Adult weight change and premenopausal breast cancer risk: A prospective pooled analysis of data from 628,463 women.
(WILEY, 2020-09-01)
Early-adulthood body size is strongly inversely associated with risk of premenopausal breast cancer. It is unclear whether subsequent changes in weight affect risk. We pooled individual-level data from 17 prospective studies ...
Comparative Validation of Breast Cancer Risk Prediction Models and Projections for Future Risk Stratification.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2020-03-01)
BACKGROUND: External validation of risk models is critical for risk-stratified breast cancer prevention. We used the Individualized Coherent Absolute Risk Estimation (iCARE) as a flexible tool for risk model development ...
Combined Associations of a Polygenic Risk Score and Classical Risk Factors With Breast Cancer Risk.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS INC, 2021-03-01)
We evaluated the joint associations between a new 313-variant PRS (PRS313) and questionnaire-based breast cancer risk factors for women of European ancestry, using 72 284 cases and 80 354 controls from the Breast Cancer ...
Functional annotation of the 2q35 breast cancer risk locus implicates a structural variant in influencing activity of a long-range enhancer element.
(CELL PRESS, 2021-07-01)
A combination of genetic and functional approaches has identified three independent breast cancer risk loci at 2q35. A recent fine-scale mapping analysis to refine these associations resulted in 1 (signal 1), 5 (signal 2), ...
Fine-mapping of 150 breast cancer risk regions identifies 191 likely target genes.
(NATURE PORTFOLIO, 2020-01-07)
Genome-wide association studies have identified breast cancer risk variants in over 150 genomic regions, but the mechanisms underlying risk remain largely unknown. These regions were explored by combining association ...
