  1. aThe ORs for BMI (kg/m2) and BA (cm2), and PD (continuous models) are cited in per standard deviation increase; bfor the binary menopausal variable, pre-menopausal status is the reference; cAUC is a measure of discriminatory accuracy. AUC, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve; BA, breast area; BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; PD, percent density; OR, odds ratio.
