Abstract:
Objective:To explore the characteristics of prevailing factors and their influence on esophageal cancer in Xinjiang. Meth-ods:Patients diagnosed with esophageal cancer from January 2010 to January 2016 were selected from the Xinjiang Medical Universi-ty First Affiliated Hospital and categorized as the patient group. Patients without cancer admitted to the same period were classified as the control group. Case control study and correlation analysis between esophageal cancer and type 2 diabetes were performed. Re-sults:Type 2 diabetes (≥2 years), as a risk factor, is associated with esophageal cancer. The use of insulin (≥2 years) can increase the risk of esophageal cancer. Smoking, drinking, hyperlipidemia, body mass index≥24, and esophageal diverticulum esophageal cancer are also risk factors. Conclusion:The risk factors for esophageal cancer are prevalent among patients with type 2 diabetes patients. In-sulin use is also correlated with the occurrence of esophageal cancer. Further studies must be performed to develop secondary preven-tion for diabetic patients susceptible to esophageal cancer in high-risk subgroups.
