Type 2 diabetes, glycaemic traits and upper gastrointestinal cancer risk: a prospective cohort study
Conclusion
Our results indicate that T2D and elevated levels of glycaemic traits may be risk factors for incident UGI cancer. Individuals with a high genetic risk and T2D have a significantly increased risk of developing UGI cancer.
