Abstract | |||
The present proposed nested case-control (291 cases and 469 matched controls) study within the PLCO Trial is evaluating the insulin secretion, adipocytokines, and inflammation hypotheses with pancreatic cancer risk. There are other pancreas related nested case control or cohort studies (nutritional, molecular and genetic) ongoing and/or planned for PLCO in the coming year. |
