    AnnotationChromosomal aberration (CA) frequency in peripheral lymphocytes of healthy individuals has been found to be predictive of future cancer risk. Intra- and interindividual variability in CA frequency was determined. From a pooled database comprising 11 national cohorts (1965-2002) the authors included 9,433 blood samples from 3,550 subjects with at least one repeated CA measurement. The generalized concordance correlation coeff. of 0.19 was low, indicating high intraindividual variability compared with interindividual variability, resulting in a high likelihood of missclassification. The authors stated that the relation between CA frequency and future cancer risk has probably been underestimated in previous studies.
