Body Mass Index (BMI) is not a cancer risk factor for BRCA1/2 carriers: a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of case-control studies

2021-03-19

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Breast cancer susceptibility gene 1 and 2 (BRCA 1/2) pathogenic germline variants (gPV) are involved in an increased cumulative risk for cancers (above all breast and ovarian cancers). Overweight/obesity is a well-known systemic condition conferring higher cancer risk too. Methods We performed a systematic review collecting data on Medline, Scopus, and Cochrane-Library data...
