Highlights: • PC mortality were associated with PM{sub 2.5} (RR=1.16 with an increase of 10ug/m{sup 3}) in China. • The populations aged 65 years or over had the greater effects on this association. • It provides an evidence for the association of PM{sub 2.5} with digestive tract diseases. Previous studies have reported that the development of pancreatic cancer (PC) may be associated with environment pollution. But the relationship between ambient air pollution and PC remains unclear.
