| Beschreibung: | Purpose
Iron deficiency anemia (IDA) is the most common form of anemia worldwide, resulting in a high burden of disease. Accumulating evidence suggests that IDA is associated with the development of gastrointestinal (GI) cancers. Methods Data from the IDA database (IQVIA) of primary care practices in Germany of adult patients first diagnosed with IDA between January 2005 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and compared with a 1:1 propensity score-adjusted cohort without IDA. Study outcomes were first stomach cancer or colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis up to 10 years after the index date as a function of IDA. Results A total of 122,502 individuals with IDA and 122,502 individuals without IDA were included. The 10-year cumulative incidence of CRC was 1.4% in the IDA patients compared to 0.8% in the cohort without IDA (p < 0.001). Regression analysis revealed a significant association between IDA and subsequent CRC (HR 2.05; 95% CI 1.83–2.30). Stomach cancer was diagnosed in 0.3% of IDA patients compared to 0.2% in the non-IDA cohort during the 10-year follow-up period (p = 0.002). However, this was significant only in the age group > 80 years (HR 2.73; 95% CI 1.60–4.67) and in men (HR 1.90; 95% CI 1.38–2.61). Conclusion These findings add to the literature and suggest an association between IDA and GI cancers. The extent to which this association is due to GI bleeding or other pathophysiological processes that may be caused by IDA requires further investigation, particularly experimental studies. | |||||||
