  1. The 85 268 women, aged 15–91, accumulated 665 987 person-years, censored at death and excluding time before and after the population-based cancer registry in the same region had complete data.
  2. bOther ancestry includes European (including all Hispanics), other, and missing ancestry. Premenopausal are cancers occurring before age 50. Postmenopausal are cancers occurring at or after age 50.
