- Changes in the brain from Alzheimer's and other age-related diseases can cause problems with thinking and behavior, even before serious symptoms appear.
- The study looked at how a person's cognitive reserve (a mix of education and experiences) relates to mild behavioral issues.
- Results showed that people with a higher cognitive reserve had better brain test scores and fewer behavior problems, which suggests that keeping mentally active might help both thinking and behavior as we get older.
Background: Pancreatitis following endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) can lead to significant morbidity and mortality. We aimed to develop an accurate post-ERCP pancreatitis risk prediction model using easily obtainable variables.
Methods: Using prospective multi-center ERCP data, we performed logistic regression using stepwise selection on several patient-, procedure-, and endoscopist-related factors that were determined a priori.
