Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an inflammatory disease characterized by the premature activation of trypsinogen. Mild acute pancreatitis is self-limiting; however, approximately 15-20% of patients progress to severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), which is associated with pancreatic tissue necrosis, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, organ failure, and a mortality rate of up to 30%. Obesity, a growing global public health concern with increasing yearly incidence worldwide, is an established independent risk factor for the development and exacerbation of AP. This review provides a comprehensive summary of the impact of obesity on the increased risk, occurrence, and progression of AP.
期刊介绍:
Obesity Reviews is a monthly journal publishing reviews on all disciplines related to obesity and its comorbidities. This includes basic and behavioral sciences, clinical treatment and outcomes, epidemiology, prevention and public health. The journal should, therefore, appeal to all professionals with an interest in obesity and its comorbidities.
Review types may include systematic narrative reviews, quantitative meta-analyses and narrative reviews but all must offer new insights, critical or novel perspectives that will enhance the state of knowledge in the field.
The editorial policy is to publish high quality peer-reviewed manuscripts that provide needed new insight into all aspects of obesity and its related comorbidities while minimizing the period between submission and publication.
