| Abstract | Studies have indicated that diabetes is a risk factor for bladder cancer; however, many failed to adjust for confounding variables. An earlier publication from the Iowa Women’s Health Study reported a positive association of baseline diabetes with bladder cancer risk between 1986 and 1998, although the number of cases was small (n = 112). We re-examined the diabetes–bladder cancer risk association by accounting for 12 more years of follow-up and assessed whether the association varied by diabetes duration, body mass index, or waist-to-hip ratio (WHR).Proportional hazards regression was used to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) of bladder cancer (n = 277) in relation to diabetes (before enrollment and during follow-up) and diabetes duration using a time-dependent approach.In a multivariate time-dependent analysis, the HR for bladder cancer was 1.69 (95 % CI 1.40–2.41) in relation to diabetes among 37,327 postmenopausal women initially free of cancer. There was an interaction between diabetes and WHR (p = 0.01). Bladder cancer HR in diabetic women with WHR > 0.9 was 2.5 times higher than expected. There was no dose–response relation of bladder cancer risk with diabetes duration. Compared to no diabetes, HRs were 1.77, 2.03, and 1.55 for diabetes durations of ≤5, 6–10, and >10 years, respectively.We confirmed a positive association between diabetes and bladder cancer risk among white postmenopausal women. We also observed a synergistic interaction between diabetes and high WHR in bladder cancer development that might be explained by increased insulin resistance and inflammation related to abdominal obesity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
