J Diabetes Investig 2024; 15:1422-1433. [PMID: 38943656 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.14229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024] Open
Abstract
AIM/INTRODUCTION The recent adverse reactions associated with semaglutide have led the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to issue a "black box warning", and it is necessary to analyze all reports of adverse reactions to improve the safety of its clinical use. MATERIALS AND METHODS Statistical analyses and signal mining were performed by obtaining the adverse event reports related to semaglutide in the FAERS database from the first quarter of 2018 to the fourth quarter of 2023. We used disproportionality and Bayesian analysis to examine clinical and demographic attributes, trends reported quarterly, and contrasts between two distinct indications (obesity and type 2 diabetes). RESULTS We found 10 unexpected adverse signals related to "pancreatic cancer", "intestinal obstruction", "cholecystitis", and "polycystic ovary" and both the two different indications had the same serious adverse reaction events occurring. CONCLUSIONS This study identified many unexpected signals of serious adverse reactions, suggesting the importance of continuous post-marketing surveillance of semaglutide to understand its potential risks.

Chronic liver disease is an important risk factor for worse outcomes in acute pancreatitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Sci Rep 2024; 14:16723. [PMID: 39030187 PMCID: PMC11271551 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-66710-w] [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: 04/14/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Chronic liver diseases (CLD) affect 1.5 billion patients worldwide, with dramatically increasing incidence in recent decades. It has been hypothesized that the chronic hyperinflammation associated with CLD may increase the risk of a more severe course of acute pancreatitis (AP). This study aims to investigate the underlying impact of CLD on the outcomes of AP. A systematic search was conducted in Embase, Medline, and Central databases until October 2022. Studies investigating patients with acute pancreatitis and CLD, were included in the meta-analysis. A total of 14,963 articles were screened, of which 36 were eligible to be included. CLD was a risk factor for increased mortality with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.53 (CI 1.30 to 4.93, p = 0.01). Furthermore, renal, cardiac, and respiratory failures were more common in the CLD group, with ORs of 1.92 (CI 1.3 to 2.83, p = 0.01), 2.11 (CI 0.93 to 4.77, p = 0.062) and 1.99 (CI 1.08 to 3.65, p = 0.033), respectively. Moreover, the likelihood of developing Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) was significantly higher, with an OR of 1.95 (CI 1.03 to 3.68, p = 0.042). CLD is an important risk factor for worse outcomes in AP pancreatitis, leading to higher mortality and increased rates of local and systemic complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine the predictors and outcomes associated with the development of acute pancreatitis (AP) in patients hospitalized with Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). METHODS This is an observational analysis of the 2020 National Inpatient Sample Database. The study includes adult patients who were admitted with a confirmed diagnosis of COVID-19 and stratifies them based on the presence or absence of AP during their hospitalization. Predictors of AP development between the two groups and differences in outcomes are examined. Multivariate logistic regression analysis using Stata/BE 17.0 is conducted, with adjustments made for age, sex, race, and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI). Statistical significance is determined at a p-value of <0.05. RESULTS Significant factors associated with an increased risk of AP in COVID-19 patients include Hispanic ethnicity, higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score, residence in states located in the southern region, history of chronic kidney disease, chronic liver disease, malnutrition, portal hypertension, and alcohol use. COVID-19 patients who developed AP were also found to be at higher risk of adverse outcomes, including mortality, acute coronary syndrome, acute kidney injury, sepsis, septic shock, in-hospital cardiac arrest, invasive mechanical ventilation, upper gastrointestinal bleeding, prolonged length of stay, and increased healthcare cost. CONCLUSIONS In hospitalized patients with COVID-19, the presence of AP is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. Risk factors for developing AP in this population include Hispanic ethnicity, residence in the southern region, higher Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) score, history of chronic kidney disease, chronic liver disease, malnutrition, portal hypertension, and alcohol use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) can exacerbate the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP), and this severity is worsened with increased severity of NAFLD. This study aimed to investigate the relation between serum triglyceride (TG) and the severity of AP with NAFLD by collecting clinical data from AP patients with NAFLD. METHODS AP patients with NAFLD were divided into 2 groups according to TG levels: hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) group and non-hypertriglyceridemia (NHTG) group. RESULTS In total, 598 AP patients with NAFLD were enrolled in this study, including 433 in the HTG group and 165 in the NHTG group. Compared with the NHTG group, AP patients in the HTG group were more serious (P < 0.05). The incidence of persistent organ failure (POF), especially persistent respiratory failure, and the ratio of acute peripancreatic fluid collection (APFC) were higher in the HTG group (P < 0.05). Higher TG levels were associated with a higher incidence of APFC (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of APFC was significantly higher in moderate and severe NAFLD than in mild NAFLD. CONCLUSION HTG may aggravate the severity and local complications of AP combined with NAFLD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although diabetes is reportedly associated with the occurrence of acute pancreatitis (AP), the risk of AP according to the duration and severity of diabetes is not yet clear. We aimed to investigate the risk of AP based on glycemic status and the presence of comorbidities using a nationwide population-based study. METHODS We enrolled 3,912,496 adults who underwent health examinations under the National Health Insurance Service in 2009. All participants were categorized by glycemic status as normoglycemic, impaired fasting glucose (IFG), or diabetes. Baseline characteristics and the presence of comorbidities at the time of health check-up were investigated, and the occurrence of AP was followed up until 31 December 2018. We estimated the adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) for AP occurrence according to the glycemic status, duration of diabetes (new-onset, duration < 5 years, or ≥ 5 years), type and number of anti-diabetic medications, and presence of comorbidities. RESULTS During the observation period of 32,116,716.93 person-years, 8,933 cases of AP occurred. Compared with normoglycemia, the aHRs (95% confidence interval) were 1.153 (1.097-1.212) in IFG, 1.389 (1.260-1.531) in new-onset diabetes, 1.634 (1.496-1.785) in known diabetes < 5 years, and 1.656 (1.513-1.813) in patients with known diabetes aged ≥ 5 years. The presence of comorbidities associated with diabetes severity had a synergistic effect on the relationship between diabetes and AP occurrence. CONCLUSION As glycemic status worsens, the risk of AP increases, and there is a synergistic effect when comorbidities coexist. To reduce the risk of AP, active control of factors that can cause AP should be considered in patients with long-standing diabetes and comorbidities.

Abstract
Background Despite being the most common liver disease worldwide, the clinical trajectory and inpatient crude mortality rate of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) have not been thoroughly studied. Methods We conducted a single-center retrospective case-control study of patients admitted to a general ICU setting between the years 2015 and 2020. Medical records from patients who met the diagnostic criteria for NAFLD, as well as age- and gender-matched control group, were reviewed. The primary endpoint was crude ICU mortality, defined as death within 30 days of ICU admission. The secondary outcomes included presentation with septic shock and severe sepsis, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II scores, vasopressor requirements, mechanical ventilation need, and admission-to-ICU transfer time. Results Two hundred fifty subjects were enrolled and were equally divided into the NAFLD and control groups. NAFLD group subjects had higher overall 30-day ICU mortality (63.9% vs 36.1%, P < 0.05), more frequent presentation with septic shock and severe sepsis (55.2% vs 33.6%, P < 0.05), higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment scores at presentation (21.3 ± 12.5 vs 16.6 ± 10.5 and 11.36 ± 5.2 vs 8.3 ± 6.2, P < 0.05), higher need for mechanical ventilation (18.4 vs 7.2%, P = 0.05), and vasopressor (15.2% vs 7.2%, P = 0.05) dependency on admission with a shorter admission-to-ICU transfer mean interval (3 vs 6 days, P < 0.05). There were no differences in the need for blood transfusions, steroids, or dialysis between the two groups. Higher fibrosis-4 (FIB-4) and NAFLD fibrosis scores were found to be associated with mortality in ICU-admitted NAFLD patients. Conclusion NAFLD patients are more likely than non-NAFLD admitted ICU patients to present with severe sepsis and septic shock, have a shorter admission-to-ICU transfer time, and have a higher crude ICU mortality rate.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a very common acute disease, and the mortality rate of severe AP (SAP) is between 15% and 35%. The main causes of death are multiple organ dysfunction syndrome and infections. The mortality rate of patients with SAP related to liver failure is as high as 83%, and approximately 5% of the SAP patients have fulminant liver failure. Liver function is closely related to the progression and prognosis of AP. In this review, we aim to elaborate on the clinical manifestations and mechanism of liver injury in patients with AP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has become a major cause of chronic liver disease. Several extrahepatic manifestations have been reported in relation to NAFLD. However, data regarding pancreatobiliary manifestation are scarce. AIM We aimed to explore the association of pancreatobiliary manifestation with NAFLD. METHODS A retrospective multicenter study that included all patients who underwent an endoscopic ultrasound performed for hepatobiliary indications and for whom the endosonographer reported on the presence or absence of fatty liver. The endoscopic ultrasound reports were reviewed and all pathological findings were reported. RESULTS Overall, 545 patients were included in the study, among them, 278 patients had fatty liver (group A) as compared to 267 who did not have (group B). The average age in group A was 64.5 ± 13.5 years vs. 61.2 ± 14.7 years in group B. Male sex constituted 49.6 and 58% in groups A and B, respectively. On multivariate analysis, fatty pancreas [odds ratio (OR) 4.02; P = 0.001], serous cystadenoma (SCA) (OR 5.1; P = 0.0009), mucinous cystadenoma (MCA) (OR 9.7; P = 0.005), side-branch intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) (OR 2.76; P < 0.0001), mixed-type IPMN (OR 16.4; P = 0.0004), pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (NET) (OR 8.76; P < 0.0001), gallbladder stones (OR 1.9; P = 0.02) and hilar lymphadenopathy (OR 6.8; P < 0.0001) were significantly higher among patients with NAFLD. After adjustment for fatty pancreas, the association remained significant for SCA (OR 3; P = 0.01), MCA (OR 4.6; P = 0.03), side-branch IPMN (OR 1.7; P = 0.02), mixed-type IPMN (OR 5.5; P = 0.01) and pancreatic NET (OR 4.5; P = 0.001). CONCLUSION Pancreatobiliary manifestations are common among patients with NAFLD. Assessment of these coexistent manifestations should be considered in the setting of patients with NAFLD.

ARQUIVOS DE GASTROENTEROLOGIA 2021; 58:17-25. [PMID: 33909792 DOI: 10.1590/s0004-2803.202100000-05] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2020] [Accepted: 10/21/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND New recommendations for the management of patients with acute pancreatitis were set after the Atlanta Classification was revised in 2012. OBJECTIVE The aim of the present systematic review is to assess whether these recommendations have already been accepted and implemented in daily medical practices. METHODS A systematic literature review was carried out in studies conducted with humans and published in English and Portuguese language from 10/25/2012 to 11/30/2018. The search was conducted in databases such as PubMed/Medline, Cochrane and SciELO, based on the following descriptors/Boolean operator: "Acute pancreatitis" AND "Atlanta". Only Randomized Clinical Trials comprising some recommendations released after the revised Atlanta Classification in 2012 were included in the study. RESULTS Eighty-nine studies were selected and considered valid after inclusion, exclusion and qualitative evaluation criteria application. These studies were stratified as to whether, or not, they applied the recommendations suggested after the Atlanta Classification revision. Based on the results, 68.5% of the studies applied the recommendations, with emphasis on the application of severity classification (mild, moderately severe, severe); 16.4% of them were North-American and 14.7% were Chinese. The remaining 31.5% just focused on comparing or validating the severity classification. CONCLUSION Few studies have disclosed any form of acceptance or practice of these recommendations, despite the US and Chinese efforts. The lack of incorporation of these recommendations didn't enable harnessing the benefits of their application in the clinical practice (particularly the improvement of the communication among health professionals and directly association with the worst prognoses); thus, it is necessary mobilizing the international medical community in order to change this scenario.

Dysregulation of miR-192-5p in acute pancreatitis patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver and its functional role in acute pancreatitis progression. Biosci Rep 2021; 40:224146. [PMID: 32406504 PMCID: PMC7256679 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20194345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2019] [Revised: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 05/11/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a frequent metabolic disease and has been demonstrated to contribute to the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP). The present study aimed to investigate the aberrant expression of microRNA-192-5p (miR-192-5p) in AP patients with NAFLD, and further analyze the clinical significance and biological function of miR-192-5p in AP progression. METHODS Expression of miR-192-5p was estimated using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Diagnostic value of miR-192-5p was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The effects of miR-192-5p on cell proliferation, apoptosis and inflammatory response of pancreatic acinar cells were further assessed by CCK-8 assay, flow cytometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS Circulating miR-192-5p was decreased in AP patients with NAFLD compared with those patients without NAFLD and healthy controls (P<0.05). The down-regulated expression of miR-192-5p had a relative high diagnostic accuracy to distinguish the AP patients with NAFLD from the cases without NAFLD. Furthermore, the overexpression of miR-192-5p in pancreatic acinar cells led to the decreased cell proliferation, increased cell apoptosis and suppressed inflammatory reaction (all P<0.05). CONCLUSION Collectively, all data indicated that serum expression of miR-192-5p in AP patients with NAFLD is significantly decreased and serves as a candidate diagnostic biomarker. The up-regulation of miR-192-5p in pancreatic acinar cell leads to increased cell apoptosis and decreased inflammatory response, suggesting the potential of miR-192-5p as a therapeutic target of AP.

Abstract
Communication between organs participates in most physiological and pathological events. Owing to the importance of precise coordination among the liver and virtually all organs in the body for the maintenance of homeostasis, many hepatic disorders originate from impaired organ-organ communication, resulting in concomitant pathological phenotypes of distant organs. Hepatokines are proteins that are predominantly secreted from the liver, and many hepatokines and several signaling proteins have been linked to diseases of other organs, such as the heart, muscle, bone, and eyes. Although liver-centered interorgan communication has been proposed in both basic and clinical studies, to date, the regulatory mechanisms of hepatokine production, secretion, and reciprocation with signaling factors from other organs are obscure. Whether other hormones and cytokines are involved in such communication also warrants investigation. Herein, we summarize the current knowledge of organ-organ communication phenotypes in a variety of diseases and the possible involvement of hepatokines and/or other important signaling factors. This provides novel insight into the underlying roles and mechanisms of liver-originated signal transduction and, more importantly, the understanding of disease in an integrative view.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Concomitant occurrence of alcoholic chronic pancreatitis (ACP) and alcoholic liver cirrhosis (ALC) is rare with few reported cases. The present study aimed to identify the potential risk factors of chronic pancreatitis (CP) and liver cirrhosis (LC) in ALC patients and ACP patients, respectively. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 536 patients with CP and 647 ALC patients without CP (Group A). Among the 536 CP patients, 213 ACP cases were divided into two groups: ACP with LC (Group B, n = 52) and ACP without LC (Group C, n = 161). A comparison between Group A and B was carried out to identify the potential risk factors of CP in ALC patients, while Group B and C were compared to determine the independent risk factors of LC in ACP patients. RESULTS Concomitant occurrence of ACP and ALC accounted for 24.4% (52/213) in this cohort. Significant risk factors for CP in ALC patients included smoking [odds ratio (OR), 2.557; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.531-5.489; P = 0.003] and multiple bouts of acute pancreatitis (OR, 4.813; 95% CI: 3.625-12.971; P < 0.001). Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection (OR, 4.237; 95% CI: 1.742-7.629; P = 0.012) was the only independent risk factor associated with LC in ACP patients. CONCLUSION HBV infection exacerbated liver damage in ACP patients. Alcoholic patients who smoked and suffered from ongoing bouts of acute pancreatitis are prone to develop CP.

Abstract
The prevalence of fatty liver disease (FLD) and that of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) share some risk factors known to exacerbate the course of acute pancreatitis (AP). This meta-analysis aimed to investigate whether FLD or NAFLD carry a higher risk of untoward outcomes in AP. In accordance with PRISMA guidelines, we performed a systematic search in seven medical databases for cohort studies that compared the outcomes of AP for the presence of FLD or NAFLD, and we calculated pooled odds ratio (OR) or weighted mean difference (WMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI). We included 13 articles in our meta-analysis. AP patients with FLD were more likely to die (5.09% vs 1.89%, OR = 3.56, CI = 1.75-7.22), develop severe AP (16.33% vs 7.87%, OR = 2.67, CI = 2.01-3.56), necrotizing pancreatitis (34.83% vs 15.75%, OR = 3.08, CI = 2.44-3.90) and had longer in-hospital stay (10.8 vs 9.2 days, WMD = 1.46, OR = 0.54-2.39). Patients with NAFLD were more likely to have severe AP and longer hospital stay. Both FLD and NAFLD proved to be independent risk factors of a more severe disease course (OR = 3.68, CI = 2.16-6.29 and OR = 3.39, CI = 1.52-7.56 for moderate/ severe vs. mild AP, respectively). FLD and NAFLD worsen the outcomes of AP, which suggests that incorporating FLD or NAFLD into prognostic scoring systems of AP outcomes might improve the prediction of severity and contribute to a more individualized patient care.

Abstract
Background. The population of patients with acute pancreatitis treated by the staff at our department of gastroenterology includes those with mild and self-limited disease ranging to those with severe and fatal disease. Early diagnosis and accurate prediction of the severity and outcome of this disease, which is commonly seen by our department, is important for a successful outcome. Metabolic comorbidities (e.g., diabetes mellitus, fatty liver, obesity, and metabolic syndrome) are relevant to the severity and progression of many diseases. The objective of this review was to examine clinical relationships between metabolic comorbidities and occurrence, severity, and outcome of acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the association between nonalcoholic fatty pancreas disease and the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP). PATIENTS AND METHODS Among the 1662 AP patients admitted between August 2010 and August 2017, 82 eligible patients with moderately severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and SAP were selected. Meanwhile, 164 mild AP patients were age-matched, sex-matched, and BMI-matched at a ratio of 1 : 2. Nonalcoholic fatty pancreas disease was estimated by mean pancreas attenuation by unenhanced computed tomography. Finally, 1662 patients were screened and 246 patients were analyzed. RESULTS For the 246 patients, the mean pancreatic attenuation and pancreas-to-spleen attenuation ratio (P/S ratio) were significantly lower in the moderately SAP and SAP groups compared with those in the mild AP group (both, P<0.001). Pancreatic attenuation decreased with an increase in the rate of ICU transfer, AP severity, systemic complications, and prognostic factors of AP (Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II score≥8; P<0.001). A decreased P/S ratio was correlated positively with the increased mortality of patients with AP (hazard ratio: 0.000; 95% confidence interval: 0.000-0.012; P<0.001), as determined by Cox proportional regression analysis adjusted for creatinine, calcium, and albumin levels. CONCLUSION The pancreatic attenuation level and P/S ratio are correlated independently to severity, mortality, and systemic complications in patients with AP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fatty liver (FL) has been positively associated with the risk of acute pancreatitis (AP), but whether FL is associated with the severity of AP remains unknown. To this, a meta-analysis was conducted to assess the effect of FL on severity and outcomes of AP. METHOD We searched PubMed, EMBASE and the Cochrane library to identify all eligible studies (up to June 2017). We pooled the odds ratios (ORs) or weighted mean differences (WMD) from individual studies using a random-effects model to investigate associations between FL and the prognosis of AP. RESULT Four studies were included in the meta-analysis, including a total of 805 patients with fatty liver-related acute pancreatitis (FLAP) and 1026 patients with non fatty liver-related acute pancreatitis (NFLAP). The incidences of moderately severe AP (MSAP) (OR = 2.72, 95%CI: 1.82-4.05, P < 0.001) and severe AP (SAP) (OR = 3.57, 95%CI: 2.06-6.18, P < 0.001) were statistically significantly higher in FLAP group than those in NFLAP group. Taking obesity into consideration, a higher rate of MSAP and SAP were also found in patients with FL, no matter whether they were obese or not. Furthermore, mortality (OR = 4.16, 95%CI: 2.57-6.73, P < 0.001), systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) (OR = 2.82, 95%CI: 2.3-3.47, P < 0.001) and local complications were also statistically significantly higher in the FLAP group than in NFLAP group. CONCLUSION Fatty liver is associated with the severity of acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
Background and Aim The incidence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as a metabolic disease is increasing annually. In the present study, we aimed to explore the influence of NAFLD on the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods The severity of AP was diagnosed and analyzed according to the 2012 revised Atlanta Classification. Outcome variables, including the severity of AP, organ failure (all types of organ failure), and systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), were compared for patients with and without NAFLD. Results Six hundred and fifty-six patients were enrolled in the study and were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of NAFLD. The non-NAFLD group contained 278 patients and the main etiology in this group was gallstone. The NAFLD group consisted of 378 patients and the main etiology was hyperlipidemia. The incidence of mild AP, moderately severe AP, and severe AP was 77.30%, 18.3%, and 4.3% in the non-NAFLD group and 58.2%, 33.9%, and 7.9% in the NAFLD group, respectively. There were significant differences between the two groups according to the severity of AP (P ≤ 0.001). In addition, the Ranson and BISAP scores as well as the incidence of SIRS and organ failure in the NAFLD group were higher than those in the non-NAFLD group (all P < 0.05). The patients were further divided into non-NAFLD, mild-NAFLD, and moderate-severe NAFLD (M+S-NAFLD) groups. The results showed that the severity of AP increased gradually from the non-NAFLD group to the M+S-NAFLD group. In addition, the incidence rates of SIRS and organ failure showed an upward trend with the aggravation of fatty liver severity. Multivariate logistic analysis showed that patients with NAFLD, especially those with M+S-NAFLD, had higher risks of SIRS and organ failure. Conclusions Compared with non-NAFLD, NAFLD has a clinically relevant impact on the severity of AP and may be an early prognostic parameter for patients with AP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To investigate the association between serum albumin levels within 24 hrs of patient admission and the development of persistent organ failure in acute pancreatitis. METHODS A total of 700 patients with acute pancreatitis were enrolled. Multivariate logistic regression and subgroup analysis determined whether decreased albumin was independently associated with persistent organ failure and mortality. The diagnostic performance of serum albumin was evaluated by the area under Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves. RESULTS As levels of serum albumin decrease, the risk of persistent organ failure significantly increases (Ptrend < 0.001). The incidence of organ failure was 3.5%, 10.6%, and 41.6% in patients with normal albumin and mild and severe hypoalbuminaemia, respectively. Decreased albumin levels were also proportionally associated with prolonged hospital stay (Ptrend < 0.001) and the risk of death (Ptrend < 0.001). Multivariate analysis suggested that biliary etiology, chronic concomitant diseases, hematocrit, blood urea nitrogen, and the serum albumin level were independently associated with persistent organ failure. Blood urea nitrogen and the serum albumin level were also independently associated with mortality. The area under ROC curves of albumin for predicting organ failure and mortality were 0.78 and 0.87, respectively. CONCLUSION A low serum albumin is independently associated with an increased risk of developing of persistent organ failure and death in acute pancreatitis. It may also be useful for the prediction of the severity of acute pancreatitis.
