Summary: | Inflammation plays a central role in pancreatic cancer etiology and can be modulated by diet. We aimed to examine the association between the inflammatory potential of diet, assessed with the Dietary Inflammatory Index (DII®), and pancreatic cancer risk in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial prospective cohort. Our study included 101,449 participants aged 52–78 years at baseline who completed both baseline questionnaire and a diet history questionnaire. Energy‐adjusted DII (E‐DII) scores were computed based on food and supplement intake. Cox proportional hazards models and time dependent Cox models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) with participants in the lowest E‐DII quintile (most anti‐inflammatory scores) as referent. After a median 8.5 years of follow‐up, 328 pancreatic cancer cases were identified. E‐DII scores were not associated with pancreatic cancer risk in the multivariable model (HRQ5vsQ1 = 0.94; 95% CI = 0.66–1.35; p‐trend = 0.43). Time significantly modified the association (p‐interaction = 0.01). During follow up |
