Incidence of recurrent and chronic pancreatitis after acute pancreatitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Therap Adv Gastroenterol 2024; 17:17562848241255303. [PMID: 38883160 PMCID: PMC11179553 DOI: 10.1177/17562848241255303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Acute pancreatitis (AP) has a high incidence, and patients can develop recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP) after AP. Objectives We aimed to estimate the pooled incidence rates (IRs), cumulative incidences, and proportions of RAP and CP after AP. Design A systematic review and meta-analysis of studies reporting the proportion of RAP and CP after AP. Data sources and methods The systematic search was conducted in three (PubMed, EMBASE, and CENTRAL) databases on 19 December 2023. Articles reporting the proportion of RAP or CP in patients after the first and multiple episodes of AP were eligible. The random effects model was used to calculate the pooled IR with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The I 2 value assessed heterogeneity. The risk of bias assessment was conducted with the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tool. Results We included 119 articles in the quantitative synthesis and 29 in the IRs calculations. Our results showed that the IR of RAP in adult patients after AP was 5.26 per 100 person-years (CI: 3.99-6.94; I 2 = 93%), while in children, it was 4.64 per 100 person-years (CI: 2.73-7.87; I 2 = 88%). We also found that the IR of CP after AP was 1.4 per 100 person-years (CI: 0.9-2; I 2 = 75%), while after RAP, it increased to 4.3 per 100 person-years (CI: 3.1-6.0; I 2 = 76%). The risk of bias was moderate in the majority of the included studies. Conclusion Our results showed that RAP affects many patients with AP. Compared to patients with the first AP episode, RAP leads to a threefold higher IR for developing CP. Trial registration Our protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42021283252).

A retrospective study on comparison of clinical characteristics and outcomes of diabetic ketoacidosis patients with and without acute pancreatitis. Sci Rep 2023; 13:4347. [PMID: 36928586 PMCID: PMC10018622 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-31465-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 03/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The co-existence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) with acute pancreatitis (AP) is associated with unfavorable clinical outcomes. However, diagnosing AP in DKA patients is challenging and often missed due to overlapping symptoms. The aim of this retrospective observational study was to compare the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with concomitant DKA and AP or DKA alone. Data of patients with DKA admitted between January 2015 to August 2021 to four hospitals in Qatar was extracted from the electronic health record (Cerner). American Diabetes Association criteria and Atlanta criteria were used for DKA and AP diagnosis, respectively. Independent T-test or Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze continuous variables, whereas categorical variables were analyzed via Chi-square or Fischer exact tests as appropriate. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were generated to assess the correlations. A p-value of < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Of 936 patients with DKA, 84 (9.0%) had coexisting AP. AP was most common in the Asian race (66%, p < 0.001). Patients with DKA and AP were older, had higher admission anion-gap, white cell count, hemoglobin (hb), neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, urea, creatinine, maximum blood glucose during the episode, total cholesterol and triglyceride level (TGL) (p < 0.05). They had a lower admission venous pH and bicarbonate at 6 h. Patients in the DKA with AP group also had a longer length of stay (LOS), DKA duration and a higher rate of ICU admission (p-values ≤ 0.001). In-hospital mortality, 3-month all-cause readmission, 6-month and 12-month DKA recurrence did not differ between the two groups. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed age, Asian ethnicity, male gender, T2D, admission WBC count, hb, urea, creatinine, potassium, venous pH, bicarbonate, anion gap, total cholesterol, TGL and LDL level were significantly associated with the development of DKA with AP (p < 0.05). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, age and total cholesterol level were associated with concomitant DKA and AP (p < 0.05). Patients with concomitant DKA and AP have more severe derangement in markers of DKA severity, inflammation, kidney injury and metabolic profile, along with a longer DKA duration, LOS and requirement for ICU support compared to DKA patients without AP. This highlights the clinical significance of diagnosing the co-existence of DKA with AP, as the combination results in significantly worse clinical outcomes and greater healthcare utilization than in patients with only DKA.

Abstract
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is the most common hyperglycemic emergency and causes the greatest risk for death that could be prevented in patients with diabetes mellitus. DKA occurs more commonly among patients with type-1 diabetes with a thirty percent of the cases take place in patients with type 2 diabetes. DKA is characterized by sever hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis and ketosis. Proper management of DKA requires hospitalization for aggressive replacement and monitoring of fluids, electrolytes and insulin therapy. Management of DKA has been updated with guidelines, to help standardize care, and reduce mortality and morbidity. The major precipitating factors for DKA include new diagnosis of diabetes, non-adherence to insulin therapy as well as infection in patients with diabetes. Discharge plans should include appropriate selection of insulin dosing and regimens as well as patient education to prevent recurrence of DKA. Further, definition and management of euglycemic DKA in patients prescribed sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors are discussed. Special consideration is reviewed for specific patient population including pregnancy, renal replacement, acute pancreatitis, and insulin pump users as well as patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
Objective This study aims to explore the incidence and clinical features of acute pancreatitis (AP) in patients with type 2 diabetes diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in the emergency department and discuss the predictive value of some pathological indicators for AP in DKA. Methods Inpatient medical data of DKA patients hospitalized to our hospital's emergency department between January 2017 and January 2021 were evaluated retrospectively. These DKA patients were split into two groups based on whether they had AP or not. We examined the two groups' epidemiologic features, baseline laboratory results, and clinical outcomes. The Bedside Index for Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II), and Logistic Organ Failure System (LODS) scores were computed and compared across groups. Results The prevalence of AP in DKA patients was 15.53%. The difference in Abdominal pain between the two groups of patients was statistically significant (p < 0.001), and there was no statistical difference in age, gender, and BMI. The DKA and AP group LOS (P < 0.001), ICU admission rate (P = 0.046), anion gap (P < 0.001), red blood cell (P = 0.002), hemoglobin (P < 0.001), hematocrit (P = 0.002), serum triglyceride (P < 0.001), serum cholesterol (P < 0.001), serum amylase (P = 0.004), random glucose (P = 0.028), plasma fibrinogen (P < 0.001), glycosylated hemoglobin [HbA1c (%); P = 0.008] higher than the DKA group, pH (P < 0.001), carbon dioxide combining power (CO2CP; P < 0.001), ionized calcium (Ca2+; P = 0.022), ionized sodium (Na+; P = 0.001), and correction Na (P = 0.034) lower than the DKA group. Multivariate analysis showed that low pH (P < 0.05), hypertriglyceridemia (P = 0.001), and hypercholesterolemia (P = 0.01) were risk factors for DKA combined with AP. ROC curve analysis showed that the three cut-off value: serum triglycerides of 10.52 mmol/L, serum cholesterol of 9.03 mmol/L, and pH of 7.214. Serum triglyceride has the largest area under the curve (0.93). Under this cut-off value, the sensitivity (80%) and specificity of serum triglyceride, the degree (93.7%) is the highest, while the positive predictive value (62.0%) and negative predictive value (94.7%) of serum cholesterol are the highest. Conclusions A severe episode of DKA with significant acidosis and hyperlipidemia is more likely to be linked with AP. The frequently used critical illness score is ineffective in determining the severity of the condition. When the serum triglyceride cut-off value is 10.52mmol/L, it has a higher predicted value for AP in DKA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) in a cohort from China and to identify simple laboratory parameters to discriminate high-risk patients. METHODS Patients diagnosed with AP and T2DM from January 2015 to December 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. They were divided into DKA group and non-DKA group. We calculated etiologies of AP, compared demographic and clinical features, laboratory findings on admission and clinical course. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to explore the ability of clinical parameters to identify high-risk patients. RESULTS A total of 136 patients were enrolled, of which 19.9% (27 patients) concomitant with DKA. Compared with patients without DKA, patients with DKA were younger and more obese with higher levels of serum triglycerides (TGs), blood glucose and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1C). There was a significant difference in etiology between the two groups. Compared with the non-DKA group, the DKA group showed higher rate of HTG, lower rates of gallstones and alcohol abuse. And patients in the DKA group were more likely to be admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) and have longer hospital stays. ROC analyses showed that blood glucose concentration at a cutoff value of 21.75 mmol/L resulted in the highest Youden index with sensitivity and specificity at 81.5% and 94.5%, respectively, for identifying concomitant DKA (AUC = 0.949). CONCLUSION The prevalence of concomitant DKA in T2DM patients with AP was 19.9%, concomitant DKA patients tend to be younger, more obese and have higher blood glucose and TGs levels on admission. We found that blood glucose >21.75mmol/L could potentially be used as a simple laboratory parameter to identify high-risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute pancreatitis in pregnancy (APIP) with persistent organ failure (POF) poses a high risk of death for mother and fetus. This study sought to create a nomogram model for early prediction of POF with APIP patients. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study on APIP patients with organ failure (OF) between January 2012 and March 2021. 131 patients were collected. Their clinical courses and pregnancy outcomes were obtained. Risk factors for POF were identified by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Prediction models with POF were built and nomogram was plotted. The performance of the nomogram was evaluated by using a bootstrapped-concordance index and calibration plots. RESULTS Hypertriglyceridemia was the most common etiology in this group of APIP patients, which accounted for 50% of transient organ failure (TOF) and 72.3% of POF. All in-hospital maternal death was in the POF group (P<0.05), which also had a significantly higher perinatal mortality rate than the TOF group (P<0.05). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis determined that lactate dehydrogenase, triglycerides, serum creatinine, and procalcitonin were independent risk factors for predicting POF in APIP. A nomogram for POF was created by using the four indicators. The area under the curve was 0.875 (95%CI: 0.80-0.95). The nomogram had a bootstrapped-concordance index of 0.85 and was well-calibrated. CONCLUSIONS Hypertriglyceridemia was the leading cause of organ failure-related APIP. Lactate dehydrogenase, triglycerides, serum creatinine, and procalcitonin were the independent risk factors of POF in APIP. Our nomogram model showed an effective prediction of POF with the four indicators in APIP patients.

Abstract
Hypertriglyceridemia is a rare cause of acute pancreatitis (AP), occupying approximately 7% of cases. The triad of acute pancreatitis, hypertriglyceridemia, and diabetes is a rare event, with a higher death rate. We describe two cases of severe acute metabolic pancreatitis discovered in diabetic ketoacidosis. For both patients, all other causes of AP were excluded (including gallstones, hypercalcemia, drugs, and alcohol). A laboratory workup revealed elevated lipasemia (more than three times the normal) and hypertriglyceridemia. Abdominal computed tomography confirmed the diagnosis of severe acute pancreatitis. Fasting, fluid resuscitation, and insulin therapy were initiated in the intensive care unit with good clinical results and progressive improvement in metabolic disorders.

Abstract
PURPOSE To characterize acute pancreatitis (AP) related to sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors and to investigate this relationship through disproportionality analysis in an international pharmacovigilance database. METHODS We analyzed all AP reports for canagliflozin, dapagliflozin and/or empagliflozin from the WHOs Global adverse drug reactions database VigiBase® up to July 2019. We characterized the patients, reporters, and reactions, and we present the proportional reporting ratio (PRR) and information component (IC) for each of the gliflozins. AP cases were reports containing at least one of 11 previously selected preferred terms. Gliflozin exposure was considered for all reports with at least one gliflozin as suspected/ interacting drug. RESULTS Of the 19 834 180 individual case safety reports in VigiBase, in 600 reports containing 618 AP group reactions, gliflozins were suspected/ interacting drugs. Men were affected in 52.3% of the cases and 59.6% of the patients were in the 45-64 years age group. The reporters were in 417 cases healthcare professionals. Most of the reactions were reported for canagliflozin (59.7%), followed by empagliflozin (21%) and dapagliflozin (19.2%) and were serious (98.6%). Most of the reactions' outcomes (84% of the patients) were favorable. Ketoacidosis was frequently associated with the AP (21.3%). Significant PRR and IC were found for pancreatitis and pancreatitis acute for all three gliflozins, pancreatitis necrotizing for canagliflozin and empagliflozin and pancreatitis relapsing for empagliflozin. CONCLUSIONS Most of the AP cases were serious and with favorable outcome. We identified possible alternative causes for AP, like concomitant medication, hypertriglyceridemia, and cholelithiasis and a frequent association with ketoacidosis. We found a significant association between AP and the use of canagliflozin, dapagliflozin, and empagliflozin that would need further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with growth hormone (GH)-secreting adenoma usually develop glucose intolerance. GH increases metabolic rate and, when secreted aberrantly, may result in metabolic syndrome. Herein, we examine the associations of pituitary tumor-induced secretion of hormone with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, and determine the relation of pituitary tumor apoplexy-induced diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute pancreatitis. CASE PRESENTATION A 44-year-old male with a history of hypertension presented to the emergency department of our hospital on February 14, 2019 with symptoms of headache, dizziness, and vomiting. Computed tomography of the head revealed pituitary tumor with bleeding. An ultrasound scan of the abdomen revealed fatty liver and acute pancreatitis. Further examination revealed the presence of DKA, hypertriglyceridemia, cortical hypofunction crisis and acute kidney injury. Surgical endoscopic resection of the pituitary tumor resection via the transsphenoidal approach was performed. The patient's postoperative recovery was remarkable. CONCLUSIONS Long-term growth hormone abnormality may trigger insulin resistance, leading to metabolic syndrome and impaired glucose and lipid metabolism. The pituitary adenoma apoplexy may also directly induce DKA, creating a domino effect, which further deteriorate the aberrant metabolism of glucose and lipids.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to analyze the genetics and treatments of the patients with the triad of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), hypertriglyceridemia, and acute pancreatitis (AP). METHODS We conducted a retrospective study of six patients with the triad of AP, hypertriglyceridemia, and DKA at our hospital. All patients underwent plasmapheresis as part of their treatment. The clinical characteristics of the patients were obtained from the hospital information system and analyzed. Whole exome sequencing was performed using samples of one patient (case 6) and his family members. RESULTS The average triglyceride level before plasmapheresis was 3282.17 ± 2975.43 mg/dL (range: 1646-9332 mg/dL). The triglyceride levels dropped by approximately 80% after plasmapheresis. None of the patients developed complications related from plasmapheresis. During follow-up, patients 5 and 6 developed recurrent pancreatitis for several times and showed the formation of pancreatic pseudocysts. We identified three novel heterozygous missense mutations in the family of patient 6, including c.12614C > T (p.Pro4205Leu) in APOB, c.160G > C (p.Glu54Gln) in CILP2, and c.1199C > A (p.Ala400Glu) in PEPD. CONCLUSIONS Three novel heterozygous missense mutations, including c.12614C > T (p.Pro4205Leu) in APOB, c.160G > C (p.Glu54Gln) in CILP2, and c.1199C > A (p.Ala400Glu) in PEPD were first identified in a patient with the triad of DKA, hypertriglyceridemia, and AP. The combination of plasmapheresis, hydration, and insulin therapy may have the greatest clinical benefits for these patients.

Loss of sympathetic innervation to islets of Langerhans in canine diabetes and pancreatitis is not associated with insulitis. Sci Rep 2020; 10:19187. [PMID: 33154408 PMCID: PMC7645777 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-76091-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2020] [Accepted: 10/21/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Canine diabetes mellitus (DM) affects 0.6% of the canine population and yet, its etiology is poorly understood. Most affected dogs are diagnosed as adults and are insulin-dependent. We compared pan-leukocyte and sympathetic innervation markers in pancreatic islets of adult dogs with spontaneous DM (sDM), spontaneous pancreatitis (sPanc), both (sDMPanc), toxin-induced DM (iDM) and controls. We found evidence of decreased islet sympathetic innervation but no significant infiltration of islets with leukocytes in all disease groups. We show that loss of sympathetic innervation is ongoing in canine DM and does not necessarily precede it. We further found selective loss of islet-associated beta cells in dogs with sDM and sDMPanc, suggesting that collateral damage from inflammation in the exocrine pancreas is not a likely cause of DM in these dogs. The cause of this selective loss of beta cells needs to be further elucidated but overall, our findings are not supportive of an autoimmune process as a cause of sDM in adult dogs. The loss of sympathetic innervation in sPanc in dogs that do not suffer from DM links the disease in the exocrine pancreas to a pathological process in the endocrine pancreas, suggesting pancreatitis might be a potential precursor to DM.

Acute Pancreatitis Induced by Diabetic Ketoacidosis with Major Hypertriglyceridemia: Report of Four Cases. Case Rep Crit Care 2020; 2020:7653730.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a real clinical challenge. Acute pancreatitis remains a common cause of emergency department consultations and a major cause for hospitalization. Gallstones and drinking a lot of alcohol are the most frequent causes of AP. Moreover, AP can be induced by diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) complicated by hypertriglyceridemia. We report 4 cases of DKA with hypertriglyceridemia complicated by AP in previously undiagnosed diabetes patients. All of our patients presented to the emergency ward with abdominal pain. Their physical exam showed epigastric tenderness. An abdominal CT scan was performed for each patient, showing an AP grade E. Laboratory samples showed high serum glucose levels. They had metabolic acidosis with elevated anion gap. They had high lipasemia and amylasemia. Their lipid panel was disturbed with a high level of cholesterol (from 12.8 mmol/l to 33 mmol/l) and triglyceridemia (from 53 to 133 mmol/l). Our patients were admitted into our ICU where they received fluid resuscitation and intravenous insulin, and their triglycerides rates decreased gradually. Two patients recovered to a good health state, and the two others developed septic shock, requiring the use of large-spectrum antibiotics, and acute kidney injury (AKI) with refractory metabolic acidosis, requiring hemodialysis. Despite the intensive treatment, they developed an unrecoverable multiorgan failure. Through our case series, we aim to highlight the importance of making an early diagnosis, which can be difficult in some situations due to overlapping signs; however, it is crucial for a good recovery. A good understanding of the pathway of hypoinsulinemic states causing hypertriglyceridemia then AP is important because it is the key to best management.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis(AP) is one of the common causes of acute abdomen and known to be associated with high morbidity and mortality in severe cases. Though most common causes of AP are cholelithiasis and alcoholism, it has also been reported in association with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Triad of AP, hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG) and DKA is rare co-association and here the causal factor of AP is still not fully established. We report a case of AP in a DKA patient with recent diagnosis of hyperlipidaemia and diabetes. Usually AP has been associated with severe HTG; interestingly, our patient showed only moderate raise in triglycerides but still suffered AP during DKA. Hence, it raises question about the real culprit in this enigmatic triad.

Abstract
The triad of acute pancreatitis (AP) coexisting with diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA) and hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) has been reported, but no impact on mortality has been found to date. We aim to assess if patients with this triad are at a higher inpatient mortality compared to patients with acute pancreatitis only.Retrospective cohort. The National Inpatient Sample (NIS) database from 2003 to 2013 was queried for patients with a discharge diagnosis of AP and presence of DKA and HTG was ascertained based on International Classification of Diseases, 9th revision (ICD9) codes. Adjusted for age, gender, race, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), median income quartile, and hospital characteristics.Over 2.8 million AP patients were analyzed. When compared with patients with AP-only, patients with the triad of AP + DKA + HTG had higher inpatient mortality (aOR 2.8, P < .001; CI: 1.9 - 4.2), Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) (aOR 4.1, P < .001; CI: 3.6-4.6), Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) (aOR 4.9, P < .001), Shock (aOR 4.3, P < .001), Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) (aOR 3.0, P < .001), sepsis (aOR 2.6, P < .001), ileus (aOR 2.1, P < .001), parenteral nutrition requirement (aOR 1.8, P < .001), inflation-adjusted hospital charges (US$ 17,704.1), and had longer length of stay (LOS) (aOR 2.0, P < .001; CI 1.8-2.3). Furthermore, when compared to AP-only, patients with AP + HTG had lower mortality, which is different from the current AP knowledge. Finally, it appears that the driving force for the increased in mortality of patients with the triad (AP, DKA, HTG) is the DKA rather than the HTG.Patients with the triad of AP, DKA, and HTG constitute a unique subgroup of patients that has higher inpatient mortality, multi-organ failure, hospital charges, and longer hospital length of stay. Therefore, hospital protocols targeting this subgroup of AP patients could improve mortality and outcomes.

Pseudohyponatremia in Hypertriglyceridemia-Induced Acute Pancreatitis: A Tool for Diagnosis Rather Than Merely a Laboratory Error? Pancreas 2019; 48:126-130.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The relative rarity of hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) as the etiology for acute pancreatitis (AP) delays the final diagnosis of hypertriglyceridemia-induced AP (HTG-AP). This study aimed to explore the diagnostic and prognostic value of pseudohyponatremia in this clinical entity. METHODS We retrospectively compared 140 patients with HTG-AP and 266 patients of AP of other etiologies. The correlation of presenting hyponatremia and a final diagnosis of HTG-AP is evaluated. RESULTS Presenting hyponatremia had an area under curve of 0.926 for predicting the diagnosis of HTG-AP. After dichotomization by the optimal cutoff value of 130 mEq/dL, patients with hyponatremia had a higher prevalence of acute kidney injury (61.9% vs 38.1%, P < 0.001), systemic inflammatory response syndrome (52.2% vs 47.8%, P < 0.001), a higher Ranson criteria (3.0 vs 1.4, P < 0.001), and a higher Bedside Index for Severity of Acute Pancreatitis score (0.69 vs 0.55, P = 0.011). CONCLUSIONS Presenting hyponatremia is highly efficient in differentiating hypertriglyceridemia from other etiologies of AP. It also demonstrated promising prognostic values in both AP and HTG-AP patients. Therefore, initial serum sodium could potentially provide the first clue of HTG-AP, as well as facilitate risk-stratifying patients to determine treatment allocation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of our study was to investigate the cases of drug-induced acute pancreatitis (DIAP) with hypertriglyceridemia as the mechanism of injury. METHODS A MEDLINE search (1963-2018) of the English language literature was performed looking for all human case reports of adults (>18 years old) with hypertriglyceridemia as the mechanism of DIAP. The latest search date was February 28, 2018. Drugs were classified into probability groups based on a classification used by Badalov et al (Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol. 2007;5:648-661). RESULTS The search revealed a total of 76 cases in 59 published reports. A total of 25 medications were found to be implicated in DIAP secondary to hypertriglyceridemia mechanism. Most of acute pancreatitis cases were mild or moderately severe with favorable outcomes. In 3 cases involving tamoxifen, pagaspargase, and quetiapine, patient death was the outcome. Plasmapheresis was only used in 9 cases in an effort to decrease triglyceride levels. CONCLUSIONS Hypertriglyceridemia-associated DIAP is a rare phenomenon, and the current systematic review provides a summary of drugs that have been implicated in this phenomenon, which allow physicians to be oriented about this adverse effect when these drugs are used.
