Stratification analysis showed that rs9383938 and rs2228480 raised the breast cancer susceptibility in individuals aged younger than 52 years old. Rs1801132 of ESR1 was significantly associated with the status of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 in the allele model and genetic models (P< .05). This study demonstrated that ESR1 polymorphisms might influence breast cancer susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. Further mechanism studies are needed to confirm the contribution of ESR1.

Imaging in stroke, allows its classification into ischaemic stroke (IS) or intracranial haemorrhagic stroke (ICH), ensuring time-sensitive treatment to be administered. Imaging can also allow detection of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs), which may further determine pharmacological intervention in acute stroke. True gradient echo (T2∗GRE) or susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) have high sensitivity for the detection of CMBs. These two sequences are included in the national guidelines; however, the implementation of these guidelines can vary depending on local interpretation and scanner capabilities. To explore the use and application of blood sensitive MRI sequences in a specialist UK stroke unit for the detection of CMBs, to improve local practice. A retrospective data analysis of the native database, spanning a 6-month period, was used. The data of 281 acute stroke patients with an MRI were reviewed and analysed. The MRI sequences applied, and the final diagnosis were noted for each case. Of the 281 acute stroke patients with MRI, 259 (92.1%) had an IS, 16 (5.68%) an ICH and 6 (2.14%) had both. Overall, 13 (4.63%) had a CMB diagnosis. All of these 13 pa
