Fig. 2From: Sex steroid hormones and risk of breast cancer: a two-sample Mendelian randomization studyForest plot showing the MR associations between sex hormones and overall, ER+ and ER–BC risk. IVW analysis was carried out to assess the association between an SD increase in total testosterone, bioavailable testosterone, SHBG, DHEAS, estradiol, androstenedione, aldosterone, cortisol, progesterone and 17-OHP on risk of incidence of overall BC (black), ER + BC (grey) and ER–BC (red). OR odds ratio, TT total testosterone, BT bioavailable testosterone, SHBG sex hormone-binding globulin, DHEAS dehydroepiandrosterone sulphate, E2 estradiol, ANDRO androstenedione, ALDO aldosterone, CORT cortisol, PROG progesterone, 17OHP 17-hydroxyprogesteroneBack to article page
