Popis: | Using prospective data from the Early Determinants of Mammographic Density study (United States, 1959–2008, n = 1121), we examined the associations between maternal body size, birth size, and infant and early childhood growth during 3 time periods (0–4 months, 4–12 months, and 1–4 years) and benign breast disease (BBD) using multivariable logistic regression with generalized estimating equations. A total of 197 women (17.6%) reported receiving a diagnosis of BBD by a physician. Higher body mass index at age 7 years was inversely associated with BBD risk. Rapid weight gain from age 1 year to 4 years, defined as an increase of least 2 major percentiles (e.g., 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, and 95th) relative to stable growth, defined as remaining within 2 percentiles, was also inversely associated with BBD (odds ratio (OR) = 0.51, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.23, 1.15). In contrast, rapid weight gain in infancy was positively associated with BBD relative to stable growth (from 0 to 4 months, OR = 1.65, 95% CI: 1.04, 2.62; from 4 to 12 months, 1.85, 95% CI: 0.89, 3.85), independent of birth weight, which was not associated with BBD. Our results suggest that patterns of early-life weight gain are important to BBD risk. Thus, susceptibility to BBD, like susceptibility to breast cancer, might start in early life. |
