摘要
Abstract Breast cancer development is a particularly illustrative example for life course epidemiology, with antecedents in utero and risk factors spanning pubertal and adolescent development, pregnancy, and menopause. After a brief introduction and review of the established adult risk factors for breast cancer, we assess the evidence linking breast cancer with adolescent, pubertal, childhood, infant, and prenatal exposures. We end the chapter with a discussion of methodological approaches to investigate breast cancer in a life course framework in which risk factors occurring at each life stage are linked to provide possible pathways from early events to adulthood and subsequent occurrence of breast cancer; we use body size as an example.
