Background: The incidence of hypertriglyceridemia-associated acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) has been increasing recently. Plasmapheresis can effectively remove triglyceride(TG) from plasma, but its clinical value in HTG-AP is unclear due to the lack of solid evidence…

For training deep learning algorithms in medical imaging, application-specific data is often scarce…

Diabetes mellitus (DM) and prediabetes are common complications of acute pancreatitis (AP) and have aroused general concern in recent years. The underlying mechanisms need to be addressed…

Lack of an accurate prognostic tool for acute pancreatitis (AP) remains a critical knowledge gap. Machine learning (ML) techniques have been used to develop high-performing prognostic models in AP. However, methodologic quality has received little attention…

BACKGROUND & AIMS: Differentiating pancreas cyst subtype is a fundamental step to develop management for patients with incidental pancreatic cystic lesions (PCL), but current standard of care has suboptimal accuracy…

Background: Cyst fluid glucose (CFG) is increasingly being used in the differentiation of pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs)…

BACKGROUND: Exocrine Pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) occurs following acute pancreatitis (AP) at variably reported rates, secondary to combination of suspected impairment in pancreatic enzyme secretion and damage to the pancreatic acinar cells…

EUS-guided needle-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (EUS-nCLE) can effectively differentiate high-grade dysplasia/adenocarcinoma (HGD-Ca) in branch duct (BD) intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (BD-IPMNs)…
