Reproductive history differs by molecular subtypes of breast cancer among women aged ≤50 years in Scotland in 2009-16: A population-based retrospective cohort study
Abstract:Background
The aetiology of breast cancers diagnosed ≤ 50 years of age remains unclear. We aimed to compare reproductive risk factors between molecular subtypes of breast cancer thereby suggesting possible aetiologic clues, using routinely collected cancer registry and maternity data in Scotland.
Methods
We conducted a population-based retrospective cohort study of 4,108 women aged ≤ 50 years with primary breast cancer diagnosed between 2009–2016 linked to maternity data. Molecular subtypes of breast cancer … Show more
