Conditional logistic regression analysis [Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals]; adjustment for BMI, family history of breast cancer, childbearing history, age at first live birth, duration of breast-feeding, age at menarche, ever OC use, education. Index dates 0.5 to 6.0 = exposure information was not considered 0.5, 2.0, 4.0, and 6.0 years prior to cancer diagnosis.
