Epidemiological studies of in situ breast cancer are sparse, and the role of reproductive history, an established risk modifier for invasive breast cancer, remains incompletely investigated. To examine possible associations with parity and age at first birth, we undertook a case-control study nested
To provide quantitative information on the role of age at any birth for breast cancer risk, we analyzed data from a cooperative Italian case-control study conducted between 1991 and I994 on 2,569 incident, histologically confirmed breast cancer cases and 2,588 controls in hospital for acute, non-neo
In 1988, a case-control study on breast cancer and oral contraceptives with 624 cases and 624 matched controls in the age range 25-54 years was undertaken in Slovenia. This analysis assesses the relationship between parity and breast cancer risk: the relative importance of age at first birth, age at
