Thyroid cancer and insulin resistance

In conclusion, the association between thyroid cancer and diabetes may be explained by insulin resistance, as shown in observational studies. However, the causal role is yet to be defined. Although the wide use of different antidiabetic agents has been related to thyroid cancer prevalence and progression, future research with drugs such as metformin or GLP-1 RA is still needed.PMID:37957487 | DOI:10.1007/s11154-023-09849-7
