) and cancer, optimal cancer screening strategies in myositis, and cancer screening strategies in DM being prone to important bias such as lead time or inherent methodical limitations.
