abstract = {The risk of breast cancer among hypertensive patients who
use beta-blockers has attracted attention. However, the
evidence is inconsistent and investigation of the
dose-specific associations for subtypes of beta-blockers are
limited.By incorporating Swedish national registers, breast
cancer risk was estimated in women with hypertension who
used nonselective beta-blockers and beta-1 selective
blockers compared with propensity score-matched non-users.
The cumulative defined daily dose was used to study the
dose-response association. Test of interaction between
beta-blocker use and other antihypertensive medications was
performed.Hypertensive patients taking beta-1 selective
blockers (metoprolol, atenolol, bisoprolol) had an increased
risk of breast cancer with a hazard ratio (HR) and $95\%$
confidence interval (CI) of 2.39 (1.95-2.94), 2.31
(1.46-3.64), and 3.02 (2.09-4.36), respectively. All of the
observed associations were dose-dependent (P trend <0.0001).
No significant association was found for the nonselective
beta-blocker (propranolol) except that among users of agents
acting on the renin-angiotensin system, those who used
propranolol had increased breast cancer risk. Modification
of agents acting on the renin-angiotensin system on breast
cancer risk was also observed for atenolol.The increased
risk of breast cancer associates with the use of beta-1
selective blockers in a dose-response manner.Breast cancer
surveillance is recommended for hypertensive female patients
using beta-1 selective blockers.},
