INSUFFICIENT LEANING
Recorded sources
3 sources for · 0 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that recurrent urinary tract infections increase the risk of bladder cancer?

Unclear. Several observational studies report an association between recurrent urinary tract infections and higher bladder cancer risk, but the same sources note the causal role remains unclear and that the association may reflect detection of pre-existing tumors rather than causation.
