Question
if the frequency of a suspected condition is one in 20 patients, stronger evidence is necessary for making that diagnosis than for a condition where the frequency is one in 20 million.
true
false
When a condition is more common (one in 20 patients), it is more likely to be a real - world occurrence, so less stringent evidence might be initially considered. For a very rare condition (one in 20 million), due to its extreme rarity, stronger evidence is needed to rule out false - positives and confirm the diagnosis.
