Renal cancer survival and use of 5alpha-reductase inhibitors or androgen deprivation therapy Open
Purpose Several etiological factors have been implicated in renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and hormonal receptor activity appears to influence RCC-specific mortality. This study aimed to examine the potential association between the use of 5α…

Renal cancer survival in clear cell renal cancer compared to other types of tumor histology: A population-based cohort study Open
Introduction Renal cancer (RC) presents a challenge with increasing incidence and mortality. This study compares RC cancer-specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS) based on histological type. Study design This population-based ret…

Improved renal cancer prognosis among users of drugs targeting renin-angiotensin system Open
Purpose We explored renal cell cancer (RCC) survival among users of antihypertensive medication as hypertension is proposed to be a risk factor for RCC and ACE-inhibitors and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) have been associated with i…
