Figure 1. Baseline intake of beer, wine and spirits/liquors (g/day) and Hazard Ratio (HR) of pancreatic cancer in men and women.

Figure 1

1 Models for baseline alcohol intake by subtypes were stratified by center and age at recruitment. Systematic adjustment was undertaken for smoking intensity, physical activity level, educational attainment, diabetes status, BMI, height, and baseline energy intake from other alcohol subtypes;

2 pWald for overall significance across categories were performed according to the χ2 distribution with degrees of freedom equal to the number of categories minus one. Trend tests were performed for continuous variable;

3 The category of light drinkers was used as the reference category (0.1-2.9 g/day for beer and wine, and 0.1-1.9 g/day for spirits/liquors);

4 12g of alcohol correspond to about one standard glass of either wine, beer or spirits/liquors.
