Core Tip	Many epidemiological studies have explored the association of cholesterol with the risk of pancreatic cancer, but the results of these studies are conflicting. We conducted the current meta-analysis to evaluate the effect of dietary cholesterol and serum total cholesterol on the risk of pancreatic cancer. The results suggested that dietary cholesterol may be associated with an increased risk of pancreatic cancer. However, the finding needs to be confirmed further.
