Diabetes and Acute Pancreatitis
A recent review of the literature (2014) and meta-analysis was carried out at the University of Auckland in New Zealand. The researchers looked at 24 prospective studies with a total of 1,102 patients that had experienced Acute pancreatitis (AP). After experiencing AP, a total of 37% of the individuals developed pre-diabetes or diabetes. Sixteen percent of the people that developed diabetes needed insulin after experiencing AP. It was shown that a diagnosis of AP will increase the risk of diabetes in individuals by more than “twofold” over 5 years. The researchers conclude that studies need to take place to see how this risk can be lowered.
