Declarations of interest
None. We had no a priori opinion on the effect of screening for breast cancer when we were asked by the Danish Institute for Health Technology Assessment, the National Board of Health, in 1999 to review the randomised trials.

Differences between protocol and review
A new outcome was added when we discovered that breast cancer mortality is an unreliable outcome. This was mortality from any cancer.
Notes
A new trial, the UK age trial, has been added since the 2006 update.
