Temporal changes in mammographic breast density and breast cancer risk among women with benign breast disease
IntroductionBenign breast disease (BBD) and high mammographic breast density (MBD) are prevalent and independent risk factors for invasive breast...

Associations of stem cell markers CD44, CD24 and ALDH1A1 with mammographic breast density in women with benign breast biopsies
BackgroundWe examined associations of CD44, CD24 and ALDH1A1 breast stem cell markers with mammographic breast density (MBD), a well-established...

Microcalcifications, mammographic breast density, and risk of breast cancer: a cohort study
BackgroundBreast density and microcalcifications are strongly associated with the risk of breast cancer. However, few studies have evaluated the...

Effect of testosterone therapy on breast tissue composition and mammographic breast density in trans masculine individuals
BackgroundThe effect of gender-affirming testosterone therapy (TT) on breast cancer risk is unclear. This study investigated the association between...

Association of area- and volumetric-mammographic density and breast cancer risk in women of Asian descent: a case control study
BackgroundMammographic density (MD) has been shown to be a strong and independent risk factor for breast cancer in women of European and Asian...

Development and evaluation of a method to assess breast cancer risk using a longitudinal history of mammographic density: a cohort study
BackgroundWomen with dense breasts have an increased risk of breast cancer. However, breast density is measured with variability, which may reduce...

Lipidome of mammographic breast density in premenopausal women
BackgroundHigh mammographic breast density (MBD) is a strong risk factor for breast cancer development, but the biological mechanisms underlying MBD...

Repeated measures of mammographic density and texture to evaluate prediction and risk of breast cancer: a systematic review of the methods used in the literature
PurposeIt may be important for women to have mammograms at different points in time to track changes in breast density, as fluctuations in breast...

Breast cancer risk factors and mammographic density among 12518 average-risk women in rural China
BackgroundMammographic density (MD) is a strong risk factor for breast cancer. We aimed to evaluate the association between MD and breast cancer...

The association of age at menarche and adult height with mammographic density in the International Consortium of Mammographic Density
BackgroundEarly age at menarche and tall stature are associated with increased breast cancer risk. We examined whether these associations were also...

Mammographic breast density and survival in women with invasive breast cancer
PurposeWe explored the under-debate association between mammographic breast density (MBD) and survival.
MethodsFrom the Piedmont Cancer Registry, we...

Causal relationships between breast cancer risk factors based on mammographic features
BackgroundMammogram risk scores based on texture and density defined by different brightness thresholds are associated with breast cancer risk...

Studies of parenchymal texture added to mammographic breast density and risk of breast cancer: a systematic review of the methods used in the literature
This systematic review aimed to assess the methods used to classify mammographic breast parenchymal features in relation to the prediction of future...

Examination of fully automated mammographic density measures using LIBRA and breast cancer risk in a cohort of 21,000 non-Hispanic white women
BackgroundBreast density is strongly associated with breast cancer risk. Fully automated quantitative density assessment methods have recently been...

The impact of breast density notification on rescreening rates within a population-based mammographic screening program
BackgroundHigh participation in mammographic screening is essential for its effectiveness to detect breast cancers early and thereby, improve breast...

Studying the association between longitudinal mammographic density measurements and breast cancer risk: a joint modelling approach
BackgroundResearchers have suggested that longitudinal trajectories of mammographic breast density (MD) can be used to understand changes in breast...

Mammary collagen architecture and its association with mammographic density and lesion severity among women undergoing image-guided breast biopsy
BackgroundElevated mammographic breast density is a strong breast cancer risk factor with poorly understood etiology. Increased deposition of...

Benign breast disease and changes in mammographic breast density
BackgroundMammographic breast density (MBD) and benign breast disease (BBD) are two of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer. Understanding...

Current regular aspirin use and mammographic breast density: a cross-sectional analysis considering concurrent statin and metformin use
PurposeThe nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug aspirin is an agent of interest for breast cancer prevention. However, it is unclear if aspirin...
