All of the estimates from conditional logistic regression were adjusted for age at mammogram and the variables included into the model. AUC area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, BIC Bayesian information criterion, BMI body mass index, CI confidence interval, DA dense area, NDA non-dense area, OPERA odds per adjusted standard deviation, PDA percent dense area, SD standard deviation. aLikelihood ratio test for the interaction with age at diagnosis
