Objective: To evaluate the association between BC and urinary concentrations of free-bisphenol A (BPA-F), the biological form of BPA, among women residing in Northern Mexico. Methods: The population under study comprised 394 histologically confirmed BC cases and 404 age-matched controls. Women were interviewed face to face about their sociodemographic and reproductive characteristics. BPA-F was determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography equipped with a fluorescence detector (HPLC/FLD). Logistic regression models were used to estimate the adjusted BC risk in relation to BPA-F. Results: BPA-F geometric mean was significantly higher among cases compared to controls (3.16 μg/L in cases and 2.47 μg/L in controls). A significant adjusted BC odds ratio of 2.31 (95% CI: 1.43–3.74) was estimated for the highest category of BPA-F compared to the lowest category. Conclusion: BPA-F may be an environmental cofactor of BC. Since this is the first report on BPA-F association with BC, our results need to be replicated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
