Abstract
Our data indicated that BMI was an independent factor in patients with BC, with an association indicating a decreased incidence for luminal-like subtype and increased incidence for triple-negative subtype among premenopausal patients. However, this significance was not found in postmenopausal patients. Accordingly, a plausible etiological heterogeneity in BC might play a role among immunohistochemical subtypes in every life stage of women.
