ResultsThe cytokines had a chain effect, and influenced each other when severe acute pancreatitis with lung injury attacked. ConclusionsRelated cytokines play important roles in severe acute pancreatitis associated lung injury. Researching the related cytokines will contribute to the diagnosis and treatment for severe acute pancreatitis with lung injury.
In order to observe activity of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in the serum, pancreatic histopathological damage, as well as their relationships in acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP), thirty five SD rats were randomly divided into 7 groups according to their sampling time with 5 in each group. ANP was induced by retrograde infusion of 5% sodium taurocholate through biliopancreatic duct in 6 experimental groups (Group B1～B6).Blood and pancreatic tissue samples were obtained at hour 0,0.5,2,4,6 or 8 respectively when the animals were sacrificed.Results showed that serum level of TNF activity rose significantly in Group B2,and reached the maximal value in Group B4.The pancreatic histopathological damage in ANP rats was getting worse along with time. Serum TNF activity had close relation to pancreatic histopathological score (r=0.63, Ｐ＜0.01),suggesting that serum TNF may play an important role in the process of deterioration of pancreatic tissue damage during ANP.
ObjectiveTo summary the effect of parenteral nutrition combined with enteral nutrition on patients with severe acute pancreatitis. MethodsThe clinical data of 200 patients with severe acute pancreatitis admitted in our hospital in recent 10 years were retrospectively analyzed. Of which 88 cases were treated by traditional nutritional support therapy (traditional nutrition group), the rest of 112 cases of patients with early parenteral nutrition to later period gradually combined with enteral nutrition comprehensive nutritional support strategy (comprehensive nutrition group). ResultsThe APACHEⅡscores and serum level of C-reactive protein (CRP) of patients in comprehensive nutrition group were significantly lower than patients in traditional nutrition group (P < 0.05), while the serum albumin level was significantly higher than that of traditional nutrition group (P < 0.05). In the incidence of complications and mortality, the average length of stay and total cost of comprehensive nutrition group were significantly lower than patients with traditional nutrition group (P < 0.05), the cure rate was significantly higher than that of traditional nutrition group (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe combination of parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition of nutrition support model not only can shorten the duration of symptoms but also alleviate the burden of patients and reduce complications and mortality.
ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between blood glucose variability index and persistent organ failure (POF) in acute pancreatitis (AP). MethodsWe prospectively included those patients who were diagnosed with AP with hyperglycemia and were hospitalized in the West China Center of Excellence for Pancreatitis of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from July 2019 to November 2021. The patients were given blood glucose monitoring at least 4 times a day for at least 3 consecutive days. The predictive value of blood glucose variability index for POF in patients with AP was analyzed. ResultsA total of 559 patients with AP were included, including 95 cases of POF. Comparing with those without POF, patients with AP complicated by POF had higher levels of admission glucose (11.0 mmol/L vs. 9.6 mmol/L), minimum blood glucose (6.8 mmol/L vs. 5.8 mmol/L), mean blood glucose (9.6 mmol/L vs. 8.7 mmol/L), and lower level of coefficient of variation of blood glucose (16.6 % vs. 19.0 %), P<0.05. Logistic regression analyses after adjustment for confounding factors showed that the risk of POF increased with the increase of admission glucose [OR=1.11, 95%CI (1.04, 1.19), P=0.002], minimum blood glucose [OR=1.28, 95%CI (1.10, 1.48), P=0.001] and mean blood glucose [OR=1.18, 95%CI (1.04, 1.33), P=0.010]; with the higher level of coefficient of variation of blood glucose [OR=0.95, 95%CI (0.92, 0.99), P=0.021], the risk of POF decreased. The results of area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operator curves showed that AG [AUC=0.787, 95%CI (0.735, 0.840)] had the highest accuracy in predicting POF, with sensitivities of 60.0% and specificities of 84.7%. ConclusionHigh admission glucose, minimum blood glucose, mean blood glucose, and low coefficient of variation of blood glucose were risk factors for the development of POF in patients with hyperglycemic AP on admission.
ObjectiveTo explore the correlation of serum lipocalin-2 (LCN2) with inflammation and the predictive value of LCN2 for detecting acute kidney injury (AKI) in acute pancreatitis (AP).MethodsNighty-one patients with AP, who were admitted to Bazhong Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine between June 2016 and June 2018, were enrolled in the present study. Clinical paramaters were analyzed between patients with AKI (n=29) and patients without AKI (n=62). The correlation of serum LCN2 with inflammation was assessed with Pearson’s correlation analysis. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC AUC) for serum LCN2 predicting AKI in AP patients was assessed.ResultsCompared with the patients without AKI, the patients with AKI showed increased serum levels of C-reactive protein [(64.8±10.5) vs. (148.3±21.6) mg/L], procalcitonin [(3.5±2.3) vs. (4.8±3.9) μg/L], urea nitrogen [(5.5±2.1) vs. (6.6±2.8) mmol/L], creatinine [(80.3±28.1) vs. (107.3±30.8) μmol/L], interleukin-6 [(10.1±3.7) vs. (16.2±4.6) pg/mL], and LCN2 [(155.0±37.6) vs. (394.8±53.1) mg/mL], as well as decreased level of calcium [(2.6±1.3) vs. (2.0±1.0) mmol/L], the differences were all statistically significant (P<0.05). The serum level of LCN2 was correlated with C-reactive protein (r=0.694, P<0.05), interleukin-6 (r=0.762, P<0.05), and procalcitonin (r=0.555, P<0.05) in patients with AP. The ROC AUC of LCN2 for predicting AKI was 0.844 (P<0.05) , with a sensitivity of 81.3% and a specificity of 81.4% when the cut-off value was 210.2 ng/mL.ConclusionsSerum LCN2 concentration is elevated in patients with AKI. In patients with AP, serum LCN2 level is positively correlated with C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and procalcitonin. It can be regarded as a reliable indicator for predicting AKI.
Objective To explore the protective effect of rapamycin on brain tissues injury in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and its possible mechanism in experimental rats. Methods Ninety SPF males SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups by random envelope opening method: sham operation group (SO group), SAP group, and rapamycin group (RAPA group), then the rats of each group were divided into 24 h, 36 h, and 48 h 3 subgroups by random number table method. Rats in each group underwent laparotomy, the model was prepared by retrograde injection of solutions into biliopancreatic duct, rat of the SO group was injected with 0.9% normal saline (2 mL/kg), rats of the SAP group and the RAPA group were injected with 5% sodium taurocholate solution (2 mL/kg), but rat of the RAPA group was injected with rapamycin (1 mg/kg) at 30 min before narcosis. All survival rats in each subgroup were killed at 24 h, 36 h, and 48 h respectively, then the pancreas and brain tissues of rats were collected, pancreas and brain tissues were stained by hematoxylin-eosin staining, brain tissues were stained by Luxol fast blue additionally, pathological changes of brain tissues were scored under light microscope. The protective effect of rapamycin on brain tissues injury was determined by comparing the differences in the degree of brain tissues among 3 groups. The phosphorylated mammaliantarget of rapamycin (p-mTOR) and phosphorylated ribosomal 40S small subunitS6 protein kinase (p-S6K1) expression levels in brain tissues were detected by Western blot. In addition, the correlations between the expression levels of p-mTOR and p-S6K1 in brain tissues and the degree of brain tissues injury were analyzed to further explore the possible mechanism of rapamycin’s protective effect on brain tissues injury in SAP. Results① At the point of 24 h, 36 h, and 48 h, the order of the relative expression levels of p-mTOR and p-S6K1 in brain tissues of three groups were all as follows: the SO group < the RAPA group < the SAP group (P<0.05). ② At the point of 24 h, 36 h, and 48 h, the order of brain histological score in three groups were all as follows: the SO group < the RAPA group < the SAP group (P<0.05). ③ The relative expression levels of p-mTOR and p-S6K1 in brain tissues were positively correlated with pathological scores of brain tissues (r=0.99, P<0.01; r=0.97, P<0.01). ConclusionRapamycin plays a protective role in pancreatic brain tissues injure by down-regulating the expression levels of p-mTOR and p-S6K1 in mTOR signaling pathway.
Objective To explore and summarize the application of minimally invasive technique to every stage of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods The treatment of 101 SAP patients admitted to our hospital between January 1995 and December 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. After calculi were removed by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatograpy (ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST), endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) were applied, then rhubarb liquid was perfused into gut with a nutrient canal and ultrasound-guided abdominal drainage tube were simultaneously placed at the early stage. Some patients received continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) at the same time. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) was performed at the subacute stage, and choledochoscope was introduced to remove parapancreatic necrotic tissues at the late stage of SAP.Results Of all the 101 cases treated by the method mentioned above, 75 cases received ERCP (or EST) and ENBD, and 31 cases underwent rhubarb liquid perfusion with a nutrient canal. Eight cases underwent continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT). Forty-eight cases underwent LC and ultrasoundguided abdominal drainage. Thirtysix cases with infected peripancreatic tissue or abscess underwent debridement under choledochoscope 3 to 14 times at the later stage. Five cases died of multiple organ failure (MOF) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The hemobilia ocurred in 2 patients during choledochoscopy and was cured under direct visualization by electric coagulation. Intestinal fistula happened in 3 cases and cured by drainage. Pancreatic pseudocyst was latterly seen in 3 cases and treated by the anastomosis of cyst with jejunum through selective operation. After the hospitalization of 9-132 d (mean 24 d), 96 cases completely recovered. Conclusion Timely application of minimally invasive technique to every stage of SAP can avoid the defects of traditional operations, decrease the injury and interference to the maximum, and raise the cure rate.
ObjectiveTo understand the current progress of programmed cell death in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis, and to provide reference for the pathogenesis and treatment of acute pancreatitis.MethodThe research progress of acute pancreatitis and programmed cell death in recent years was reviewed by reading relevant literatures at home and abroad in recent years.ResultsProgrammed cell death was defined as controlled cell death performed by intracellular procedures, including apoptosis, autophagy, programmed necrosis, and coronation. The pattern of death of pancreatic acinar cells mainly includes apoptosis and programmed necrosis. Although the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis had not yet been fully clarified, it was known that through the study of programmed cell death, it could help us to understand the pathogenesis and pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis and provide more effective treatment methods.ConclusionsProgrammed cell death is very important for acute pancreatitis. The mechanism of programmed cell death in acute pancreatitis is necessary for the treatment and prevention of it.
