Fasting plasma glucose levels are associated with all-cause and cancer mortality: A population-based retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT: Despite a growing body of research indicating a link between fasting glucose levels and mortality, the relationship between fasting glucose and all-cause and cancer mortality remains inconsistent. In this study, we used Cox regression and restricted cubic spline models to analyze the association and dose-response relationship between fasting plasma glucose levels and all-cause and cancer mortality in a retrospective cohort based on data from the 2015 health check-ups of residents in Quzhou City. After a mean follow-up of 5.31 years for 148,755 study participants, 10,345 deaths occurred, with an all-cause mortality density of 131.09/10,000 person-years, of which 2,845 were cancer deaths, with a cancer mortality density of 36.05/10,000 person-years. There was a "J" shaped dose-response relat
