Abstract

Our investigation of the cohort showed that the most significant factors increasing the probability of breast cancer are the number of labors (the more labors the more risk of BC and the more risk of malignant transformation of benign tumors), age (the older the smaller risk) and the Quetlet's index (the higher index the higher risk). Other investigated factors were insignificant.
