Yip WK, Wu B, Ye BH, Chen ML, Wu ZY, Ji CY. Assessment of triglyceride clearance of haemoperfusion from three cases of hypertriglyceridaemia-induced acute pancreatitis: a case series. J Int Med Res 2024; 52:3000605241252607. [PMID: 38749909 PMCID: PMC11107382 DOI: 10.1177/03000605241252607] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Rapid reduction of plasma triglycerides (TG) is believed to improve the outcome of pancreatitis in the context of hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG)-induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP). Previous studies have suggested that haemoperfusion (HP) with the Jafron cartridge series could be effective for reducing TG concentrations in patients with HTG-AP. However, the clearance capacity (CC) for TG removal has not been reported. This case series reports on data from three patients with HTG-AP who underwent HP with HA230 or HA330 cartridges. Blood samples were collected from both before and after the cartridge circuit every 30 min and the CC was calculated. Twelve pairs of blood samples were collected for each type of HP cartridge. The mean ± SD CC of the HA230 cartridge for TG removal in this case series was 0.009781 ± 1.117235 ml/min (95% confidence interval [CI], -0.7000762, 0.7196384 ml). The mean ± SD CC of the HA330 cartridge for TG removal in this case series was 0.344914 ± 1.412183 ml/min (95% CI, -0.5523448, 1.2421721 ml). Based on the findings of this small case series, special caution is advised when considering the use of the HA230 and HA330 cartridges for reducing blood TG concentration pending further conclusive evidence from larger studies.

Lipids Health Dis 2023; 22:208. [PMID: 38031159 PMCID: PMC10685498 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-023-01968-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/03/2023] [Accepted: 11/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) is characterized by a violent cytokine storm-driven inflammation and is associated with a predisposition to severe disease. The treatment strategy for HTG-AP consists mainly of conventional symptomatic and lipid-lowering treatments. For early-stage HTG-AP, blood purification (BP) can rapidly and effectively reduce serum triglyceride and inflammatory cytokine levels, block the development of systemic inflammatory response syndrome, and improve patient outcomes. Currently, the primary modalities for BP in patients with HTG-AP include plasma exchange, hemoperfusion, and hemofiltration. When using BP to treat patients with HTG-AP, a comprehensive analysis incorporating the elevated lipid levels and severity of the patient's condition contributes to the selection of different treatment modes. Moreover, the timing of the treatment is also imperative. Early intervention is associated with a better prognosis for patients with HTG-AP requiring lipid-lowering treatment.

Abstract
With the improvement of the living standard, hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) has become the second major cause of acute pancreatitis (AP) in China. Hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) has its own unique characteristics. First, the elevation of blood amylase and lipase levels is not significant. Second, the severity of the disease positively correlates with blood triglyceride (TG) level. The goal of treatment of HTG-AP is to lower blood lipids rapidly. Common lipid-lowering methods include dietary modification, lipid-lowering drugs, low-molecular heparin combined with insulin, blood purification, and combined Chinese and Western medicine. This article reviews the recent advances on lipid-lowering approaches used in HTG-AP patients.

Abstract
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is one of the most common clinical dyslipidemia. Nevertheless, stroke and acute pancreatitis co-occurrence due to hypertriglyceridemia are extremely rare. We present a case of hypertriglyceridemia-associated stroke and pancreatitis in a 39-year-old woman. The patient's laboratory tests reported high triglyceride concentrations beyond the instrument's detection range, and radiological examination showed typical signs of cerebral infarction and acute pancreatitis. The patient received combined blood purification therapy, intravenous thrombolysis with urokinase, and conservative treatment of pancreatitis. We discuss the clinical features, pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of hypertriglyceridemic stroke and pancreatitis combined with the relevant literature. We reviewed the mechanisms by which triglycerides contribute to atherosclerosis and acute pancreatitis. We point out the superiority of combined blood purification therapy and caution physicians about the effects of prescribed drugs on blood lipids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute pancreatitis caused by hyperlipidemia is a severe life-threatening condition. Therefore, it is urgent to develop new therapeutic methods to treat this disease. METHODS Cell viability was determined by the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Western blotting (WB) was used to detect the expression levels of apoptotic and endoribonuclease inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α)/X-box binding protein 1 (XBP-1) pathway-associated proteins. The induction of cell apoptosis was determined using flow cytometry. The expression levels of the oxidative stress indicators were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS WB analysis and the CCK-8 assay demonstrated that trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) decreased cell viability and facilitated apoptosis of MPC-83 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, the induction of oxidative stress was assessed by evaluating the levels of specific markers, including hydrogen peroxide, reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide, and superoxide dismutase. The levels of the aforementioned markers were increased in the TMAO-treated group. Subsequently, the IRE1α/XBP-1 pathway-associated proteins were analyzed by WB analysis and the data demonstrated that the regulatory effects of TMAO on MPC-83 cells were meditated by the IRE1α/XBP-1 signaling pathway. Subsequently, rescue experiments were performed to further assess the effects of TMAO. CONCLUSION The present study provides evidence on the application of TMAO as a potential diagnostic and therapeutic strategy for the therapeutic intervention of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
With the continuous change of dietary structure and other factors, the incidence of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) has increased year by year. In particular, HLAP is different from other types of acute pancreatitis in its mechanism, so its clinical diagnosis and treatment have its own particularity. In this paper, we review the progress in the research of HLAP.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the changes of miR-155 expression in the serum of uremic patients before and after treatment and analyze the risk factors of efficacy. A total of 116 uremic patients admitted to the People's Hospital of Chengyang (Qingdao, China) were enrolled in the study as the uremia group, and were treated by hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion, and 127 healthy subjects who underwent health examination during the same period were selected as the normal group. Reverse transcription quantitative PCR was used to detect the serum miR-155 levels of all the subjects in the two groups before treatment and those of uremia patients after treatment. The changes of clinically related indicators and inflammatory factors in uremic patients before and after treatment and their correlation with miR-155 were investigated. The risk factors affecting the efficacy of treatment were analyzed. Serum miR-155 levels in the uremia group were higher than those in the normal group (P<0.001); the miR-155 level in patients after treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment (P<0.001), and it was positively correlated with efficacy (r=0.6873, P<0.05). The serum miR-155 level in the invalid group was higher than that in the effective group, and the sensitivity and specificity of miR-155 for predicting the efficacy before treatment were 64.71 and 87.88%, respectively. After treatment, the sensitivity and specificity of miR-155 for evaluating the efficacy were 76.47 and 88.89%, respectively. Clinically related indicators and inflammatory factor levels in uremic patients decreased significantly after treatment, and the expression levels before and after treatment were significantly correlated with miR-155. Clinically related indicators, inflammatory factors and miR-155 were all risk factors affecting efficacy. The expression level of miR-155 in serum was significantly upregulated. Findings of this study suggest that monitoring miR-155 may reflect the efficacy and inflammatory state effectively.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to investigate the expression of microRNA (miRNA)-372 in the serum of patients with hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HTGAP), and its clinical significance. Patients with a serum lipid concentration ≥11.3 or 5.65-11.3 mmol/l with chylous serum were included in group A (n=40). The remaining patients did not have HTGAP and were included in group B (B). A further 25 patients with hyperlipidemia, but not AP (group C), and 30 healthy volunteers (group D) were recruited as controls. The level of miR-372 in the serum of group A (4.76±2.60) was significantly increased compared with groups B (0.98±0.80), C (0.85±0.62) and D (0.76±0.44); however, there was no significant difference in the expression of miR-372 between groups B, C and D. The expression level of miR-372 was significantly increased in the severe HTGAP group (6.45±2.20) compared with the mild HTGAP group (3.08±1.74). Further experiments suggested that the expression level of miR-372 was positively correlated with the level of triacylglycerol (r=0.666; P<0.001) but not with the level of amylase (r=-0.145; P>0.05). ROC analysis indicated that the combined use of miR-372 expression levels and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scoring improved the diagnostic value for HTGAP. In summary, the expression of miR-372 in HTGAP was significantly upregulated and increased with the severity of the disease. The results of the present study may provide a novel strategy for the diagnosis and severity assessment of HTGAP in the clinic.

Abstract
Questions regarding the application of extracorporeal detoxification to patients with severe acute pancreatitis have been considered. Hemodialysis, the historically first method of extracorporeal detoxification for such patients, has been also described in the review. Appropriateness of using renal replacement therapy methods and among them continued renal replacement therapy has been shown. Hemofiltration and hemodiafiltration technologies are described in detail including different modes of their application and the possibility of using various types of filters. Available data on hemofiltration for patients with severe acute pancreatitis have been analyzed. Great attention is paid to the unsolved aspects of hemofiltration in severe acute pancreatitis such as determining renal and extrarenal indices; time of starting hemofiltration; selection of volume replacement modes and a buffer system; procedure duration; anticoagulation measures, defining criteria to assess the adequacy of hemofiltration, state severity, and organ dysfunction degree. Further multicenter investigations are necessary to be able to assess the efficacy of the hemofiltration procedures on the basis of the thoroughly worked out and pathogenically grounded protocol using adequate control methods taking into consideration endogenic intoxication phases and intensity of the multiple organ failure syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The level of hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG) at which the risk of acute pancreatitis (AP) increases and the impact of HTG on AP attributable to other aetiologies remains unclear. METHODS We compared clinical outcomes of patients admitted within 48 h of the onset of abdominal pain from a first episode of AP and admission serum triglyceride levels of either <5.65 mmol/l (<500 mg/dl) or ≥5.65 to <11.3 mmol/l (moderate HTG) or ≥11.3 mmol/l (≥1000 mg/dl, severe HTG). RESULTS Among a cohort of 1,233 patients with AP there were significant progressive increases in all major deleterious clinical outcomes including mortality (all Ptrend < 0.05) that were directly dependent on admission triglyceride levels. Outcomes were improved by earlier presentation (<24 h compared to 24-48 h from abdominal pain onset). Patients with severe HTG and a concomitant aetiology (n = 68) had significantly more persistent organ failure, pancreatic necrosis and longer hospital stays (P < 0.05) than those with severe HTG alone (n = 206). CONCLUSIONS There appears to be an association between HTG grade and the severity of AP. Severe HTG significantly increased the severity of AP, over AP attributable to other aetiologies. Moderate as well as severe HTG can be used as a criterion for the diagnosis of HTG-associated AP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is characterized by persistent organ failure. This research aimed to evaluate the effect of hemodialysis combined with hemoperfusion on SAP. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-seven patients who were treated with hemoperfusion combined with hemodialysis were included in group O, and 31 patients treated with conventional therapy and hemoperfusion were included as control (group C). Leukocyte count, neutrophil percentage, amylase (AMY), blood urine nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), and total bilirubin (TBIL) were noted. The time when symptoms disappeared as well as complications after treatment was recorded. RESULTS Leukocyte count, neutrophil percentage, AMY, BUN, Cr, and TBIL in two groups were remarkably decreased after treatment. However, these indexes were significantly lower in group O than those in group C after treatment, especially the neutrophil percentage, AMY, BUN, Cr, and TBIL. The time when the symptoms disappeared was 3.01±1.02 days in group O, which was shorter than 5.56±1.88 days in group C. There were 4 patients with acute renal failure and 2 patients had multiple organ failure in group C after treatment. But only 1 patient developed acute renal failure in group O. The difference in complications between two groups was significant (p<0.024). CONCLUSION The combination of hemodialysis and hemoperfusion could have a better effect on SAP in removing toxic metabolites and inflammation mediators. It not only shortens the time of symptoms disappearing but also decreases the incidence of complications and the mortality.

Carr RA, Rejowski BJ, Cote GA, Pitt HA, Zyromski NJ. Systematic review of hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis: A more virulent etiology? Pancreatology 2016; 16:469-76. [PMID: 27012480 DOI: 10.1016/j.pan.2016.02.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 129] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2015] [Revised: 02/02/2016] [Accepted: 02/19/2016] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We sought to define the severity and natural history of hypertriglyceridemia induced acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP), specifically whether HTG-AP causes more severe AP than that caused by other etiologies. METHODS Systematic review of the English literature. RESULTS Thirty-four studies (15 countries; 1972-2015) included 1340 HTG-AP patients (weighted mean prevalence of 9%). The median admission triglyceride concentration was 2622 mg/dl (range 1160-9769). Patients with HTG have a 14% weighted mean prevalence of AP. Plasmapheresis decreased circulating triglycerides, but did not conclusively affect AP mortality. Only 7 reports (n = 392 patients) compared severity of HTG-AP to that of AP from other etiologies. Of these, 2 studies found no difference in severity, while 5 suggested that HTG-AP patients may have increased severity compared to AP of other etiology. CONCLUSIONS 1) hypertriglyceridemia is a relatively uncommon (9%) cause of acute pancreatitis; however, patients with hypertriglyceridemia have a high (14%) incidence of acute pancreatitis; 2) plasmapheresis may offer specific therapy unique to this patient population; and 3) data specifically comparing the severity of HTG-AP with AP caused by other etiologies are heterogeneous and scarce.
