Objective To investigate the mechanism of gastrointestinal motility disorder of severe acute pancreatitis （SAP） in rats. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups：sham operation （SO） group （n=16） and SAP group （n=16）. The gastric antrum interdigestive myoelectric complex （IMC） of rat was recorded by using bipolar silver electrode recording， the concentration of serum motilin （MTL） and vasoactive intestinal peptide （VIP） were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） method， and determined the pancreatic pathology score. Results Compared with SO group， the concentration of serum MTL obvious decreased and the concentration of VIP obvious rised in SAP group （P＜0.01）. Compared with SO group， the time of IMC cycle， andⅠand Ⅱ phase were extended， and time of Ⅲ phase was shortened， also the amplitude and frequency of peak electric of Ⅲ phase were declined in SAP group （P＜0.01）. And the concentration of MTL in SAP group showed positive correlation with the time of Ⅲ phase of IMC （r=0.967， P＜0.01）， the concentration of VIP in SAP group showed negative correlation with the time of Ⅲ phase of IMC （r=-0.592， P＜0.05）. The pancreatic organization pathological score in SAP group was higher than that in SO group （P＜0.01）. Conclusion There is gastrointestinal motility disorder in SAP rats， furthermore， it may induce gastrointestinal motility disorder through effecting the gastrointestinal smooth muscle electrical activity.
Objective To systematically assess the efficacy and clinical significance of antibiotic prophylaxis in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), so as to provide references for its rational clinical application. Methods For collecting the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about antibiotic prophylaxis in SAP, a search was conducted in MEDLINE, EMbase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CBM and CNKI from the date of their establishment to August, 2010. After the clinical studies meeting the inclusive criteria were extracted and their quality was assessed. Meta-analysis was conduced by using RevMan 5.0 software. Results Twelve RCTs were included with a total of 777 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed compared with the control group, the antibiotic prophylaxis group was not associated with a statistically signi?cant reduction in mortality (RR=0.75, 95%CI 0.50 to 1.12), in the incidence of infected pancreatic necrosis (RR 0.82, 95%CI 0.63 to 1.09), in surgical interventions (RR=0.97, 95%CI 0.74 to 1.26), and in the incidence of nonpancreatic infections (RR=0.73, 95%CI 0.48 to 1.10). Conclusion Antibiotic prophylaxis for SAP does not reduce mortality, infected necrosis, or surgical intervention.
In recent years, the incidence of hyperlipidemia acute pancreatitis (HLAP) has been increasing year by year, but its pathogenesis has not been completely clear. There are many clinical treatment methods for HLAP, such as lipid-lowering drugs, low molecular weight heparin, insulin, and plasma exchange. Actively reducing serum triglyceride is the core of treatment. Plasma exchange can quickly and effectively reduce the level of triglyceride, and its application in the treatment of HLAP is gradually increasing. This article reviews the recent advances in the pathogenesis, clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of HLAP, focusing on the mechanism, indications, timing, and disadvantages of plasma exchange therapy for HLAP.
ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of liver capillary permeability in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). MethodsTotally 40 healthy Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into two groups: sham operation (SO) group and SAP group, SAP group were divided into four subgroups according to sampling time (3 h， 6 h, 12 h， and 24 h). The model was established by injecting 5% sodium taurocholate retrogradely into pancreaticobiliary ducts. The changes of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), pathohistology, and tissue moisture content were compared among different groups. Liver occludin protein expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry method, and occludin mRNA was measured by RT-PCR. ResultsThere was no significant pathological changes of liver tissue in the SO group. Typical pathological changes of SAP， such as interstitial edema, vasodilatation, infiltration of inflammatory cells, were found in the SAP group. TNF-α level and tissue moisture content of each phase increased gradually, and the highest level appeared at 24 h within the observing period. The two above indicators at different time point in subgroups were significantly different from each other and higher than those in the SO group (Plt;0.05)． In the SAP group, the expression of occludin and it’s mRNA began to decrease at 3 h to the bottom at 6 h and rebounced significantly at 12 h, 24 h compared with those at 6 h (Plt;0.05), but still lower than those in the SO group (Plt;0.05). ConclusionUpregulation in TNF-α and subsequent downregulation in occludin protein and mRNA maybe bly related to the severe liver capillary permeability in rats with SAP.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapic efficacy for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) during different periods. MethodsAccording to internalized standard, 234 patients with SAP admitted to this hospital from January 1986 to October 2009 were included, which were divided into two stages based on the time of admitting to this hospital. The first stage named prior operation group was from January 1986 to August 1998 (n=117), the second stage named individual treatment group was from September 1998 to October 2009 (n=117). There was comparability in demography and clinic between two groups. The prior operation group primarily underwent laparotomy and medication, and the individual treatment group underwent multiple combined therapies. These indexes were compared between two groups: hospital stay, cure rate, and mortality; the incidences of pancreatic pseudocyst, pancreatic and peripancreatic abscess, pancreatic encephalopathy, cardiac insufficiency, acute renal failure (ARF), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and shock. The efficacies for early treatment, ascites, biliary pancreatitis, and pancreatic and peripancreatic complications were compared two groups by stratified analysis. ResultsCompared with the prior operation group, the hospital stay was shorter (Plt;0.05), cure rate was higher (Plt;0.001), and mortality was lower in the individual treatment group (Plt;0.001). During the treatments, the incidences of pancreatic pseudocyst, pancreatic and peripancreatic abscess, pancreatic encephalopathy, cardiac insufficiency, ARF, ARDS, and shock in the individual treatment group were lower than those in the prior operation group (Plt;0.05). According to the stratified analysis, the efficacies for early treatment, ascites, biliary pancreatitis, and pancreatic and peripancreatic complications in the individual treatment group were better than those in the prior operation group (Plt;0.001). ConclusionIn recent years, the change of therapeutic mode significantly improves the treatment efficacy for SAP.
ObjectiveTo explore the risk factors which affect the severity of acute pancreatitis by using machine learning algorithms. MethodsA retrospective review was conducted of medical records from 262 patients hospitalized for acute pancreatitis at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between October 2022 and February 2024. Patients were classified according to the revised edition Atlanta Classification into mild cases (n=146) and non-mild cases (n=116). LASSO analysis was employed to identify predictors for non-mild acute pancreatitis. Six machine learning algorithms, including extreme gradient boosting, random forest, logistic regression, decision tree, support vector machine, and K-nearest neighbors were integrated to construct predictive models. Model performance was evaluated by comparing the following metrics: area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, F1 score, calibration curves, and decision curves. ResultsThrough LASSO regression analysis, six feature variables, including heart rate, white blood cell count, neutrophil count, C-reactive protein, albumin, and calcium ion were selected to train and test machine learning models. Results showed that extreme gradient boosting achieved the highest AUC value of 0.93 on the test set, making it the optimal model. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, Brier score, and F1 score of the extreme gradient boosting model were 0.97, 0.70, 0.85, 0.108, and 0.84. ConclusionThe prediction model developed using extreme gradient boosting has high clinical utility value, helps to predict the severity of acute pancreatitis at an early stage and is valuable in guiding clinical decision-making.

Objective To observe the influence of resveratrol on superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) of intestinal mucosal ischemia-reperfusion injury protection in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Fifty-four rats were divided into three groups randomly: sham operation group (SO group), SAP model group (SAP group) and resveratrol-treated group (Res group). SAP model was made by injecting sodium taurocholate 50 mg/kg to pancreatic bile duct and resveratrol was given intravenously at 5 min after inducing SAP model. The rats were sacrificed at 3 h, 6 h and 12 h after inducing SAP model respectively by equal number. The levels of MDA, SOD, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 and histological changes of small intestine were measured. Results The level of MDA in small intestine tissue in SAP group was significantly higher than that in SO group (P＜0.05), while the activity of SOD was significantly lower in the relevant tissues (P＜0.05). The expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in SAP group were higher than those of SO group (P＜0.05). The activity of SOD in small intestine tissue in Res group was significantly higher than that in SAP group (P＜0.05); while the level of MDA was significantly lower in the relevant tissues (P＜0.05). The expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in Res group were lower than those of SAP group (P＜0.05). Conclusions Oxygen free radicals are concerned with the process of pathological changes in intestinal mucosal ischemia-reperfusion in rats with SAP. Resveratrol might increase SOD activity and decrease MDA level to attenuate lipid peroxidation in small intestine of SAP, and reduce the expressions of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in intestine, thus diminish the damage of the intestine in SAP. And it acts as a protective effect to small intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury.
