Estimation of respiratory test with 13C- mixed triglytcherides and gastrointestinal hormones effeciancy for the diagnosis of extrasecretory pancreatic with chronic pancreatitis was the aim of this examination. Test 13C- mixed triglytcherides was examined vercus test with pancreatic elastase of feces (E-1). 45 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 20 patients in 2 control groups were examined. The resuets testify to the lowering of pancreatic exocrine function in the patients with complicated chronic pancreatitis. The levels of E-1 and CPRDF (360) were trustworthy low the patients with complicated chronic pancreatitis versus the patients with chronic pancreatitis without complications and in control groups (p < 0.05). Correlative analysis the levels of E-1 and CPRDF (360) had demonstrated high degrel of results similarity. Persons correlation index was r = 0.64 (p < 0.001). The secretines level after standart breakfast in the patients with chronic pancreatitis was lowering, but was increasing in the healthy persons. Secretine lowering may lead to the bicarbonates secretion lowering. These results testify to the necessity of fermental treatment in the patients with chronic pancreatitis accordingly the pancreatitis stage.

Background: Alcoholic pancreatitis is a progressive condition characterized by susceptibility to recurrence, progression to chronic pancreatitis, complications, and high morbidity.
Summary: The main causes include long-term alcoholism, excessive drinking, the toxic effects of alcohol metabolites, interactions with biliary diseases, and genetic factors. Alcohol is the second leading cause of acute pancreatitis (AP) in the USA, accounting for one-third of all AP cases.

Background: Groove pancreatitis (GP) is a form of pancreatitis that affects the pancreaticoduodenal groove area, which lies between the head of the pancreas, the second part of the duodenum and the distal bile duct, presenting as abdominal pain and gastric outlet obstruction. In this study, we present the clinical and radiological characteristics of individuals diagnosed with groove pancreatitis at our center and discuss the use of a conservative treatment approach in managing GP.
Methods: The data of patients with groove pancreatitis treated at our center between January 2012 and December 2021 was analyzed.

Quiescent pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) represent only a very low proportion of the pancreatic tissue, but their activation leads to stroma remodeling and fibrosis associated with pathologies such as chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). PSC activation can be induced by various stresses, including acidosis, growth factors (PDGF, TGFβ), hypoxia, high pressure, or intercellular communication with pancreatic cancer cells. Activated PSC targeting represents a promising therapeutic strategy, but little is known regarding the molecular mechanisms underlying the activation of PSCs.

Karl Landsteiner discovered ABO blood group system in the early 20 century, but still, uncertainty remains in immunohematology while detection of ABO subgroups or weaker variants. The presence of weak subgroups in patient samples gives rise to the discrepancy in forward (cell) and reverse (serum) grouping. We here report a case of the B(A) phenotype in a patient who was diagnosed with chronic liver disease with acute pancreatitis, requiring packed red blood cells due to anemia.
