15, 2025 (HealthDay News) Smokers have a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes, especially if they are genetically predisposed to the condition, a new study says.People who ever smoked at all have an elevated risk of all four subtypes of type 2 diabetes, and heavy smokers are at even greater risk, researchers reported Saturday at a meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes in Vienna.It is clear that smoking increases the risk of type 2 diabetes whatever the subtype that is, regardless of whether the diabetes is characterized by insulin resistance, lack of insulin, obesity or old age, lead researcher Emmy Keysendal, a doctoral student at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, said in a news release.For the study, researchers analyzed data from 3,325 people with type 2 diabetes and 3,897 healthy folks participating in diabetes studies in Norway and Sweden.People who had ever smoked were more than twice as likely as never-smokers to develop severe insulin-resistant diabetes (SIRD), characterized by an inability to efficiently use insulin to turn blood sugar into energy, results show.Ever-smokers also had a:20% increased risk for severe insulin-dependent diabetes (SIDD), characterized by a lack of insulin.29% increased risk for mild obesity-related diabetes (MOD), associated with obesity.27% increased risk for mild age-related diabetes (MARD), associated with aging.Heavy smoking caused even higher risks: Nearly 2.4 times for SIRD
