“…The reason for the incidence of LUAD as the most common histological subtype in non-smokers may be the gene mutations observed more often in non-smokers with lung cancer. These mutations drive the development of this histological subtype [ 24 , 31 ], as well as the increased occurrence and intensity of predisposing factors to the development of adenocarcinoma in this group of patients, such as passive smoking [ 32 , 33 ] and obesity, which were more often observed in the group of non-smokers with LUAD compared to smokers, although the significant impact of the considered factors on the development of adenocarcinoma remains ambiguous [ 34 , 35 , 36 ]. Obtained results differ in the incidence rates of adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma within the study groups of non-smokers and smokers, which is probably due to the differences in group sizes and ethnic races between the other studies, as well as other histological cancer subtypes included in the studies [ 21 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 ].…”

“…Moreover, we could not determine whether the association was consistent across pathological types of lung cancer. Additionally, despite the fact that all selected studies utilized multivariate regression analysis, residual confounding factors could not be excluded, such as the potential influences of dietary 50 and other lifestyle factors 51 that are related to the risk of lung cancer. Lastly, because this meta‐analysis included observational studies, it was not possible to establish a causal relationship between prediabetes and lung cancer on the basis of these findings.…”

“…Future studies are warranted in this regard. Furthermore, it should be noted that although all the studies chosen for analysis employed multivariate regression analysis, the presence of residual confounding factors, including the potential impact of dietary [43] and other lifestyle factors [44] associated with lung cancer risk, could not be entirely eliminated. Moreover, the confounding factors adjusted in the original studies were different among the included studies, which may also affect the results of the meta-analysis.…”
