(2010, background): “Breast density in and of itself has been shown by several studies to be an independent risk factor for the development of breast cancer, with the relative risk for women with the most dense breasts 2 to 6 times that of women with the least dense breasts [76-78].”
- The extracellular matrix modulates the hallmarks of cancer (2014, positive): “Moreover, increased mammographic density, which associates with increased collagen deposition, correlates with an elevated risk of developing breast cancer [14].”
