Estimation of the severity state in patient, suffering an acute pancreatitis, while admitting him into a hospital, constitutes a significant part of diagnosis and complex treatment. Application of a highly accurate scales and markers, which are used to prognosticate the disease course severity and to determine the inflammation grade, may influence the results of complex treatment of the patients. In the investigation a high diagnostic accuracy in prognosis of an acute pancreatitis course severity was noted for APACHE II scale (24 hours) and Ranson scale (48 hours). There was established, that determination of a C-reactive protein content has less diagnostic accuracy, but it may be applied as a less complex and more rapid test for prognostication of an acute pancreatitis course severity after admitting the patient to hospital.

Background And Aim: Proximal migration is one of the complications after pancreatic stenting. This study aims to determine the incidence, risk factors and endoscopic treatment of proximally migrated pancreatic stents.
Methods: A retrospective search of all the endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) records was conducted from 1997 to 2022 in our tertiary center.
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a life-threatening condition, with a higher mortality rate in men than women and in which estrogens might play a protective role. This study aimed to investigate sex-dependent differences in a mouse model of caerulein-induced AP. Thirty-six C57BL/6J mice (19 females and 17 males) were treated intraperitoneally with phosphate-buffered saline or caerulein, and sacrificed 12 hours, 2 days, or 7 days after the last injection.

Clinical endpoints caused by hyperlipoproteinemia include atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and acute pancreatitis. Emerging lipid-lowering therapies targeting proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin 9 (PCSK9), lipoprotein(a), apolipoprotein C-III, and angiopoietin-like protein 3 represent promising advances in the management of patients with hyperlipoproteinemia. These therapies offer novel approaches for lowering pathogenic lipid and lipoprotein species, particularly in patients with serious perturbations who are not adequately controlled with conventional treatments or who are unable to tolerate them.

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a serious inflammatory disease with high incidence rate and mortality. It was confirmed that overactivation of autophagy in acinar cells can increase the risk of AP. Nevertheless, the regulatory mechanism of autophagy in AP is unclear.
