    "The study authors note that women with diabetes are especially affected. They appear to be more exposed than men to the development of malign tumors."

    Don't they mean malignant tumours?

    My dear favourite uncle had type one Diabetes from the age of 23 years.

    Sadly he died from Leukaemia when aged 67 years. I don't know if that fits in with this theory.

    I think the Diabetes must put a big additional strain on the body.
