Additive interaction of diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease in cancer patient mortality risk.

ABSTRACT: We investigated the additive interaction of diabetes mellitus (DM) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) on the risk of mortality in cancer patients and evaluated the impact of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) on mortality in cancer patients with DM. We retrospectively analyzed 101,684 cancer patients. A multivariable Cox regression model was used for assessing mortality risk. Relative excess risk due to interaction (RERI), attributable proportion (AP), and synergy index (SI) were used to evaluate the additive interactive effect. The adjusted hazard ratio (aHR, 95%CI) for mortality was significant for those with CKD alone (1.53, 1.39-1.68), DM alone (1.25, 1.2-1.3), and both CKD and DM (1.99, 1.84-2.17) compared to non-CKD and non-DM cancer patients. The additive interaction between CKD and DM was
