We evaluated the joint associations between a new 313-variant PRS (PRS313) and questionnaire-based breast cancer risk factors for women of European ancestry, using 72,284 cases and 80,354 controls from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium. Interactions were evaluated using standard logistic regression, and a newly developed case-only method, for breast cancer risk overall and by estrogen receptor status. After accounting for multiple testing, we did not find evidence that per-standard deviation PRS313 odds ratio differed across strata defined by individual risk factors. Goodness-of-fit tests did not reject the assumption of a multiplicative model between PRS313 and each risk factor. Variation in projected absolute lifetime risk of breast cancer associated with classical risk factors was greater for women with higher genetic risk (PRS313 and family history), and on average 17.5% higher in the highest vs lowest deciles of genetic risk. These findings have implications for risk prevention for women at increased risk of breast cancer.

Oral anticoagulants (OACs) are considered the mainstay in preventing stroke in atrial fibrillation (AF). OAC treatment remains suboptimal among AF patients, even after the introduction of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). We aimed to assess trends overtime and current implementation of OAC treatment guidelines in AF, using a large dataset of real world data from Israel.Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study that includes all adult members of Clalit Health Services, the largest healthcare provider in Israel, with newly diagnosed nonvalvular AF between January 2014 and December 2019 with CHA 2 DS 2 -VASc score ≥2. OAC treatment rates were calculated and multivariate regression models were used to identify predictors of OACs initiation.Results: Overall, 46 531 patients were included in the study. The 3-months cumulative OAC treatment rates increased consistently over the years: 46.9% (95% confi-
