Prospective study of estrogen replacement therapy and risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women.
Graham A. Colditz,Meir J. Stampfer,Walter C. Willett,Charles H. Hennekens,Bernard Rosner,Frank E. Speizer +5 more

Paul M. Ridker,JoAnn E. Manson,Julie E. Buring,Jessie W. Shih,Matthew S. Matias,Charles H. Hennekens +5 more
