ABSTRACT
(1) Background:
Among the chronic complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus, cancer has become the leading cause of death in several countries. Our objective was to determine whether prevalent type 2 diabetes mellitus is associated with a higher incidence of cancer. (2)Methods:
This study comprised a nationwide analysis conducted in Hungary. The study population was divided into two groups a type 2 diabetes mellitus group vs. a non-diabetic group. The primary outcome was the risk related to overall cancer incidence; a key secondary outcome was the overall incidence of cancer in distinct study years; and a further outcome was the annual percent changes. (3)Results:
The odds ratio related to the overall incidence of cancer was 2.50 (95% confidence interval 2.46-2.55, p < 0.0001) in patients with diabetes as related to non-diabetic controls. The odds ratio was higher in males than in females [ORmales 2.76 (2.70-2.82) vs. ORfemales 2.27 (2.22-2.33), p < 0.05 for male-to-female comparison]. The annual cancer incidence rate declined in non-diabetic controls, but not in patients with diabetes [-1.79% (-2.07--1.52%), p < 0.0001] vs. -0.50% (-1.12-+0.10%), p = 0.0991]. Several types of cancer showed a decreasing tendency in non-diabetic controls, but not in patients with type 2 diabetes. (4)Conclusions:
Type 2 diabetes is associated with a higher risk of cancer. While the cancer incidence decreased for non-diabetic individuals with time, it remained unchanged in patients with T2DM.
