The association between alcohol consumption and the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma according to glycemic status in Korea: A nationwide population-based study
Light, moderate, and heavy consumption of alcohol might be a major contributing factor to the development of hepatocellular (liver) cancer.
This research work studied the alcohol intake-hepatocellular (liver) cancer connection hypothesis. Researchers charted alcohol usage against liver cancer diagnosis status in a cohort of more than 34,000 Korean men and women over an 8-year period.
Researchers discovered that light, moderate, and heavy drinking of alcohol resulted in an upsurge in hepatocellular cancer risk. This study emphasizes the role alcohol consumption plays in the development of liver cancer.
