The genetic interplay between body mass index, breast size and breast cancer risk: a Mendelian randomization analysis
BACKGROUND: Evidence linking breast size to breast cancer risk has been inconsistent, and its interpretation is often hampered by confounding factors such as body mass index (BMI). Here, we used linkage disequilibrium score regression and two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) to examine the geneti...
