| Core Tip |
We evaluate whether repeatedly elevated γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT) levels on four consecutive exams were associated with an increased incidence of digestive cancers using the population-based cohort data. In total, 3559109 participants were included with a median of 6.8 years of follow-up. Repeatedly elevated GGT levels on four consecutive exams were associated with an increased incidence of digestive cancers in a dose-response manner. This trend was more prominent in men than women and in those with healthy habits (no smoking, no alcohol consumption, and a low body mass index) than those with unhealthy habits. |
