“…Recent studies have pointed out that insulin resistance in patients with head and neck cancer might be an important prognostic indicator. 22 On the other hand, Rego et al 26 reported that metformin was able to prevent the progression of dysplastic lesions to carcinoma in 3 nondiabetic patients with head and neck lesions. 23,24 In the head and neck area, Park et al 25 found a tendency for dosedependent relationships between fasting serum glucose levels and risk of death.…”

“…Recent studies have pointed out that insulin resistance in patients with head and neck cancer might be an important prognostic indicator. 22 Elevated blood glucose levels in diabetic and nondiabetic subjects before or around the time of diagnosis have been associated to shorter survival times in different types of cancers. 23,24 In the head and neck area, Park et al 25 found a tendency for dosedependent relationships between fasting serum glucose levels and risk of death.…”
