Cancer epidemiology, biomarkers & prevention : a publication of the American Association for Cancer Research, cosponsored by the American Society of Preventive Oncology ·doi:10.1158/1055-9965.epi-26-0152

BACKGROUND: Given that primary prevention strategies for ovarian cancer, such as surgery and medications, have inherent risks, identifying those at high risk of lethal ovarian cancer is critical. We examined prediagnosis factors and risk of…

BACKGROUND: We investigated the associations of oral contraceptives (OC) with percent breast density (PD), absolute dense area (DA), nondense area (NDA), and a novel image intensity variation (V) measure in premenopausal women. METHODS: Th…

American journal of obstetrics and gynecology ·doi:10.1016/j.ajog.2021.12.022

BACKGROUND: Oral contraceptive use has been associated with a higher breast cancer risk; however, evidence for the associations between different oral contraceptive formulations and breast cancer risk, especially by disease subtype, is limi…

PURPOSE: We investigated the associations of aspirin and other non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs with mammographic breast density (MBD) and their interactions in relation to breast cancer risk. METHODS: This study included 3,675 cancer-f…

Abstract Background: Cancer antigen 125 (CA125) is a membrane-bound glycosylated mucin that has been reported to be the most promising biomarker for ovarian cancer screening, although results from two large randomized trials comparing scree…

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether weight change since age 18 years, current body mass index (BMI), and BMI at age 18 years are associated with fecundity. METHODS: Our study included 1,950 women in the Nurses' Health Study 3 (2010-2014), a pro…

PLoS medicine ·doi:10.1371/journal.pmed.1001492

BACKGROUND: Breast, endometrial, and ovarian cancers share some hormonal and epidemiologic risk factors. While several models predict absolute risk of breast cancer, there are few models for ovarian cancer in the general population, and non…

PURPOSE: Age at menopause, a major marker in the reproductive life, may bias results for evaluation of breast cancer risk after menopause. METHODS: We followed 38,948 premenopausal women in 1980 and identified 2,586 who reported hysterecto…
