Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus and the risk of renal cancer. Methods: A search was carried out on PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China Biology Medicine disc (CBM), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang and other databases. The search period was from 2000 to 2022. The two authors independently conducted literature screening, extracted literature data, and then conducted a literature quality evaluation. The type of study is a cohort study. Meta-analysis was carried out on the included literature through Stata12.0 software, and the combined value was calculated with RR value and 95% confidence interval. Subgroup analysis was carried out to explore the impact of different factors on the overall results. Results: A total of 10 articles were included. Through cohort study, the meta-analysis on the risk of type 2 diabetes and renal cancer showed that the combined effect value Risk Ratio (RR) = 1.57 with 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) (1.36, 1.82) and P<0.05. The difference had a significant impact, indicating that the risk of renal cancer in type 2 diabetes patients was 1.55 times higher than that in non-type 2 diabetes patients. The subgroup analysis showed that the combined effect value RR and 95% CI for men was 1.49 (1.26, 1.75), and the combined effect value RR and 95% CI for women was 1.60 (1.35, 1.88), which was basically consistent. Conclusion: Type 2 diabetes can significantly increase the risk of renal cell carcinoma, and the former is a risk factor for the latter. It is suggested that multi-center studies with larger sample sizes should be conducted in the future, and adjustments should be made according to the type of diabetes, the source of the study population, the pathological type of renal cell carcinoma, the use of hypoglycemic drugs, and other factors, to provide a reliable basis for the study of the relationship between diabetes and renal cell carcinoma. At present, the specific mechanism of diabetes increasing the risk of renal cell carcinoma and whether diabetes increases mortality due to renal cell carcinoma is still unclear and needs further research.
