Acute radiation syndrome correlates with an increased risk of developing cancer
The available literature supports the link between significant radiation exposure and an increased long-term risk of developing malignancies.
The retrieved papers include studies showing that radiation exposure (such as therapeutic or chronic environmental exposure) acts as a known carcinogen and increases the risk of secondary malignancies and related health outcomes. Therefore, the claim is supported by the provided evidence.
