Censored cases were defined as follows: (i) recurrence of breast cancer (surgery for breast cancer at 1 year after the index date); (ii) the presence of new cancer or metastasis; (iii) death; and (iv) end of observation (follow up for 1–10 years after the index date). †Model adjusted for age, income, cancer stage, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and history of hyperlipidemia, hypertension and cardiovascular disease. CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio.
