interesting stuff
>30-day mortality increased with age for both patients with breast cancer and patients with NSCLC treated with curative intent, and decreased with age for patients receiving palliative SACT
palliative = try to keep the patient comfortable with pain relief and other medications
SACT = Systemic Anti-Cancer Therapy (aka chemo) try to actually cure the patient
NSCLC = non-small cell lung cancer
