AIM: To provide a quantitative assessment of the association between type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and the risk of colorectal cancer(CRC).METHODS: Systematic review was conducted thorough MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, andISI Web of knowledge databases till 31 st January 2014.This meta-analysis included the cohort studies that illustrated relative risk(RR) or odds ratio estimates with 95%CI for the predictive risk of CRC by T2 DM.Summary relative risks with 95%CI were analyzed by using an effects summary ratio model. Heterogeneity among studies was assessed by the Cochran’s Q and I 2statistics.RESULTS: The meta analysis of 8 finally selected studies showed a positive correlation of T2 DM with the risk of CRC as depicted by effects summary RR of 1.21(95%CI: 1.02-1.42). Diabetic women showed greater risk of developing CRC as their effect summary RR of 1.22(95%CI: 1.01-49) with significant overall Z test at 5% level of significance was higher than the effect summary RR of 1.17(95%CI: 1.00-1.37) of men showing insignificant Z test. The effect summary RR of 1.19 with 95%CI of 1.07-1.33 indicate a positive relationship between DM and increased risk of CRC with significant heterogeneity(I 2 = 92% and P-value <0.05).CONCLUSION: Results from this systematic review and meta-analysis report that diabetic people have an increased risk of CRC as compared to non-diabetics.
