Biochemical markers of acute pancreatitis.
Serum amylase remains the most commonly used biochemical marker for the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis, but its sensitivity can be reduced by late presentation, hypertriglyceridaemia, and chronic alcoholism. Urinary trypsinogen-2 is convenient, of comparable diagnostic accuracy, and provides greater (99%) negative predictive value. Early prediction of the severity of acute pancreatitis can be ...
متن کاملThe Predictivity of Serum Biochemical Markers in Acute Biliary Pancreatitis
Background and Aim. There are no accurate methods of differentiating acute biliary pancreatitis. Obstructions of biliary ducts, idiopathic pancreatitis may be related with biliary origin which needs identification for acute treatment. We searched for the predictivity of biochemical markers in early acute biliary pancreatitis. Patients and Methods. Serum levels of AST (Aspartate Transaminase),AL...
متن کاملBiochemical changes in a porcine model of acute pancreatitis.
Pancreatitis was induced in 11 miniature pigs by infusing a bile salt-trypsin solution into the pancreatic duct. Seven animals served as sham-operated controls. Serum ionized calcium, total calcium, albumin, total protein, inorganic phosphorus, urea nitrogen, magnesium, insulin, glucagon, and hematocrit were determined every six to 12 h over a period of one week in both test and control animals...
متن کاملBiochemical Aspects of Pancreatitis **
In its acute forms, pancreatitis is a severe and frequently fatal disease, characterized biochemically by intrapancreatic activation of very powerful digestive enzymes.'0 The activation of these enzymes results in hydrolytic cleavage of cellular structures followed by generalized pancreatic necrosis, peritonitis, and vasomotor collapse."'8 In its chronic forms, pancreatitis is a disabling disea...
متن کاملAcute Pancreatitis (AP) and Dietary Habbits
Inflammation of pancreatic parenchyma is said to be pancreatitis. It can be acute, presenting as emergency with short history or chronic as a continuation of acute with a long history. Autodigestion is responsible for pancreatitis on background of premature activation of pancreatic enzymes within the pancreas. Acute Pancreatitis is acute inflammation of the pancrease which can be mild to modera...
