Abstract
This thesis is a comprehensive work of up to date research on the topic of bladder cancer. Until now there have only been published studies on individual subsets of contributory and preventative factors in the progression and avoidance of the disease respectively. By searching through PubMed, this work is a compilation of the most relevant research in order to provide a more holistic viewpoint on bladder cancer. This thesis will review the contributions and potential therapeutics to bladder cancer, analyzing diet and nutrition, lifestyle and behavior, occupational and environmental factors, pharmaceutical drugs, and genetics. There was an abundance of information in the most significant correlations being smoking and aromatic amines. There is a need for more comprehensive studies on diet and nutrition.
