Less clear is the impact of such exposures on the subsequent development of multiple myeloma (MM). Using the population\u2010based U.S. Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results\u2010Medicare dataset, 15,318 elderly MM and 200,000 controls were identified to investigate the impact of 14 common community\u2010acquired infections and risk of MM. Odds ratios (ORs) and associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were adjusted for sex, age and calendar year of selection. The 13\u2010month period prior to diagnosis\/selection was excluded. Risk of MM was increased by 5\u201339% following Medicare claims for eight of the investigated infections. Positive associations were observed for several infections including bronchitis (adjusted OR 1.14, 95% CI 1.09\u20131.18), sinusitis (OR 1.15, 95% CI 1.10\u20131.20) pneumonia (OR 1.27, 95% CI 1.21\u20131.33), herpes zoster (OR 1.39, 95% CI 1.29\u20131.49) and cystitis (OR 1.09, 95% CI 1.05\u20131.14). Each of these infections remained significantly elevated following the exclusion of more than 6 years of claims data. Exposure to infectious antigens may therefore play a role in the development of MM. Alternatively, the observed associations may be a manifestation of an underlying immune disturbance present several years prior to MM diagnosis and thereby part of the natural history of disease progression.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ijc.28479","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,10,8]],"date-time":"2013-10-08T15:50:22Z","timestamp":1381247422000},"page":"1734-1740","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":19,"title":["Common community\u2010acquired infections and subsequent risk of multiple myeloma: A population\u2010based study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"134","author":[{"given":"Charlene M.","family":"McShane","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Cancer Epidemiology and Health Services Research Group, Centre for Public Health Queen's University Belfast Belfast Northern Ireland United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Liam J.","family":"Murray","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cancer Epidemiology and Health Services Research Group, Centre for Public Health Queen's University Belfast Belfast Northern Ireland United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Eric A.","family":"Engels","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics, National Cancer Institute National Institutes of Health, Rockville MD, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ola","family":"Landgren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Multiple Myeloma Section, National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health Bethesda MD, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lesley A.","family":"Anderson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cancer Epidemiology and Health Services Research Group, Centre for Public Health Queen's University Belfast Belfast Northern Ireland United Kingdom"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,10,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1200\/JCO.2005.03.2086"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s002770100330"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1086\/605664"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/archinte.1973.03650100076014"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2141.2003.04355.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood-2008-12-194241"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood-2008-12-195008"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMoa01133202"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood-2010-07-298760"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1473-3099(02)00437-1"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/CVI.00021-11"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nature07205"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood-2007-10-121285"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood-2011-04-347559"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00051358"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"277","DOI":"10.1023\/A:1008821119851","article-title":"Multiple Myeloma and Work in Agriculture: results of a Case\u2010Control Study in Forl\u00ec, Italy","volume":"9","author":"Nanni O","journal-title":"Cancer Causes Control"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_18_1","first-page":"1697","article-title":"Respiratory tract infections in the pathway to multiple myeloma: a population\u2010based study in Scandinavia","volume":"91","author":"Landgren O","journal-title":"Haematologica"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/bjc.1991.172"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/jech.54.6.431"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1158\/1055-9965.EPI-08-0408"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_22_1","unstructured":"Overview of the SEER Program.
