作为调查路易斯安那州一个教区白人男性高胰腺癌死亡率的初步步骤，我们检查了1960-75年发生在该地区的876对死亡证明。胰腺癌死亡记录按年龄、种族、性别、死亡年份和居住教区与对照组匹配。炼油和造纸行业工人的赔率比增加了约两倍，炼油厂和食品加工厂附近的居民的赔率略有上升。尽管死亡证明上可获得的居住和职业信息有限，但这项研究表明，环境因素可以通过路易斯安那州的一项病例对照访谈研究进一步调查。
As a preliminary step in the investigation of high pancreas-cancer mortality among White males in a cluster of Louisiana parishes, we examined 876 pairs of certificates of death which occurred in this area during 1960--75. The pancreas-cancer death records were matched to controls by age, race, sex, year of death, and parish of residence. The odds ratios were increased about two-fold for workers in the oil refining and paper manufacturing industries, and slight elevations were seen among residents near refineries and food processing plants. Despite the limited residential and occupational information available on death certificates, this study suggests leads to environmental factors that can be further investigated by a case-control interview study in Louisiana.
