Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor among Chinese females. We should focus on the research of risk assessment models of gene-environmental factors to guide primary and secondary prevention, and this public health strategy is expected to maximize the health benefits of the population. This paper introduces previous studies of risk factors and predictive models for Chinese breast cancer and provides three points for future research. Firstly, we should explore the specific risk factors related to breast cancer risk in Chinese population, such as overweight or reproductive control measures. Secondly, we should use evidence-based and machine learning methods to select environmental-genetic risk factors. Finally, we should set up an information collective platform for breast cancer risk factors to test the validity of prediction models based on a long-term follow-up cohort of Chinese females.
