AI Article Synopsis
- * Tobacco smoking is a significant risk factor for both acute and chronic pancreatitis.
- * Both forms of pancreatitis increase the risk of pancreatic cancer, and after experiencing acute pancreatitis, patients should be considered at high risk for developing cancer.
Article Abstract
This is an overview of relation between acute and chronic pancreatitis and between acute pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. Acute pancreatitis and recurrent acute pancreatitis are an etiological factor of chronic pancreatitis. Population-based studies have calculated the risk of acute recurrent pancreatitis after the first attack of acute pancreatitis to be 20% and development of chronic pancreatitis after first attack of acute pancreatitis is 10%. An important risk factor is tobacco smoking. Acute and chronic pancreatitis are risk factors for pancreatic cancer. The risk of acute pancreatitis is related to the number of recurrences of acute pancreatitis, but not the etiology of acute pancreatitis. Acute pancreatitis, as well as chronic pancreatitis, are risk factors for pancreatic cancer. After an attack of acute pancreatitis or recurrent acute pancreatitis a patient should be regarded as a high risk.

Department of Medicine, Division of Infectious Disease, University of Illinois at Chicago, Peoria, USA.
The spleen plays a crucial role in filtering aging blood cells and defending against encapsulated microorganisms. While not essential for survival, splenic dysfunction can lead to severe complications, including organ failure, infection, and death. This case study examines a rare presentation of drug-induced splenic septic thrombophlebitis secondary to pancreatitis caused by an adverse reaction to ceftriaxone.

Introduction: In an effort to treat patients with malignant hilar obstruction (MHO), both percutaneous trans-hepatic biliary stenting (PTBS) and endoscopic biliary stenting (EBS) strategies have been implemented in the clinic, but the relative advantages of these techniques remain to be clarified.
Aim: This meta-analysis was designed to compare the relative clinical efficacy of PTBS and EBS in MHO patients.Material and methods: Relevant studies were identified through searches of the PubMed, Web of science, and Wanfang databases, and pooled analyses of these studies were then performed.

Background: Fatty changes in the pancreas are common, whereas total pancreatic lipomatosis (PL) is rare. Commonly associated with various components of metabolic syndrome and metabolic-associated steatotic liver disease, total PL can have various etiologies and can manifest with severe pancreatic exocrine insufficiency.
Method: We retrospectively analysed the clinical profile and management outcomes of 8 patients (mean age: 37.

Background And Objectives: EUS is recommended for guiding pancreatic tissue acquisition in suspected autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) cases. However, there is a lack of comparative research on the effectiveness between EUS-guided fine-needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) and EUS-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) for diagnosing AIP in China. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of EUS-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) specifically for type 1 AIP.
