“…Moreover, patients experience long wait times for beds, making nutritional support intervention by the outpatient nutrition department before surgery crucial for the patient's later recovery. Research findings have demonstrated the beneficial effects of comprehensive nutritional management throughout the entire treatment course for elderly patients at a high risk of malnutrition [24]. Danish surgeons Kehlet and Wilmore introduced the concept of enhanced recovery surgery in 2001 [25].…”

Objective:The purpose of this article is to explore the effect of whole-course nutrition management on accelerated recovery in elderly patients with bladder cancer.Results: 126 elderly patients with bladder cancer completed the study (N accelerated rehabilitation = 63; N control = 63). The levels of albumin, prealbumin, and hemoglobin accelerated rehabilitation group were significantly higher than those in control group (P < 0.05), the albumin supplementation amount, intensive care unit (ICU) monitoring time, and hospitalization cost in the accelerated rehabilitation group were lower than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). The postoperative complication rate of patients in the accelerated rehabilitation group was lower than that of the control group. There was no significant difference between the two groups in body composition body mass index (BMI), actual weight, body fat volume, body fat percentage, fat free weight, visceral fat area Basal metabolic rate, ratio of total body water to protein weight, waist circumference, phase angle (P > 0.05), The degree of loss of skeletal muscle, body water, intracellular water, protein, and body cell mass in accelerated rehabilitation group was lower than that in control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion:The whole-course nutrition management had a positive effect on accelerated recovery in elderly bladder cancer patients.Methods: 126 elderly patients with bladder cancer were randomly divided into an accelerated rehabilitation group (accelerated recovery surgery group) and a control group (traditional treatment group). The baseline values were registered. After admission, the postoperative hematological indicators (albumin, prealbumin, and hemoglobin), and postoperative related indicators (albumin supplementation, postoperative complication rate, ICU monitoring time, and total hospitalization costs) were recorded to simultaneously measure the differences in body composition between two groups of patients.

“…Although literature data are controversial, a healthy diet could reduce the risk of many diseases including BC. In recent years, a protective effect of flavonoids and of the Mediterranean diet, in reducing the BC risk has been observed [14,15]. One possible explanation is that fruits and vegetables are rich in polyphenols, carotenoids and vitamins C and E, which work as antioxidants to prevent DNA oxidation by neutralizing reactive oxygen species [16].…”

The Impact of Meat Intake on Bladder Cancer Incidence: Is It Really a Relevant Risk?

Bladder cancer (BC) represents the second most common genitourinary malignancy. The major risk factors for BC include age, gender, smoking, occupational exposure, and infections. The BC etiology and pathogenesis have not been fully defined yet. Since catabolites are excreted through the urinary tract, the diet may play a pivotal role in bladder carcinogenesis. Meat, conventionally classified as “red”, “white” or “processed”, represents a significant risk factor for chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. In particular, red and processed meat consumption seems to increase the risk of BC onset. The most accepted mechanism proposed for explaining the correlation between meat intake and BC involves the generation of carcinogens, such as heterocyclic amines and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by high-temperature cooking. This evidence claims the consumption limitation of meat. We reviewed the current literature on potential biological mechanisms underlying the impact of meat (red, white, and processed) intake on the increased risk of BC development and progression. Toward this purpose, we performed an online search on PubMed using the term “bladder cancer” in combination with “meat”, “red meat”, “white meat” or “processed meat”. Although some studies did not report any association between BC and meat intake, several reports highlighted a positive correlation between red or processed meat intake, especially salami, pastrami, corned beef and bacon, and BC risk. We speculate that a reduction or rather a weighting of the consumption of red and processed meat can reduce the risk of developing BC. Obviously, this remark claims future indications regarding food education (type of meat to be preferred, quantity of red meat to be eaten and how to cook it) to reduce the risk of developing BC. Further well-designed prospective studies are needed to corroborate these findings.

Purpose of review The aim of this article is to provide an overview of recent findings regarding the risk factors for bladder cancer. Recent findings Most of the available data derive from retrospective analysis. Smoking represents the most common and important risk factor. Occupational, dietary, and environmental exogenic carcinogen exposure, as well as several lifestyle factors, can increase the risk of developing bladder cancer. Summary Bladder cancer is a common malignancy worldwide. Cigarette smoking, exposure to aromatic amines and arsenic are known risk factors for bladder cancer. Evidence on other modifiable risk factors such as carcinogen exposure derived from the diet or environment as well as occupational hazards is still weak. Medical conditions leading to chronic inflammation, altering insulin resistance, negatively modulating the immune system and/or genetic alterations may have a role in bladder cancer carcinogenesis. Further studies are, however, necessary to identify possible exogenic risk factors, as well as their interactions, that partake in the carcinogenesis of bladder cancer.
