0.100 Biomarker group BEFREE In the multivariable model with adjustment for established breast cancer risk factors, serum leptin was a significant predictor of breast cancer risk (OR 1.746; 95% CI, 1.226-2.556) and clinicopathological characteristics of breast cancer including TNM, tumor size, lymph node status, and histological grade (OR 1.461-1.695); but when marrow FF was additionally added to the regression model, marrow FF but not leptin levels was observed to be an independent risk factor for breast cancer risk (OR 1.940; 95% CI, 1.306-2.910) and clinicopathological characteristics of breast cancer (OR 1.770-1.903). 28188108 2017
