Weighted Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, modeling AURKA F31I as a recessive genotypic effect. Results overall, by menopausal status and by oophorectomy status account for birth cohort, group status, country, and mutation status. Mutation-specific results account for birth cohort, group status and country. Group-specific results account for birth cohort, mutation status and country. Robust variance estimates were used to correct for possible non-independence of study subjects.

*

Cox proportional hazards regression analysis restricted to cases for whom genetic diagnosis is less than three years after breast cancer diagnosis.
