Introduction: The early diagnosis of breast cancer as prevalent cancer among women, is a necessity in the research on cancers since it could simplify the clinical management of other patients. The importance of the classification of breast cancer patients into high- or low-risk groups has led research groups in the biomedical and informatics departments to evaluate and use computer techniques s...

background: breast cancer is the most prevalent malignancy in women and there are many possible reasons for its occurrence. one important issue in different kinds of cancers is the spreading of cancerous cells to other tissues (metastasis). therefore, we have investigated the factors associated with the prediction of metastasis of breast cancer with data mining tools. methods: this study is a c...

Breast cancer remains the most common in women United States. For certain at high risk for breast cancer, endocrine therapy (ET) can greatly decrease risk. Tools such as Cancer Risk Assessment Tool (or Gail Model) and International Intervention Study calculator are available to help identify increased cancer.

Introduction: Vitamin D fulfills its crucial role in cell proliferation and death through signal transduction into the nucleus by vitamin D receptor (VDR). Recent studies have depicted the association between VDR gene polymorphisms and different cancers, including breast cancer. This study attempted to consider the relationship between VDR gene polymorphisms and breast cancer risk among women i...
