Abstract

Aims of this population-based cohort study was to compare the overall and site-specific cancer incidence in individuals with alcohol or drug use disorders with incidence of the general population, and to estimate excess cancer risk in a subgroup of individuals who have hepatitis C virus or HIV infection. The study included 4373 residents of Reggio Emilia province diagnosed with alcohol or drug use disorders during the period from 1 January 1985 to 31 December 2014. All newly diagnosed cancers registered from 1 January 1996 to 31 December 2014 were taken into account to calculate the standardised incidence ratio (SIR) of cancers of any site and of site-specific cancers. SIR of cancer at any site was 1.6 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.4-1.9). Anogenital cancers were associated with the highest excess risk (SIR=11.9; 95% CI 4.9-28.5), followed by oesophageal (SIR=9.5; 95% CI 3.6-25.3) and cervical cancer (SIR=8.6; 95% CI 2.8-26.7). Excess risk of all cancer sites, except for breast cancer, was observed among individuals with alcohol use disorders and of all cancer sites, except breast and kidney cancers, among individuals with drug use disorders. Among hepatitis C virus-positive individuals, cancer at any site risk was 1.9 (95% C...Continue Reading
