Breast cancer risk factors and their effects on survival: a Mendelian randomisation study

17 Nov 2020

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Observational studies have investigated the association of risk factors with breast cancer prognosis. However, the results have been conflicting and it has been challenging to establish causality due to potential residual confounding. Using a Mendelian randomisation (MR) approach, we aimed to examine the potential causal association between breast cancer-specific survival and nine established risk...
