Outdated information

[edit]

The information on CA-125 as a screening tool is outdated. The article linked to was published in 1998. Currently it is commonly used in screening. CrocodilesAreForWimps (talk) 23:34, 19 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

According to all of the scholarly articles I can find, CA-125 levels are currently used to monitor the progression of ovarian cancer following treatment, but not for widespread screening of individuals without symptoms of disease. If you have a contrary referance please share. I will add some of the more recent publications I have found on the topic. --Kathryn Beabout (talk) 01:00, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Superfluous citation warning

[edit]

Since 2019 the article has been tagged with the warning "more medical citations needed etc". The tag has been included by AnomieBOT. <
In my opinion, the 26 available citations are correct and apt, using high quality sources. Of course, no citation list will ever be complete, but this number seems rather sufficient.
Maybe someone disagrees, but I propose to remove this bot-generated tag, as it seems rather redundant.
