Circulating lipids, mammographic density, and risk of breast cancer in the Nurses’ Health Study and Nurses’ Health Study II
Abstract
Epidemiologic evidence supports an association between high mammographic density and increased breast cancer risk yet etiologic mechanisms remain largely unknown. Mixed evidence exists as to whether circulating lipid levels influence mammographic density and breast cancer risk. Therefore, we examined these associations in the Nurses’ Health Study (NHS) and Nurses’ Health Study II (NHSII), two large prospective cohorts with information on PMD and...
