Abstract excerpt

Mammographic density and serum sex hormone levels are important risk factors for breast cancer, but their associations with one another are unclear. We studied these phenotypes, together with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in genes related to sex hormone metabolism, in a cross-sectional study of 1,413 postmenopausal women from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition-Norfolk. All...
