At first glance, it's as though they are saying that the screening itself 
(blood test) can cause problems.
But, isn't it more about how the results of the screening are dealt with 
(unnecesary surgeries, biopsies, etc)?
Of course, I'm easily confused, so maybe I'm misunderstanding what they are 
saying :)
