23. Risk Factors for Pancreas Cancer Risk factorAltered risk Smoking2-3 X Caloric intake, physical activity, obesity~2X Chronic pancreatitis2 X Family Hx pancreas ca7X Diabetes2-3X Primary scherosing cholangitis Hereditary pancreatitis60X

24. Smoking—IARC Statement, (2004) “Cancer of the pancreas is causally associated with cigarette smoking. The risk increases with duration of smoking and number of cigarettes smoked daily. The risk remains elevated after allowing for potentially confounding factors such as alcohol consumption. The relative risk decreased with increasing time since quitting smoking”

25. Precursor Lesions for pancreas Cancer LesionMechanism Pancreatic intraepithial Neoplasia Chronic inflammation

26. Prevention and Deterrence of Pancreas Cancer Smoking is the most significant reversible risk factor for pancreas cancer. Estimates indicate that smoking accounts for up to 30% of cases of pancreas cancer. A diet high in energy intake and low in fresh fruits and vegetables increases risk of pancreas cancer. Alcohol consumption does not increase risk of pancreas cancer unless it leads to chronic pancreatitis. Aspirin consumption????
