Exclamation fresh status report

Unofficial status of study WEB Pacer cohorts: SCALED
Unofficial status of study WEB Pacer cohorts: SCALED - Google Drive

There are 185 who underwent the intervention (implantation), there are 246 whose status regarding implant is unknown and they are presumed negative for implant. For comparison one could scale the 185 up (133%) or 246 down (75%), so columns for both are included. The pacer wins up to ten years; at this time is tied at ten years, behind by about one or two at the Texas threshold and by about three at the twenty year threshold. There are three bracketed thresholds, which have no historical backgrounds (but at present, with very low N, there is one tie and two losses). At least four patients were ineligible for implant because they were already long term survivors when the intervention became available. Hence it could be said, under scaled analysis the pacer wins all the categories . . . however, several continue to make headway and more improvement appears likely.
