>Large epidemiological studies have shown the link between obesity and pancreatic cancer. A large population-based case-control study of pancreatic cancer demonstrated that obesity was associated with a statistically significant 50–60% increased risk of pancreatic cancer.

In mice.

If something causes cancer in mice, the curent consensus is that it is deemed unsafe for humans.

Not really. Mice are naturally genetically pre-disposed to cancer.

So in general, if something _doesn't_ cause cancer in mice, then it's probably safe for humans. The reverse is not necessarily true.

Also, GLP-1 was associated with thyroid, not pancreatic cancer.

Did the drug help pancreatic cancer?

Were they humanized mice or not?

This is a good example of a thought-terminating cliche.

There used to be a Twitter bot that replied "in mice" to all breathless tweets reporting on various studies.

nice, learned something new today, people use this so often
