aResults shown for metabolites associated with ADBV at P < 0.10. Estimates are from robust mixed effects multivariable linear regression models including ADBV as the dependent variable; childhood fixed effects – ln(metabolite level) (continuous), BMI z-score (continuous), age at BMI measurement (continuous), treatment group assignment, race (white/nonwhite) and menstrual cycle phase at blood collection (premenarche/luteal/follicular/unknown); adult fixed effects—BMI and BMI2 at breast density (continuous), college graduate (yes/no), duration hormone use (continuous), number live births (0/1 +), current smoker (yes/no); and DISC clinic as a random effect
