Menarche, menopause, and breast cancer risk: Individual participant meta-analysis, including 118 964 women with breast cancer from 117 epidemiological studies

Nobuyuki Hamajima, +292 more
- 01 Nov 2012 - 
TL;DR: The effects of menarche and menopause on breast cancer risk might not be acting merely by lengthening women's total number of reproductive years, and endogenous ovarian hormones are more relevant for oestrogen receptor-positive disease than for ostrogens receptor-negative disease and for lobular than for ductal tumours.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations of general and abdominal obesity with multiple health outcomes in older women: the Iowa Women's Health Study.

TL;DR: The waist-hip ratio was the best anthropometric predictor of total mortality and was associated less consistently than BMI or waist circumference with cancer incidence, and all anthropometric indexes were associated with incidence of diabetes and hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Type I and II Endometrial Cancers: Have They Different Risk Factors?

Veronica Wendy Setiawan, +66 more
TL;DR: The results of this pooled analysis suggest that the two endometrial cancer types share many common etiologic factors, and the etiology of type II tumors may, therefore, not be completely estrogen independent, as previously believed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical activity and mortality in postmenopausal women.

TL;DR: These results demonstrate a graded, inverse association between physical activity and all-cause mortality in postmenopausal women and strengthen the confidence that population recommendations to engage in regular physical activity are applicable to post menopausal women.
Journal ArticleDOI
