- Abstract
Background: Bladder cancer is the ninth most common cancer worldwide and associated with the dietary and lifestyle factors. Aim: To determine the relation between some factors and development of BC in patients attending Minia Oncology centre and compare them with their control. Methods: Study included 100 BC patients attending Minia oncology centre and 100 control subjects matched by age and sex. Subjects participating in the study filled in a questionnaire including questions about socio-demographic data, medical history and dietary and lifestyle factors. Results: Our results showed that the most predictable risk factors were recurrent UTI infections (OR=7.6), followed by BC family history (OR=6.1), Urinary stones history (OR =5.04), Schistosomal infection history (OR =4.92), wait long hours to use toilet (OR =2.25), drink coffee (OR =1.32), smoking index (OR= 1.29) and soft drinks (OR=1.08) but protective factors were eating fruits (OR=0.77), drink high number of water cups/day (OR=0.78), drink milk (OR=0.82), eating vegetables (OR=0.88) and drink black tea (OR= 0.88). Conclusion: Dietary factors play an important role in development of BC and dietary modification should be encouraged and supported.
