Abstract Background/Objectives Acute pancreatitis is complicated by local and systemic
complications in 20–30% of the patients. Accurate prediction of severity may be important for …

Acute pancreatitis is a potentially life threatening disease. The spectrum of severity of the
illness ranges from mild self‐limiting disease to a highly fatal severe necrotizing pancreatitis …

Background: A large array of parameters has been proposed for the biochemical
stratification of severity and prediction of complications in acute pancreatitis. However, the …

The assessment of the severity of acute pancreatitis (AP) is a critical early step in its
management, as severity of AP predicts prognosis. A range of options are available for …

Background: The main problem in staging acute pancreatitis is the lack of accurate
predictors of disease severity and of markers for progression of acute pancreatitis. Methods …

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a severe inflammation of the pancreas presented with sudden
onset and severe abdominal pain with a high morbidity and mortality rate, if accompanied by …

Abstract Background Using revised Atlanta classification defined outcomes, we compare
