RESUMEN
To study the relationship between the occurrence of pancreatic cancer with diabetes mellitus, other medical conditions and familial history in Chinese population. A case control study comprising 493 histologically confirmed pancreatic cancer patients and 1031 hospital non neoplastic controls matched with age, sex and economical income was conducted. The value of odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) to estimate the relative risk of diabetes mellitus, other medical conditions and familial history were calculated. The results showed that ORs and 95%CIs of diabeties diagnosed 2 years prior to the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, cholelithiasis, chronic pancreatitis, cancer history, pulmonary tuberculosis, Helicobacter pylori infection, family history of cancer and family history of diabetes mellitus were 4 64(2 05～10 49),4 12(2 81～6 04),18 38(6 33～53 35),9 47(4 97～18 06),4 21(2 30～7 72),1 14(0 45～2 89),2 01(1 29～3 14), 0 83(0 15～4 56) respectively. The p values of diabeties and cholelithiasis in logistic regression analysis were less than 0 05. The analysis suggested that diabetes mellitus, cholelithiasis, chronic pancreatitis, cancer history, pulmonary tuberculosis, and family history of cancer were risk factors of pancreatic cancer, whereas diabetes mellitus and cholelithiasis were the independent factors.
RESUMEN
Smoking is presently the only generally accepted risk factor for pancreatic cancer. In recent studies, reproductive history has been associated with pancreatic cancer, but with contradictory results. In order to evaluate a possible association between age of first parturition and the number of births and pancreatic cancer, we conducted a case control study with a hospital background. Association between age of first parturition and the number of births and pancreatic cancer was found, and it remained after adjustment for cigarettes smoking, alcohol consumption, body mass index, cholelithiasis, cholecystectomy, diabetes mellitus, chronic pancreatitis and partial gastrectomy. Young age of first parturition and high reproductive history, such as 3 or more births were risk factors for pancreatic cancer.
RESUMEN
The study was to analyze the correlation between pancreatic cancer and appendectomy, partial gastrectomy, cholecystectomy and tonsillectomy in Chinese population. Case control study was made comprising 493 pancreatic cancer patients confirmed by histology and 1031 hospitalized non neoplastic controls matched with age, sex, residing district, and economical income. The value of odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were calaclated to estimate the relative risk of appendectomy, partial gastrectomy, cholecystectomy and tonsillectomy to the occurrence of pancreatic cancer, and logistic regression was conducted. The results showed that the risk of pancreatic cancer increased in patients who had had appendectomy, partial gastrectomy and cholecystectomy, and all the p values of trend test were
