Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug use is associated with cancer risk reduction in chronic dialysis patients

Abstract: Previous studies have shown that nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) use might be associated with a lower risk of developing cancer in the general population. Patients on dialysis have increased risk for cancer, but there are no studies to determine the relationship between NSAID use and cancer risk in these patients. To identify any association between NSAID use and cancer risk in patients with end-stage renal disease on dialysis, we used Taiwan's National Health Insurance database to conduct a nation… Show more

“…Regarding NSAID effect overall, our results are coherent with those reported in 10 out of 16 case-control studies [68, 1622], while the remaining six studies did not show any effect [2328]. Results from 13 cohort studies hardly support any NSAID effect on breast cancer risk; only four reported protective effects [3, 4, 29, 30], seven did not find any association [5, 3135], and three reported an increase in breast cancer risk [3638].…”

“…In Taiwan, patients who continue dialysis for more than 90 days all apply a catastrophic illness registration card, which ensures the accuracy of our definition of dialysis continuation. The verification of ESRD on chronic dialysis includes a detailed exclusion of acute kidney injury; supported medical records, examination reports, and imaging studies with a comprehensive review by nephrology specialists are required [28]. …”
