A nationwide study presented at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) annual meeting in Milan, Italy, from Sept. 28 to Oct. 2, reported that people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) continue to face a higher risk of developing cancer. The findings highlight that the disparity in cancer incidence between those with T2D and those without diabetes has widened in recent years.
