Alcohol, smoking, and risk of HER2-overexpressing and triple-negative breast cancer relative to estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer

Baglia ML, et al. - Researchers conducted a population-based case-case study among women aged 20–69 years to determine the link between alcohol, smoking, and risk of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-overexpressing (H2E) and triple-negative (TN) breast cancer vs estrogen receptor [ER+] breast cancers.
