- Obesity and adverse breast cancer risk and outcome: mechanistic insights and strategies for intervention (2017, background): “Obesity consistently associates with higher postmenopausal breast cancer risk in many studies.(14,16,22,42-45) The Million Women Study followed 1.”

Hunter et al., 1996); to study the pharmacogenetics of tardive dyskinesia (Lerer et al., 2002); and to examine the relation between height, weight and breast cancer risk (van den Brandt et al, 2000).”
- Obesity, body size, and risk of postmenopausal breast cancer: the Women's Health Initiative (United States) (2002, background): “In a pooled analysis of seven prospective studies on the relationship of weight, height, and breast cancer risk, investigators found a suggestion of higher risk among older postmenopausal women compared to younger women [9].”
- Effect of obesity on survival of women with breast cancer: systematic review and meta-analysis (2010, background): “In pre-menopausal women, the evidence is less clearcut: some reviews have reported a weak negative association with general obesity, as measured by BMI [2, 3]; whereas others have reported a positive association with central obesity, as measured by WHR [4, 5].”
