Diabetics with both low and high levels of LDL-cholesterol are
at an increased risk of cancer and death.

The association between low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and risk of developing cancer
remains controversial and largely unexplored for people not
receiving statin therapy. To examine this association,
researchers from Canada studied 6107 type 2 diabetics aged 35
years and older with no history of cancer at the start of the
study. Cholesterol levels of the participants were studied over
time.
