Abstract:
Objective To assess the relationship between type 2 diabetes and the risk of kidney cancer. Methods PubMed, Medline, CNKI and VIP were used to identify studies which regarded the relationship between type 2 diabetes and risk of kidney cancer up to July 2014. The relative risks (RRs) and the corresponding 95% confidence interals (CIs) were used to estimate the association between type 2 diabetes and the risk of kidney cancer through software STATA. Results 8 studies were included in this analysis. Compared to the popula-tion without type 2 diabetes, there was an increased risk of kidney cancer in the type 2 diabetes patients, the pooled RR (95%CI) was 1. 55 (1. 24,1. 92),P<0. 05. Conclusion Our meta-analysis suggestes that type 2 diabetes can increase the risk of kidney cancer.
