BACKGROUND
Recently, the anticarcinogenic effects of green tea have been studied in sites other than the urinary tract. The present study examined the inhibition by green tea of vesical tumors induced in rats by N-butyl-N-(4-hydroxybutyl) nitrosamine (BBN).
METHODS
In the first series of
BACKGROUND
Recently, the anticarcinogenic effects of green tea have been studied in sites other than the urinary tract. Although the incidence of bladder cancer has increased, responses to therapy have been limited. The present work examined the preventive effects of green tea against bladder tumors
Researchers have investigated green tea as a potential protectant against cancer. This review focuses on studies of green tea in humans. Green tea contains polyphenols, chemicals that act as powerful antioxidants. Epidemiological and human studies have shown varying results. Thirty-one human studies
OBJECTIVE
Green tea (GT) is one of the most popular beverages worldwide whose beneficial effects on health have been demonstrated. Recent studies suggest that GT may contribute to reduction of cancer risk and progression. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of whole GT on urinary
To examine the prognostic significance of lifestyle factors in urinary bladder cancer, we conducted a follow-up study of 258 incident bladder cancer patients, who were originally recruited in a case-control study in metropolitan Nagoya. Information on individual survivals was obtained from the

We conducted a population-based case-control study of patients with bladder cancer and of controls drawn randomly from the general population of Metropolitan Nagoya and interviewed both groups. The incidence rates of bladder cancer were 2.42 and 7.05/100,000 for females and males, respectively. The
Polyphenon E, a standardized mixture of green tea polyphenols, was examined for its chemopreventive efficacy against chemically induced urinary bladder and mammary cancers. In the present study, Polyphenon E was administered after the last dose of 4-hydroxybutyl(butyl)nitrosamine, or roughly 30% of
