Research has shown that sleep patterns significantly influence tumor onset and progression. In this research, the association was examined through the application of a two‑sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach. For the analysis of seven sleep patterns, genetic tools were sourced from both the UK Biobank and 23andMe, including morning/evening person (chronotype) n = 177,604, morning person (chronotype) n = 248,094, daytime dozing/sleepiness n = 193,472, getting up in the morning n = 193,717, and sleeplessness n = 193,987; sleep duration n = 192,810; and nap during the day n = 166,853. The Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC) supplied genome‑wide association studies (GWAS) data, including 133,384 breast cancer cases and 113,789 controls, alongside subtype‑specific data with 106,278 cases and 91,477 controls. We discovered that chronotype encompasses both morning and evening types contributes to the risk of overall breast cancer. While daytime dozing and morning person (chronotype) are linked to a lower risk of breast cancer in general, In subtype‑specific analyses, morning person (chronotype) was negatively associated with luminal B, HER2‑negative‑like, and daytime dozing was negatively correlated with luminalA‑like, luminal B‑like, and HER2‑enriched‑like. The study corroborates that chronotype is a danger element for breast cancer, aligning with previous observational findings. The association between being a morning person (chronotype) or having daytime dozing and a decreased risk of breast cancer underscores the significance of sleep patterns in formulating strategies for cancer prevention.  \nKeywords Sleep traits, Chronotype, Daytime dozing, Breast cancer, Mendelian randomization  \nAbbreviations  \nMR Mendelian randomization  \nGWAS Genome-wide association studies  \nBCAC Breast Cancer Association Consortium  \nSNPs Single nucleotide polymorphisms  \nIVs Instrumental variables  \nLD Linkage disequilibrium IVW Inverse Variance Weighted  \nGRS Genotyping and weighted genetic risk score  \nAcross the globe, breast cancer emerges as the primary malignancy affecting females, holding the position asthe foremost contributor to oncological fatalities within this population, thus severely impacting the health and longevity of women1. The latest 2020 statistics estimate that approximately 2.3 million individuals were diagnosed with breast cancer, resulting in approximately 685,000 fatalities. Over half of these diagnoses and two-thirds of the related deaths are reported in the less developed regions, with an anticipated surge in cases in areas undergoing economic transformation1,2. Global research efforts have sought to delineate the etiology of breast cancer, revealing it to be a multifaceted disease influenced by genetic factors, lifestyle, environmental exposures, and their interplay3. A myriad of lifestyle factors, including but not limited to body composition, obesity, physical activity levels, alcohol intake, smoking habits, dietary patterns, and vitamin intake, have been definitively linked to the risk and advancement of breast cancer4–6. In recent years, scientific inquiry has increasingly concentrated  \n1Department of Breast Center, Mianyang Central Hospital, School of Medicine, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Mianyang, Sichuan, People’s Republic of China. 2Department of Neurosurgery, Mianyang Central Hospital, School of Medicine, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Mianyang,  \nSichuan, People’s Republic of China.*[email: jiangzhangtong@sina.com](email: jiangzhangtong@sina.com); [zhangye6660@163.com](zhangye6660@163.com)  \n[www. nature.com/scientific","cbCaim2TQkDEygiT","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaim2TQkDEygiT","pdf",1836388,"English","# Introduction\n# Sleep-related risk context\n## Epidemiology and lifestyle links\n## Sleep disorders prevalence\n# Chronotype and circadian factors\n## Genetic and environmental determinants","[{\"question\":\"Which sleep traits were evaluated in the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study analyzed seven sleep patterns, including chronotype (morning/evening), morning person, daytime dozing/sleepiness, getting up in the morning, sleeplessness, sleep duration, and day naps.\"},{\"question\":\"What data sources were used for the Mendelian randomization analysis?\",\"answer\":\"Genetic instruments for sleep traits came from UK Biobank and 23andMe, while breast cancer outcome data were provided by the Breast Cancer Association Consortium, including overall and subtype-specific GWAS results.\"},{\"question\":\"What relationship did the study find between chronotype and breast cancer risk?\",\"answer\":\"Chronotype, encompassing both morning and evening types, was associated with overall breast cancer risk.
