The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
