the claim

High blood pressure causes type 2 diabetes.

the verdict
CONTESTED PARTIAL
Recorded sources
2 sources for · 1 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that high blood pressure causes type 2 diabetes?

Partly. Two cohort studies report that high blood pressure predicts or is associated with a higher risk of later type 2 diabetes, but they establish association rather than causation and cover only specific male populations. One review describes hypertension and type 2 diabetes as commonly coexisting conditions rather than one causing the other.
