F9-150

Absolute (excess) risk per 10,000 patient years = [observed events −  expected events/person-years] × 10,000. The absolute risk divided by 100 is the percentage likelihood of an event per year of follow-up for an individual patient.

Data derived from reference 155, except for GI tumor data derived from reference 171.
