| Abstract | Background Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been reported as a risk factor for brain cancer development. However, the magnitude of the impact of TBI on systemic cancer development has not been clarified. Methods A retrospective longitudinal cohort study was conducted using the Taiwan Longitudinal Health Insurance Database between January 2000 and December 2011. A total of 35,306 patients were initially enrolled, and 14,795 patients with mild TBI and 14,795 patients with moderate/severe TBI were matched using the National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) of TBI adjusted for potential confounding factors. Results After matching, the results showed that patients with moderate/severe TBI had a high mortality rate (17.7% vs. 10.4%) and shorter time interval from TBI to death (mean 3.6 years vs. 5.8 years). No differences were observed in cancer incidence (4.1% vs. 4.1%) or risk factors for mortality between mild and moderate/severe TBI patients. However, patients aged between 46 and 55 years, female patients, and patients with pre-existing renal disease had a significant higher cancer incidence risk in moderate/severe TBI compared with mild TBI patients. The top 15 most common cancers showed that mild TBI patients had a higher percentage of head and neck cancer. The overall mortality rate in all TBI patients diagnosed with cancer was about 50%, and the cancer-specific mortality is approximately 85% in death of TBI patients with cancer. Conclusions We concluded that the incidence risk of a new cancer diagnosis and mortality risk of TBI patients with cancer between the mild TBI and moderate/severe TBI patients were not significantly different. |

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.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
