Abstract
The percentages of breast cancer cases in a given population attributable to specific risk factors (i.e., the population-attributable risks) can be calculated; determination of such risks associated with potentially modifiable risks factors, such as diet (e.g., levels of consumption of fruits, vegetables, vitamins, etc.), alcohol consumption, exercise, and body weight, are necessary to focus prevention strategies.Pubblicazioni consigliate
