For example, given a patient's risk of death from cancer based on their oncologic burden and their risk of death from other causes based on their comorbidities, we calculate an adjusted risk of death from cancer. To illustrate the importance of this correction, image two patients with identical disease burden, and therefore, identical predicted risk of death from disease. Now imagine, that one of these patients also has sever heart disease and it likely we pass away from hear disease before they would succumb to the cancer. Our correction makes the appropriate update to the risk of death from disease incorporating the risk of death from other causes. authors: - family-names: Sjoberg given-names: Daniel D. email: danield.sjoberg@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0862-2018 repository: https://ddsjoberg.r-universe.dev commit: e9cd979e630255d9c5a2d9dda6d68adb3d320ef0 url: http://www.danieldsjoberg.com/crc/ contact: - family-names: Sjoberg given-names: Daniel D. email: danield.sjoberg@gmail.com orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-0862-2018
