This study aimed to bridge the gap among available literature in order to better define the association between alcohol consumption and incidence of T2DM. ## Methods We performed a secondary analysis using open-access data from a retrospective Japanese cohort of 15,464 participants who underwent regular medical examinations at Murakami Memorial Hospital.
