Models adjusted for year of diagnosis, age at non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), time between DM and NMIBC diagnosis, gender, area of residency, neighbourhood income quintile, Charlson comorbidity score and baseline use of anti-diabetic agents.

Cohort composed of individuals included in the main cohort and including individuals who died within six months of NMIBC diagnosis.

Cohort restricted to individuals diagnosed with DM and NMIBC after 1996.

CI: confidence interval; HR: hazard ratio.
