Arsenic methylation and bladder cancer risk in case-control studies in Argentina and the United States

Objective: We sought to assess whether the metabolism of arsenic impacts a person's susceptibility to bladder cancer. Methods: Urinary methylation products were measured in subjects from Argentina (114 cases and 114 controls) and the United States (23 cases and 49 controls). Results: In Argenti...

R Medicina (General) Objective: We sought to assess whether the metabolism of arsenic impacts a person's susceptibility to bladder cancer. Methods: Urinary methylation products were measured in subjects from Argentina (114 cases and 114 controls) and the United States (23 cases and 49 controls). Results: In Argentina, the adjusted odds ratio (OR) for subjects with a high proportion of ingested arsenic excreted as monomethylarsonate (%MMA) was 2.17 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.02-4.63) in smokers and 0.48 (95% CI = 0.17-1.33) in nonsmokers. In the United States, the adjusted ORs for high %MMA in subjects with arsenic intakes less than and greater than 100 μg/d were 1.20 (95% CI = 0.27-5.38) and 2.70 (95% CI = 0.39-18.6). Conclusions: Overall, these results are consistent with data from Taiwan suggesting that some individuals who excrete a higher proportion of ingested arsenic as MMA are more susceptible to arsenic-related cancer. 2006-12-31 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess application/pdf spa http://pa.bibdigital.ucc.edu.ar/4002/1/A_Steinmaus_Bates_Yuan_Kalman_Atallah_Rey_Biggs_Hopenhayn_Moore_Hoang_Smith.pdf Steinmaus, Craig ORCID: https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2697-843X <https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2697-843X>, Bates, Michael N., Yuan, Yan, Kalman, Dave, Atallah, Raja, Rey, Omar A.
