Derivation and validation of the prediabetes self-assessment screening score after acute pancreatitis (PERSEUS).

Background And Aim: Approximately 40% of patients develop abnormal glucose metabolism after a single episode of acute pancreatitis. This study aimed to develop and validate a prediabetes self-assessment screening score for patients after acute pancreatitis.

Methods: Data from non-overlapping training (n=82) and validation (n=80) cohorts were analysed.

Glucose Variability Measures as Predictors of Oral Feeding Intolerance in Acute Pancreatitis: A Prospective Pilot Study.

Background: Oral feeding intolerance (OFI) is a common complication in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). Variations in blood glucose are associated with impaired gastrointestinal function but, to date, measures of glucose variability have not been investigated to predict OFI in patients with AP.

Aim: To investigate the usefulness of several glucose variability measures in predicting the occurrence of OFI early in the course of AP.
