This table shows an overview of available national/multicenter based studies on diabetes mellitus in childhood cancer survivors. The literature search and search flowchart are depicted in Supplementary Table S6 and Supplementary Fig. S2, respectively. The overview of available single-center studies is depicted in Supplementary Table S7. Holmqvist (2014) and Winther (2018) describe the same cohort but with different risk calculations. The study by Meacham (2010) is not included in the table since it reports on the same cohort as Meacham (2009) with similar results and calculations. Age and follow-up time are shown as mean (M) ±SD or (range)/median (Mdn) (range).

Study design: 1 = prospective study, 2 = cross-sectional study, 3 = retrospective study.
