Dossus et al. also found a statistically significant positive association between CRP and breast cancer risk for postmenopausal women with a waist circumference of ≥88 cm (per natural log increase in concentration: OR 1.74, 95% CI: 1.13, 2.66), but not for postmenopausal women with a waist circumference of <88 cm (OR 1.08, 95% CI: 0.93, 1.26) [30]; this was the only study to stratify by waist circumference. This evidence concerns the gene CRP and breast carcinoma.
