Methodology Flaws and Implications of a Complementary Medicine Study

Abstract

identify the specific pathways involved, which will likely vary by type of cancer.Finally, the increased risk of diabetes after cancer development was similar in women (fully adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.31; 95% CI, 1.19-1.46) and men (aHR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.26-1.52; P = .53 for the interaction). This risk was also observed across all ages, but the association was stronger in younger participants (aHR in participants <50 years of age, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.49-1.96) than in older participants (aHR in participants ≥50 years of age, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.17-1.37; P = .53 for the interaction).
