AB  - The relationship between diet and breast cancer is uncertain. We assessed the 
      relationship of 4 common dietary patterns to the risk of breast cancer using the 
      UK Women's Cohort Study (UKWCS). A total of 35,372 women aged between 35 to 69 yr 
      were recruited from 1995 to 1998. The UKWCS was selected to have a wide range of 
      dietary intakes; 28% were self-reported vegetarian. Diet was assessed at baseline 
      by a 217-item food frequency questionnaire. Four dietary patterns were defined 
      based on a hierarchy of consumption of fish and meat to reflect commonly consumed 
      dietary patterns. Hazards ratios (HRs) were estimated using Cox regression 
      adjusted for known confounders. Subjects were followed up for a mean of 9 yr, and 
      330 premenopausal and 453 postmenopausal women developed invasive breast cancer. 
      In postmenopausal women, there was a strong inverse association between the fish 
      eating dietary pattern 0.60 (95% CI = 0.38-0.96) but not for a vegetarian pattern 
      0.85 (95% CI = 0.58-1.25) compared to red meat eaters. There were no 
      statistically significant associations with dietary pattern and risk of 
      premenopausal breast cancer. A fish eating dietary pattern that excludes meat 
      from the diet may confer some benefit with regard to risk of postmenopausal 
      breast cancer.
