| Abstract | The association between infectious mononucleosis (IM) and risk of breast cancer is unclear; no prospective studies have examined this relationship. We examined self-reported history and age at IM in relation to risk of invasive breast cancer.Self-reported history and age at IM were examined in relation to risk of invasive breast cancer in a large cohort of women, the Nurses’ Health Study II (81,807 women followed from 1989 to 2007). Through questionnaires, women were asked whether they ever had IM and if so, at what age. During follow-up, 2,349 cases of invasive breast cancer were documented. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate relative risks (RR) and 95 % confidence intervals (CI) for the association of IM with breast cancer.The multivariable-adjusted RR for history of IM and risk of invasive breast cancer was 1.00 (95 % CI: 0.90–1.11). Similar null results were obtained when estrogen receptor/progesterone receptor positive and negative tumors were considered separately. There were no clear patterns of association between age at IM and risk of breast cancer: compared to women with no history of IM, those who were ≤15 years old when they had IM were at lower risk (RR: 0.77; 95 % CI: 0.60, 0.97), but there was no association for women who had IM at ages 16–19, 20–24, or 30+. However, an increased RR (1.45; 95 % CI: 1.02–2.04) was observed for women who had IM at ages 25–29.Results of this large prospective study do not support a clear association between history of clinical IM and risk of invasive breast cancer. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
