We determined the hemoglobin adduct levels of one aromatic amine of cigarette smoke, 4-aminobiphenyl (4-ABP), in smoking controls and in patients with transitional cell bladder carcinoma. Covalently bound 4-ABP was measured by capillary gas-chromatography and negative-ion chemical ionization mass-spectrometry, using deuterated 4-ABP as internal standard. Smoking was quantified measuring the urinary excretion of cotinine. Thirteen cases and controls were paired for urinary cotinine levels. Bladder carcinoma patients had slightly higher levels of 4-ABP hemoglobin adducts than controls (means +/- S.D. were 103 +/- 47 and 65 +/- 44, respectively). This difference was significant using a t-test for paired samples (P = 0.04) and non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis rank analysis (P = 0.033).

D012044 Regression Analysis Procedures for finding the mathematical function which best describes the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variables. In linear regression (see LINEAR MODELS) the relationship is constrained to be a straight line and LEAST-SQUARES ANALYSIS is used to determine the best fit. In logistic regression (see LOGISTIC MODELS) the dependent variable is qualitative rather than continuously variable and LIKELIHOOD FUNCTIONS are used to find the best relationship. In multiple regression, the dependent variable is considered to depend on more than a single independent variable.
