flag New study finds type 2 diabetes significantly raises risk of certain cancers, more so in men.

flag A new study links type 2 diabetes (T2D) with a higher risk of certain obesity-related cancers. flag Men with new T2D diagnoses have a 48% increased risk, while women have a 24% increased risk. flag The study, involving over 95,000 people, shows significant links to bowel, pancreatic, and liver cancers, especially in men. flag Women newly diagnosed with T2D had nearly double the risk of pancreatic cancer and five times the risk of liver cancer. flag The research, conducted by the UK Biobank, suggests factors like high insulin levels, blood glucose, and chronic inflammation may play roles in the increased cancer risk.
