AI Article Synopsis
- Recent studies focus on the genetic factors linked to pancreatic diseases, especially in relation to alcohol consumption.
- The development of alcoholic pancreatitis is influenced by both environmental factors and individual genetic profiles.
- This review highlights key findings on the prevalence of genetic mutations associated with alcoholic chronic pancreatitis.
Article Abstract
In recent years many studies have examined the genetic predisposition to pancreatic diseases. Pancreatic disease of an alcoholic etiology was determined to be a multi-factorial disease, where environmental factors interact with the genetic profile of the individual. In this review we discuss the main results from studies examining the frequency of genetic mutations in alcoholic chronic pancreatitis.
