Abstract
Pancreatic exocrine and endocrine dysfunctions often come together in the course of pancreatic diseases as interdependent manifestations of the same organ. However, the mechanisms underlying the bidirectional connection of the exocrine and endocrine pancreas are not fully understood. In this review, we aimed to synthetize the current knowledge regarding the effects of several exocrine pancreatic pathologies on the homeostasis of β-cells, with a special interest in the predisposition toward diabetes mellitus (DM). We focused on the following pancreatic exocrine diseases: chronic pancreatitis, acute pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, pancreatic cancer, pancreatic resections, and autoimmune pancreatitis. We discuss the pathophysiologic mechanisms behind the impact on β-cell function and evolution into DM, as well as the associated risk factors in progression to DM, and we describe the most relevant and statistically significant findings in the literature. An early and correct diagnosis of DM in the setting of pancreatic exocrine disorders is of paramount importance for anticipating the disease's course and its therapeutical needs.

Abstract
Up to 9% of children with acute recurrent pancreatitis (ARP) or chronic pancreatitis have pancreatogenic diabetes mellitus (DM), and this risk likely increases as they age into adulthood. Risk factors for pancreatogenic DM in children vary depending on the clinical cohort but may include pancreatic atrophy, exocrine insufficiency, pancreatic calcifications, obesity/metabolic syndrome features, or autoimmune diseases. Knowledge regarding disease pathology is extrapolated nearly entirely from studies in adults. Insulin deficiency is the primary defect, resulting from islet loss associated with pancreatic fibrosis and cytokine-mediated β-cell dysfunction. Beta cell autoimmunity (type 1 diabetes) should also be considered as markers for this have been identified in a small subset of children with pancreatogenic DM. Hepatic insulin resistance, a deficient pancreatic polypeptide state, and dysfunctional incretin hormone response to a meal are all potential contributors in adults with pancreatogenic DM but their significance in pediatrics is yet unknown. Current guidelines recommend yearly screening for diabetes with fasting glucose and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Insulin in the first-line pharmacologic therapy for treatment of pancreatogenic DM in children. Involvement of a multidisciplinary team including a pediatric endocrinologist, gastroenterologist, and dietitian are important, and nutritional health and exocrine insufficiency must also be addressed for optimal DM management.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is characterized by insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction. Because patients with T2DM have inadequate β-cell mass (BCM) and β-cell dysfunction worsens glycemic control and makes treatment difficult, therapeutic strategies to preserve and restore BCM are needed. In rodent models, obesity increases BCM about 3-fold, but the increase in BCM in humans is limited. Besides, obesity-induced changes in BCM may show racial differences between East Asians and Caucasians. Recently, the developmental origins of health and disease hypothesis, which states that the risk of developing noncommunicable diseases including T2DM is influenced by the fetal environment, has been proposed. It is known in rodents that animals with low birthweight have reduced BCM through epigenetic modifications, making them more susceptible to diabetes in the future. Similarly, in humans, we revealed that individuals born with low birthweight have lower BCM in adulthood. Because β-cell replication is more frequently observed in the 5 years after birth, and β cells are found to be more plastic in that period, a history of childhood obesity increases BCM. BCM in patients with T2DM is reduced by 20% to 65% compared with that in individuals without T2DM. However, since BCM starts to decrease from the stage of borderline diabetes, early intervention is essential for β-cell protection. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on regulatory factors of human BCM in health and diabetes and propose the β-cell–centric concept of diabetes to enhance a more pathophysiology-based treatment approach for T2DM.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In children, chronic pancreatitis is infrequent but may be associated with serious complications, including severe pain that limits activities, exocrine and endocrine pancreatic insufficiency and malnutrition. Investigation into pediatric chronic pancreatitis has transitioned from single center reports to multicenter, protocol-driven studies. As a result, we now have information on much larger numbers of children with chronic pancreatitis, allowing a more reliable understanding of the complications of chronic pancreatitis. RECENT FINDINGS A high percentage of children with chronic pancreatitis use opioids frequently to control pain. About a quarter of children with chronic pancreatitis have exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, and about 6% have pancreatogenic diabetes. Mild malnutrition and low bone density are both common in children with chronic pancreatitis. SUMMARY Large multicenter and single-center observational studies have allowed us to more accurately assess complications of chronic pancreatitis in children. These studies demonstrate the need for examination of therapies for these complications in children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND /Objectives: The pathogenesis of hyperglycemia during acute pancreatitis (AP) remains unknown due to inaccessibility of human tissues and lack of animal models. We aimed to develop an animal model to study the mechanisms of hyperglycemia and impaired glucose tolerance in AP. METHODS We injected ferrets with intraperitoneal cerulein (50 μg/kg, 9 hourly injections) or saline. Blood samples were collected for glucose (0, 4, 8, 12, 24h); TNF-α, IL-6 (6h); amylase, lipase, insulin, glucagon, pancreatic polypeptide (PP), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) (24h). Animals underwent oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) at 24h or 3 months, followed by harvesting pancreas for histopathology and immunostaining. RESULTS Cerulein-injected ferrets exhibited mild pancreatic edema, neutrophil infiltration, and elevations in serum amylase, lipase, TNF-α, IL-6, consistent with AP. Plasma glucose was significantly higher in ferrets with AP at all time points. Plasma glucagon, GLP-1 and PP were significantly higher in cerulein-injected animals, while plasma insulin was significantly lower compared to controls. OGTT and MMTT showed abnormal glycemic responses with higher area under the curve. The hypoglycemic response to insulin injection was completely lost, suggestive of insulin resistance. OGTT showed low plasma insulin; MMTT confirmed low insulin and GIP; abnormal OGTT and MMTT responses returned to normal 3 months after cerulein injection. CONCLUSIONS Acute cerulein injection causes mild acute pancreatitis in ferrets and hyperglycemia related to transient islet cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. The ferret cerulein model may contribute to the understanding of hyperglycemia in acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
Zusammenfassung
Einleitung Pankreasresektionen werden bei schwerwiegenden Pankreaserkrankungen durchgeführt. Bei Komplikationen einer chronischen Pankreatitis, teilweise jedoch auch bei Raumforderungen, kann eine Pankreasteilresektion sinnvoll sein. Eine totale Pankreatektomie führt zum absoluten Insulinmangel und der Notwendigkeit einer Insulintherapie. Bei Teilresektionen (partielle Pankreatektomie) werden weniger gravierende Konsequenzen für den Glukosemetabolismus erwartet. Es ist das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit, die Insulinregime nach Pankreatektomie mit denen anderer Diabetesformen zu vergleichen.
Material und Methodik Es wurden Patientencharakteristika und Details der postoperativen Insulintherapie von pankreasoperierten Patienten einer spezialisierten Universitätsklinik für Viszeralchirurgie ausgewertet. Diese Daten wurden mit Kohorten nicht operierter Patienten mit Typ-1-Diabetes (T1DM; absoluter Insulinmangel) bzw. Typ-2-Diabetes (T2DM; Insulinresistenz und relativer Insulinmangel), jeweils unter Insulintherapie, verglichen. Ergänzt wurde diese Datenanalyse durch eine Literaturrecherche zu den Stichworten „pancreatogenic diabetes“, „type 3c diabetes“ und „pancreatectomy diabetes“.
Ergebnisse Daten von 32 (68,8 % Frauenanteil) bzw. 41 (43,9 % Frauenanteil) Patienten nach totaler bzw. partieller Pankreatektomie wurden analysiert. Vor der totalen Pankreatektomie hatten 56,3 % der Patienten einen Diabetes mellitus, postoperativ bestand bei allen Patienten eine Insulinpflichtigkeit. Dabei waren die Insulindosierungen im Vergleich mit Patienten mit T1DM (unter intensivierter Insulintherapie) signifikant niedriger (p < 0,0001). Die Dosierungen von Basal- (48,6 % weniger) und Mahlzeiteninsulin (38,1 % weniger) waren gleichermaßen betroffen. Eine partielle Pankreatektomie führte deutlich seltener zu einem Diabetes mellitus, und eine Insulintherapie war nur bei 26,8 % der Patienten erforderlich.
Diskussion Der basale und prandiale Insulinbedarf nach Pankreatektomie ist niedriger als bei einem T1DM und einem T2DM. Dies sollte bei der Blutzuckereinstellung nach Pankreatektomie berücksichtigt werden.

Abstract
ABSTRACT This position paper summarizes the current understanding of the medical management of chronic pancreatitis (CP) in children in light of the existing medical literature, incorporating recent advances in understanding of nutrition, pain, lifestyle considerations, and sequelae of CP. This article complements and is intended to integrate with parallel position papers on endoscopic and surgical aspects of CP in children. Concepts and controversies related to pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT), the use of antioxidants and other CP medical therapies are also reviewed. Highlights include inclusion of tools for medical decision-making for PERT, CP-related diabetes, and multimodal pain management (including an analgesia ladder). Gaps in our understanding of CP in children and avenues for further investigations are also reviewed.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Endocrine insufficiency is a common and frequent complication of chronic pancreatitis. Identifying the role of pancreatic damage in the development of diabetes is important for early identification and appropriate management. METHODS All consecutive CP patients between January 2019 and May 2020 were retrospectively studied. Relevant statistical tests were performed. A two sided p value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Total 587 chronic pancreatitis patients were included of which 118 (20.1%) patients developed diabetes with duration of 12 (IQR 4-48) months. Older age (OR 1.079; 95% CI 1.045-1.113; p < 0.001), presence of pancreatic parenchymal (OR 2.284; 95% CI 1.036-5.038; p = 0.041) and ductal (OR 2.351; 95% CI 1.062-5.207; p = 0.035) calcifications, exocrine insufficiency (OR 6.287; 95% CI 2.258-17.504; p < 0.001), and pancreatic duct stricture (OR 3.358; 95% CI 1.138-9.912; p = 0.028) were independently associated with development of diabetes mellitus in chronic pancreatitis patients. On cox-regression analysis, smoking (HR 2.370; 95% CI 1.290-4.354; p = 0.005) and pancreatic ductal calcification (HR 2.033; 95% CI 1.286-3.212; p = 0.002) were independently associated with earlier onset of diabetes mellitus in patients with chronic pancreatitis. CONCLUSION Pancreatic calcification, pancreatic duct stricture and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency are associated with development of diabetes mellitus in chronic pancreatitis indicating disease progression. Smoking is the modifiable risk factors associated with early onset of diabetes mellitus in CP patients.

Abstract
Anatomical proximity and functional correlations between the exocrine and endocrine pancreas warrant reciprocal effects between the two parts. Inflammatory diseases of the exocrine pancreas, such as acute or chronic pancreatitis, or the presence of cystic fibrosis disrupt endocrine function, resulting in diabetes of the exocrine pancreas. Although novel mechanisms are being increasingly identified, the intra- and intercellular pathways regulating exocrine-endocrine interactions are still not fully understood, making the development of new and more effective therapies difficult. Therefore, this review sought to accumulate current knowledge regarding the pathogenesis of diabetes in acute and chronic pancreatitis, as well as cystic fibrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amyloid deposits are a typical finding in pancreatic islets from patients with type 2 diabetes. Whether this is linked to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes is currently unknown. Therefore, we compared the occurrence of islet amyloid in patients with type 2 diabetes, diabetes secondary to pancreatic disorders, and nondiabetic individuals. PATIENTS AND METHODS Pancreatic tissue from 15 nondiabetic patients, 22 patients with type 2 diabetes, and 11 patients with diabetes due to exocrine pancreatic disorders (chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic carcinoma) were stained for insulin, amyloid, and apoptosis. β-cell area, amyloid deposits, and β-cell apoptosis were quantified by morphometric analysis. RESULTS The proportion of islets containing amyloid deposits was significantly higher in both type 2 diabetes and diabetes due to exocrine pancreatic disorders than in healthy subjects. Islets with both amyloid and apoptosis were observed more frequently in type 2 diabetes and significantly more so in diabetes due to exocrine pancreatic disorders. In both diabetic groups, apoptotic ß-cells were found significantly more frequently in islets with more prominent amyloid deposits. CONCLUSIONS The occurrence of amyloid deposits in both type 2 diabetes and diabetes secondary to exocrine pancreatic disorders suggests that islet amyloid formation is a common feature of diabetes mellitus of different etiologies and may be associated with a loss of pancreatic ß-cells.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Little data exist describing the change over time in islet function and glycemic control in patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP). METHODS In 325 CP patients who underwent 2 mixed meal tolerance tests and/or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels, we estimated the rate of change in metabolic measures per 6 months and assessed the association between potential risk factors for diabetes and rate of change using multivariate regression models. RESULTS Per 6-month time, HbA1c increased by 0.062% with a standard error of 0.029% (P = 0.037) and the ratio (area under the curve (AUC) C-peptide to AUC glucose from mixed meal tolerance testing) decreased by 0.0028 with a standard error of 0.0011 (P = 0.014). We observed more rapid decline in smokers (AUC C-peptide, P = 0.043) and patients with surgical drainage (AUC glucose, P = 0.001; ratio, P = 0.03) or with calcific pancreatitis (HbA1c, P = 0.003). In multivariate models, AUC C-peptide and ratio declined at a greater rate in smokers and HbA1c in those with pancreatic calcifications (both P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS We observed a measurable decline in β-cell function and glycemic control in patients with CP. Patients with a history of tobacco smoking, surgical drainage, or pancreatic calcification may be at highest risk.

Stata 14.0 was utilized for processing and analysis, and adjusted odds ratios (aORs) were applied. Our study included 113898 T2DM patients and 284131 controls from nine studies and 17548 AP patients and 108108 controls from four studies. The pooled aORs of SSRIs on the risk of T2DM and AP were 1.38 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.24–1.54) and 1.26 (95% CI = 1.13–1.40), respectively. Study design, quality, ethnicity, follow-up, and sample size of patients were the resources of heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis showed that 2 weeks is a high-risk time for AP after SSRIs use, with 1.48-fold-times as much after it. This meta-analysis provides evidence of a significant positive association between SSRIs use and risks of T2DM or AP, and duration of 2 weeks of SSRIs use has higher risk of AP, which should be paid much attention to.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a common complication of chronic pancreatitis (CP). Past studies for DM risk factors in CP have been limited to single centers or highly focused on a single etiology such as alcoholic or hereditary disease. We studied risk factors for DM in a large population of patients with CP of all etiologies enrolled in the North American Pancreatitis 2 studies. METHODS Participants (1,171) with CP (n=383 with DM, n=788 without DM) were enrolled prospectively from 26 participating centers. Questionnaires were completed by patients and physicians in a cross-sectional assessment. Patient demographics and disease characteristics were compared for CP with DM vs. without DM. Logistic regression was performed to assess the variables associated with DM diagnosis in a multivariable model. RESULTS Diabetics were more likely to be black (P=0.02), overweight, or obese (P<0.001), and with a family history of DM (P=0.0005). CP patients with DM were more likely to have pancreatic calcifications (63% vs. 54%, P=0.002), atrophy (44% vs. 32%, P<0.0001), and prior pancreas surgery (26.9% vs. 16.9%, P<0.0001). In multivariate logistic regression modeling, the strongest risk factors for DM were obesity (odds ratio (OR) 2.8, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.9, 4.2) and exocrine insufficiency (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.8, 3.2). CONCLUSIONS In this large multicenter cohort of patients with CP, exocrine insufficiency, calcifications, and pancreas surgery conveyed higher odds of having DM. However, the traditional 'type 2 DM' risk factors of obesity and family history were similarly important in conveying risk for DM.

Abstract
CONTEXT It has been suggested that beta cell loss in type 2 diabetes (T2D) may be due to beta cell degranulation and/or altered cell identity. While shown to have a minor role in obese T2D, this has not been evaluated in lean T2D. OBJECTIVE To establish the contribution of altered beta cell identity in lean T2D and, using a rodent model of lean T2D, whether changes in beta cell identity precede hyperglycemia. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS We investigated the frequency of chromogranin A positive hormone negative (CPHN) and polyhormonal endocrine cells in pancreas from 10 lean nondiabetic and 10 lean T2D subjects and in pancreas from wild-type and human IAPP transgenic rats at the prediabetic and diabetic stages. RESULTS CPHN cells and polyhormonal-expressing cells were comparably increased in lean T2D and human IAPP transgenic rats, in the latter both before and at onset of diabetes. However, the extent of these cells could only account for approximately 2% of beta cell loss. CONCLUSION Degranulation and altered identity play at most a minor role in the beta cell deficit in lean T2D. Because the increase in CPHN and polyhormonal cells precede diabetes onset, these changes are likely a response to stress rather than hyperglycemia, and may reflect attempted regeneration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Diabetes mellitus is a frequent consequence of chronic pancreatitis (CP). Little is known about pancreatic endocrine function before the development of diabetes mellitus in CP, particularly in females, or those without calcific and/or alcoholic pancreatitis. METHODS Twenty-five nondiabetic adult patients with CP (19 female; mean [SE] age, 34.2 [2.4] years) were compared with 25 healthy controls matched for age, sex, and body mass index. Subjects underwent frequent sample intravenous glucose tolerance testing (FSIVGTT) and mixed meal tolerance testing (MMTT). RESULTS Mean (SE) fasting glucose was higher in patients with CP (89.5 [2.3] mg/dL) than in controls (84.4 [1.2] mg/dL, P = 0.04). On MMTT, patients with CP had a higher area under the curve (AUC) glucose and AUC glucagon compared with controls (P ≤ 0.01). The AUC C-peptide was equivalent (P = 0.6) but stimulated C-peptide at 30 minutes was lower in patients with CP (P = 0.04). Mean insulin sensitivity index calculated from the FSIVGTT was lower in CP group, indicating reduced insulin sensitivity (P ≤ 0.01). Disposition index (insulin secretion adjusted for insulin sensitivity on FSIVGTT) was lower in patients with CP (P = 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Patients with CP had higher fasting and MMTT glucose levels, without a compensatory increase in insulin secretion suggesting subtle early islet dysfunction. Our cohort had relative hyperglucagonemia and was less insulin sensitive than controls.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW A relevant number of patients with pancreatic disorders suffer from secondary diabetes. Recent data have shed light on the link between pancreatic damage and subsequent impairments in glucose homeostasis. Furthermore, epidemiological studies provided insights into the relationship between diabetes and the risk of pancreatic carcinoma or pancreatitis. Pancreaticogenic diabetes requires a tailored therapeutic approach taking into account the individual properties of the available glucose-lowering drugs. RECENT FINDINGS We review the available literature concerning diabetes in patients with acute or chronic pancreatitis or pancreatic carcinoma. The relationship between the pancreatic damage and alterations in insulin and glucose homeostasis is summarized as well as the effect of diabetes mellitus on the risk of pancreatic cancer and pancreatitis. Caveats in the treatment of pancreaticogenic diabetes with currently available drugs are being discussed. SUMMARY Patients with pancreatic diseases should be screened for diabetes by means of an oral glucose tolerance test. There is a close inverse relationship between pancreatic β-cell loss and postchallenge hyperglycemia. The risk of hypoglycemia may be increased in patients with pancreaticogenic diabetes. Newly diagnosed diabetes may be a harbinger of pancreatic cancer. There is increasing evidence suggesting an increased risk for (pancreatic) cancer and pancreatitis in patients with diabetes mellitus. Further studies on the ideal glucose-lowering treatment of patients with pancreaticogenic diabetes will be required.

Abstract
We analyzed the pretransplant continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data of 45 patients that underwent total pancreatectomy followed by autologous islet transplantation (AIT) at the University of Arizona Medical Center. Traditional and novel metrics of CGM time series were correlated to the total islet count (TIC), islet equivalents (IEQs), and weight-normalized IEQs (IEQ/kg). In a subset cohort (n = 26) we analyzed the relationship among the infused number of islets, the CGM indicators, and the first recorded insulin requirement after the procedure. We conclude that receiving a high islet yield is sufficient yet not necessary to achieve low or null insulin requirements within the first 50 days after surgery. Furthermore, CGM inertia and CGM length of curve (2 novel CGM indicators) are shown to be correlated to islet yield, and the CGMs normalized area (Ao) and time ratio above hyperglycemic level (To) are strongly correlated to insulin requirement. A screening test based on To is shown to have 100% sensitivity and 88% specificity discriminating insulin independence upon discharge.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Diabetes frequently develops in patients with pancreatic disorders. We aimed to determine the lower threshold of beta cell area for diabetes manifestation as well as the impact of insulin sensitivity on glucose homoeostasis in patients with pancreatic diabetes. METHODS Eighty-two patients undergoing pancreatic surgery underwent pre-operative oral glucose challenge. Fractional pancreatic beta cell area was determined, and indices of insulin sensitivity and beta cell function were calculated. RESULTS HbA1c and glucose levels were similar in patients with high and intermediate beta cell area, but were significantly higher in those with the lowest beta cell area (p < 0.0001). Insulin secretion was reduced only in patients with the lowest beta cell area (p < 0.001). The relative beta cell deficits at the onset of diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance were 64% and 21%, respectively, based on 2 h glucose levels. Deteriorating insulin sensitivity was associated with a small increase in the incidence of diabetes. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION In conclusion, pancreatic diabetes probably develops after a reduction in beta cell area of ~65%. Post-challenge glucose excursions are much more closely related to pancreatic beta cell area than to fasting glycaemia, thereby underlining the usefulness of the OGTT in patients with pancreatic disorders.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There are 1.6 billion adults worldwide who are overweight, with body mass indices (BMI) between 25 and 30, while more than 400 million are obese (BMI >30). Obesity predicts the incidence of and poor outcomes from pancreatic cancer. Obesity has also been linked to surgical complications in pancreatectomy, including increased length of hospital stay, surgical infections, blood loss, and decreased survival. However, BMI's impact on many complications following pancreatectomy remains controversial. METHODS We performed a MEDLINE search of all combinations of "BMI" with "pancreatectomy," "pancreatoduodenectomy," or "pancreaticoduodenectomy." From included studies, we created pooled and weighted estimates for quantitative and qualitative outcomes. We used the PRISMA criteria to ensure this project's validity. RESULTS Our primary cohort included 2,736 patients with BMI <30, 1,682 with BMI >25, and 546 with BMI between 25 and 30. Most outcomes showed no definitive differences across BMIs. Pancreatic fistula (PF) rates ranged from 4.7% to 31.0%, and four studies found multivariate association between BMI and PF (range odds ratio 1.6-4.2). Pooled analyses of PF by BMI showed significant association (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION BMI increases the operative complexity of pancreatectomy. However, with aggressive peri- and post-operative care, increases in BMI-associated morbidity and mortality may be mitigated.

Abstract
AIMS Pancreatic β-cell function indexes have been suggested using the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Here, we investigated whether β-cell function index from the OGTT reflects pancreatic β-cell area in Korean patients. METHODS The study consisted of 45 patients who underwent pancreatectomies. Before operation, a 75-g OGTT was performed. Immunohistochemical staining was performed, and indexes of β-cell function from the OGTT data were compared with the pancreatic β-cell area. RESULTS The β-cell area of the pancreas was 1.07 ± 0.33% in the normal glucose tolerance group, 1.71 ± 0.85% in the pre-diabetes group (impaired glucose tolerance and impaired fasting glucose), and 1.08 ± 0.57% in the diabetes group. The β-cell area of the pre-diabetes group was significantly higher than that of the diabetes group. Pancreatic β-cell area showed a significant correlation with a homeostasis model assessment of β-cell function (r=0.358, P=0.016), disposition index (r=0.336, P=0.024), fasting glucose (r=-0.359, P=0.015), and the C-peptide/glucose 30 min ratio (r=0.319, P=0.035). CONCLUSIONS Some parameters of β-cell function from the OGTT showed a significant relationship with the β-cell area of pancreas.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study was to determine the occurrence and the risk factors of diabetes mellitus (DM) in Chinese patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP), with particular emphasis on those with endoscopic or surgical therapy for CP. METHODS Four hundred forty-five contacted CP patients in our hospital between January 1, 1997, and July 31, 2007, were followed up. Risk factors for DM were determined in a multivariate analysis after exclusion of 58 patients. RESULTS The cumulative rate of DM was 51.5% (SD, 8%) at 20 years after the onset of CP and 27.8% (SD, 6%) at 10 years after endotherapy or surgery, without significant difference between the 2 therapies (P = 0.243). The age at the onset of CP (hazard ratio, 1.032; 95% confidential interval, 1.012-1.052), smoking (2.859, 1.448-5.645), chronic pain (0.412, 0.180-0.945), and pancreatic calcifications (2.326, 1.203-4.496) were identified as independent risk factors for developing DM in the patients before any invasive therapy. Smoking (2.203, 1.153-4.209) and distal pancreatectomy (5.412, 2.506-11.690) were the independent risk factors for DM development in patients after invasive therapy. CONCLUSIONS The risk of DM seems to be mainly caused by progression of CP because it increased with older age, absence of chronic pain, and pancreatic calcifications, whereas this risk is influenced by smoking and distal pancreatectomy.
