Aim: Organised cervical screening programmes often allow for opportunistic screening. Previous studies have shown that adherence to follow-up protocols after cervical screening is poor. This study aims to investigate if non-adherence to recommended screening intervals - that is, opportunistic screening, is associated with adherence to follow-up after non-negative cervical screening.

Yet a substantial proportion still participate in the Danish faecal immunochemical test (FIT) screening and have a higher positive FIT rate than the average-risk population. We estimated the risk of false-positive screening among individuals with inflammatory bowel disease and high-risk individuals to improve recommendations regarding screening participation.

We investigated the effectiveness of an intervention by leveraging the high participation rate in breast cancer (BC) screening as an opportunity to offer self-sampling kits to nonparticipants in CC and CRC screening.
Methods And Findings: A pragmatic, unblinded, cluster-randomised, multiple period, crossover trial was conducted in 5 BC screening units in the Central Denmark Region (CDR) between September 1, 2021 and May 25, 2022.
