  2. ** Binary logistic regression was used to obtain OR and 95% CI. The overall trend of OR across increasing quartiles was examined by considering the median score in each category as a continuous variable
  3. aModel 1: adjusted for age and BMI
  4. bModel 2: waist circumference, early gestational age, number of children, history of abortion, family history of cancer, history of inflammatory diseases, and use of anti-inflammatory drugs and vitamin D supplements
  5. cModel 3: adjusted for model 2 and history of recent special diet, menopausal status, family history of breast cancer, history of benign breast disease, and use of contraceptives
