Table 4.

Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for pancreatic cancer associated with two profiles of antibody response (clusters 1 and 2).

Cluster* Case / Controls MV OR (95% CI )**
1 Low antibody levels to
commensal oral bacteria
192/229 1.0 (referent)
2 High antibody levels to
commensal oral bacteria
212/187 0.55 (0.36–0.83)

Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were obtained using conditional logistic regression (cases were matched to controls on center, sex, follow-up time, age at blood collection, date and time of blood collection, fasting status and use of exogenous hormones among women) and adjusting for BMI and smoking status.
