      abstract     = {Elevated body mass index (BMI) is linked to increased
                      pancreatic cancer (PC) risk. Cancer-associated weight loss
                      can occur years before the malignancy is diagnosed. This
                      might have led to underestimation of the BMI-PC association.
                      However, it is unknown if and to what extent this issue has
                      been considered in previous epidemiological studies. We
                      searched two databases through February 19, 2024 for
                      systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and pooled analyses
                      examining the BMI-PC association. We extracted information
                      on study design with a special focus on the article's
                      examination of prediagnostic weight loss as a potential
                      source of bias, as well as how included cohort studies
                      addressed this concern. Thirteen review articles,
                      meta-analyses, and pooled analyses were identified. Only
                      five (four pooled analyses, one systematic review)
                      considered prediagnostic weight loss in their analyses.
                      Twenty-four of 32 identified cohort studies reported having
                      excluded initial years of follow-up. However, only 13
                      studies reported results after such exclusions, and effect
                      estimates generally increased with longer periods of
                      exclusion. We conclude that the association of overweight
                      and obesity with PC risk is likely larger than suggested by
                      published epidemiological evidence. Future studies should
                      pay careful attention to avoid or minimize potential bias
                      resulting from prediagnostic weight loss.},
