Aim: Hypothermia-associated pancreatitis lacks comprehensive understanding owing to limited studies exploring its mechanism, epidemiology, risk factors, and outcomes. We aimed to investigate the frequency, characteristics, and predictive factors associated with the development of acute pancreatitis in patients with accidental hypothermia.
Methods: This study comprised a post hoc analysis of data from a multicenter prospective observational study (ICE-CRASH study) conducted in 36 tertiary emergency hospitals in Japan.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease of the pancreas and a complex process involving multiple factors, with mitochondrial damage playing a crucial role. Mitochondrial dysfunction is now considered a key driver in the development of AP. This dysfunction often presents as increased oxidative stress, altered membrane potential and permeability, and mitochondrial DNA damage and mutations.

High anion gap metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) is a common biochemical abnormality in hospitalized patients, often linked to conditions such as lactic acidosis, renal failure, or drug toxicity. A rare etiology, 5-oxoprolinuria, resulting from acetaminophen use, malnutrition, and sepsis, is increasingly recognized in critically ill patients. We report a 29-year-old male with a history of intellectual disability and normal baseline kidney function who was admitted with acute necrotizing pancreatitis and developed severe metabolic acidosis and acute kidney injury (AKI).

Acute pancreatitis (AP) represents a severe inflammatory condition of the exocrine pancreas, precipitating systemic organ dysfunction and potential failure. The global prevalence of acute pancreatitis is on an ascending trajectory. The condition carries a significant mortality rate during acute episodes.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a severe gastrointestinal condition with an increasing incidence of hyperlipidemic etiology. The investigation employed a two-sample, bidirectional Mendelian randomization method to investigate potential causal relationship between lipidome profiles, inflammatory mediators, and AP. Exploration of genetic variants across the genome in a study population of 10,630 AP cases and 844,679 non-AP individuals revealed multiple lipidome entities significantly associated with AP risk.
