Clinical Pearls:

  • The study found that obesity does not impact bladder cancer mortality specifically, but it does impact overall mortality.
  • Patients diagnosed with bladder cancer that exercise do better than patients diagnosed with bladder cancer that do not exercise.
  • Bladder cancer patients who never smoked do better than patients who currently smoke or had smoked in the past.
