Abstract
Background: This study examines the role and effectiveness of double filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) in managing hyperlipidemiclipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP).
Methods: Comparative analysis was conducted between two groups: one treated with DFPP and one without. Comparative parameters included blood lipid levels, inflammatory factors, vital signs, disease severity scores, and complication rates.
Results: A total of 97 HLAP patients were included in the study. Within-group analysis revealed significant pre- and post-treatment changes in total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil percentage (N%), systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), mean arterial pressure (MAP), bedside index for severity in acute pancreatitis (BISAP), and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II (APACHE II) scores in the DFPP group (P < 0.05). In contrast, the without DFPP group showed significant changes in TC, TG, LDL-C, WBC, N%, SII, systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), panimmune-inflammation value (PIV), respiration rate (RR), and APACHE II scores (P < 0.05). Significant differences in TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, and RR were found between the DFPP and without DFPP groups (P < 0.05). The DFPP group exhibited greater reductions in TG levels and more individual variability. In terms of complications, the rate of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) differed significantly between the groups (P < 0.05).
Conclusions: DFPP can significantly improve short-term outcomes, reduce lipid levels, and reduce the incidence of complications such as SIRS in HLAP patients compared with those not receiving DFPP treatment. The clinical utility of DFPP is considerable, and further exploration and implementation of this method are warranted.
期刊介绍:
Lipids in Health and Disease is an open access, peer-reviewed, journal that publishes articles on all aspects of lipids: their biochemistry, pharmacology, toxicology, role in health and disease, and the synthesis of new lipid compounds.
Lipids in Health and Disease is aimed at all scientists, health professionals and physicians interested in the area of lipids. Lipids are defined here in their broadest sense, to include: cholesterol, essential fatty acids, saturated fatty acids, phospholipids, inositol lipids, second messenger lipids, enzymes and synthetic machinery that is involved in the metabolism of various lipids in the cells and tissues, and also various aspects of lipid transport, etc. In addition, the journal also publishes research that investigates and defines the role of lipids in various physiological processes, pathology and disease. In particular, the journal aims to bridge the gap between the bench and the clinic by publishing articles that are particularly relevant to human diseases and the role of lipids in the management of various diseases.
