Pancreatic cancer in type 1 and young-onset diabetes: Systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract

We conducted a systematic review of the risk of pancreatic cancer in people with type I and young-onset diabetes. In three cohort and six case-control studies, the relative risk for pancreatic cancer in people with (vs without) diabetes was 2.00 (95% confidence interval 1.37-3.01) based on 39 cases with diabetes. © 2007 Cancer Research.
