Our primary objectives were to estimate the pooled risk of all and site-specific malignancies in people with TB compared to the general population or suitable controls. Our secondary objective was to describe the pooled risk of cancer at different time points following TB diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study was prospectively registered (PROSPERO: CRD42021277819). We systematically searched MEDLINE, Embase, and the Cochrane Database for studies published between 1980 and 2021. We included original observational research articles that estimated cancer risk among people with TB compared to controls. Studies were excluded if they had a study population of fewer than 50 individuals; used cross-sectional, case series, or case report designs; and had a follow-up period of less than 12 months. Random-effects meta-analysis was used to obtain the pooled risk of cancer in the TB population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec003\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Of the 5,160 unique studies identified, data from 17 studies were included. When compared to controls, the pooled standardized incidence ratios (SIR) of all cancer (SIR 1.62, 95% CI 1.35\u20131.93, I\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      = 97%) and lung cancer (SIR 3.20, 95% CI 2.21\u20134.63, I\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      = 90%) was increased in the TB population. The pooled risk of all cancers and lung cancer was highest within the first year following TB diagnosis (SIR 4.70, 95% CI 1.80\u201312.27, I\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      = 99%) but remained over five years of follow-up.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>People with TB have an increased risk of both pulmonary and non-pulmonary cancers. Further research on cancer following TB diagnosis is needed to develop effective screening and early detection strategies. Clinicians should have a high index of suspicion for cancer in people with TB, particularly in the first year following TB diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0278661","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,30]],"date-time":"2022-12-30T13:45:55Z","timestamp":1672407955000},"page":"e0278661","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":57,"title":["Tuberculosis and risk of cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"17","author":[{"given":"Pauline","family":"Luczynski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3560-3031","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Philip","family":"Poulin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kamila","family":"Romanowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8879-4989","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"James C.","family":"Johnston","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,30]]},"reference":[{"issue":"7","key":"pone.0278661.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"984","DOI":"10.1016\/S1473-3099(20)30919-1","article-title":"Quantifying the global number of tuberculosis survivors: a modelling study","volume":"21","author":"PJ Dodd","year":"2021","journal-title":"Lancet Infect Dis"},{"key":"pone.0278661.ref002","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
