Women with dense breasts have an increased risk of breast cancer. However, breast density is measured with variability, which may reduce the reliability and accuracy of its association with breast cancer risk. This is particularly relevant when visually assessing breast density due to variation in in...
Zisun Kim6, Woo-Chul Noh7, Yongsik Jung8, Jung-Hyun Yang9, Sung Hoo Jung10 and Sung-Won Kim11 on behalf of Korean Hereditary Breast Cancer Study Group The widely used Western BRCA mutation prediction models underestimated the risk of having a BRCA mutation in Korean breast cancer patients....
(GAIL) using age-at-menarche, age-at-birth of first live child, number of previous benign breast biopsy examinations, and number of first-degree-relatives with breast cancer as well as baseline age-specific breast cancer risks for predicting the 5-year risk of invasive breast cancer for ...
Breast cancer is a multifactorial disease. A spectrum of internal and external factors contributes to the disease promotion such as a genetic predispositio
This NWAS involved investigation of intakes of 92 foods and nutrients (for which data were available) in relation to breast cancer risk in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study, and calculation of the associated False Discovery Rate (FDR) to select dietary ...
risk calculation for development of secondary breast cancers4. Breast cancer exhibits field cancerization, meaning that normal-appearing breast cells ipsilateral to a known cancer are at higher risk than normal for development into a secondary breast cancer5. Risk factors predisposing an individual to ...
So far, methylation markers have been identified in blood-based DNA and shown to vary according to age, body mass index, alcohol and tobacco consumption and so on. By going beyond genetics and incorporating epigenetics into the calculation ofbreast cancer risk, I believe that we can improve our...
Although many low-penetrant genetic risk factors for breast cancer have been discovered, knowledge about the effect of multiple risk alleles is limited, especially in women <50 years. We therefore investigated the association between multiple risk alleles and breast cancer risk as well as individual ...
