abstract = {Whether circulating polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)
levels are associated with pancreatic cancer risk is
uncertain. Mendelian randomization (MR) represents a study
design using genetic instruments to better characterize the
relationship between exposure and outcome.We utilized data
from genome-wide association studies within the Pancreatic
Cancer Cohort Consortium and Pancreatic Cancer Case-Control
Consortium, involving approximately 9,269 cases and 12,530
controls of European descent, to evaluate associations
between pancreatic cancer risk and genetically predicted
plasma n-6 PUFA levels. Conventional MR analyses were
performed using individual-level and summary-level
data.Using genetic instruments, we did not find evidence of
associations between genetically predicted plasma n-6 PUFA
levels and pancreatic cancer risk [estimates per one SD
increase in each PUFA-specific weighted genetic score using
summary statistics: linoleic acid odds ratio (OR) = 1.00,
$95\%$ confidence interval (CI) = 0.98-1.02; arachidonic
acid OR = 1.00, $95\%$ CI = 0.99-1.01; and
dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid OR = 0.95, $95\%$ CI =
0.87-1.02]. The OR estimates remained virtually unchanged
after adjustment for covariates, using individual-level data
or summary statistics, or stratification by age and sex.Our
results suggest that variations of genetically determined
plasma n-6 PUFA levels are not associated with pancreatic
cancer risk.These results suggest that modifying n-6 PUFA
levels through food sources or supplementation may not
influence risk of pancreatic cancer.},
