Exploring association between statin use and breast cancer risk: an updated meta-analysis.

Purpose: The benefits of statin treatment for preventing cardiac disease are well established.

We, therefore, performed an updated meta-analysis to provide a precise estimate of the risk of breast cancer in individuals undergoing statin therapy.
