TL;DR: To identify further susceptibility alleles, a two-stage genome-wide association study in 4,398 breast cancer cases and 4,316 controls was conducted, followed by a third stage in which 30 single nucleotide polymorphisms were tested for confirmation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Validity and repeatability of a simple index derived from the short physical activity questionnaire used in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study

TL;DR: The summary index of physical activity derived from the questions used in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study suggest it is useful for ranking participants in terms of their physical activity in large epidemiological studies.
Journal Article
Update of the Swedish two-county program of mammographic screening for breast cancer
TL;DR: Analysis of survival showed that relative to the control group, the cancers detected at prevalence screen, incidence screens, and in the interval between screens had a good prognosis, whereas cancers detected in those who had refused screening had a very poor prognosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Family history and the risk of breast cancer: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
TL;DR: The aim of this study was to identify all the published studies which have quantified the risk of breast cancer associated with a family history of the disease, and to summarise the evidence, with particular emphasis on age‐specific risks according to subject and relative age.
