Shouldn't this also be the older you
become the higher your risks for cancer become? In other words, I
don't think this is groundbreaking research. This is part of life
whether this researcher believes it or not. This study is so full of
flaws it should not even have been published or even funded. To
begin with increased urinary track cancer could have been caused by
those using Actos, but this is not mentioned. In fact, all they were
concerned about were individuals who were reported as being on
insulin, which leaves prior oral medications with supposedly no
effect on the increasing rate of cancer. Another example of our
taxpayer dollars being wasted.
At least, “Dr.
Li warned that caution is required in interpreting these results.
"This is a population-based epidemiologic study. The findings
are useful in hypothesis screening for the possible association
between diabetes and cancer [but] should not be overgeneralized to
clinical practice or individual patients."”
This is a good example of junk science
and I will leave it there. I feel that you need to know this and
that is the reason for the short blog.
