Breast Tissue Composition and Immunophenotype and Its Relationship with Mammographic Density in Women at High Risk of Breast Cancer. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
AIM:To investigate the cellular and immunophenotypic basis of mammographic density in women at high risk of breast cancer. METHODS:Mammograms and targeted breast biopsies were accrued from 24 women at high risk of breast cancer.

Mammographic density. Measurement of mammographic density [PDF]

Breast Cancer Research, 2008
Mammographic density has been strongly associated with increased risk of breast cancer. Furthermore, density is inversely correlated with the accuracy of mammography and, therefore, a measurement of density conveys information about the difficulty of detecting cancer in a mammogram.

Sex steroids, growth factors and mammographic density: a cross-sectional study of UK postmenopausal Caucasian and Afro-Caribbean women. [PDF]

, 2009
INTRODUCTION: Sex steroids, insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and prolactin are breast cancer risk factors but whether their effects are mediated through mammographic density, one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer, is unknown.

Influence of lifestyle factors on mammographic density in postmenopausal women. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND:Mammographic density is a strong risk factor for breast cancer. Apart from hormone replacement therapy (HRT), little is known about lifestyle factors that influence breast density.

Association between menopausal hormone therapy, mammographic density and breast cancer risk: results from the E3N cohort study

Breast Cancer Research, 2021
Background Menopausal hormone therapy (MHT) is a risk factor for breast cancer (BC). Evidence suggests that its effect on BC risk could be partly mediated by mammographic density.

Common variants in ZNF365 are associated with both mammographic density and breast cancer risk. [PDF]

, 2011
High-percent mammographic density adjusted for age and body mass index is one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer. We conducted a meta analysis of five genome-wide association studies of percent mammographic density and report an association ...

Ethnic differences in mammographic densities [PDF]

International Journal of Epidemiology, 2001
Breast cancer incidence is considerably lower among Japanese and Chinese women than among Caucasian and Native Hawaiian even in second and third generation migrants. Mammographic densities, which refer to the radiological appearance of the healthy female breast, are related to breast cancer risk.

Mammographic breast density refines Tyrer-Cuzick estimates of breast cancer risk in high-risk women: findings from the placebo arm of the International Breast Cancer Intervention Study I [PDF]

, 2014
Introduction: Mammographic density is well-established as a risk factor for breast cancer, however, adjustment for age and body mass index (BMI) is vital to its clinical interpretation when assessing individual risk.
