Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of BISAP, Ranson's, APACHE-II, and CTSI scores in predicting organ failure, complications, and mortality in acute pancreatitis
Georgios I. Papachristou,Venkata Muddana,Dhiraj Yadav,Michael O’Connell,Michael K. Sanders,Adam Slivka,David C. Whitcomb +6 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that the BISAP score is an accurate means for risk stratification in patients with AP and simple scoring systems may have reached their maximal utility and novel models are needed to further improve predictive accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol Consumption, Cigarette Smoking, and the Risk of Recurrent Acute and Chronic Pancreatitis
Dhiraj Yadav,Robert H. Hawes,Randall E. Brand,Michelle A. Anderson,Mary E. Money,Peter A. Banks,Michele D. Bishop,John Baillie,Stuart Sherman,James A. DiSario,Frank R. Burton,Timothy B. Gardner,Stephen T. Amann,Andres Gelrud,Christopher Lawrence,Beth Elinoff,Julia B. Greer,Michael O’Connell,M. Michael Barmada,Adam Slivka,David C. Whitcomb +20 more
TL;DR: Very heavy alcohol consumption and smoking are independent risks for CP, and a minority of patients with pancreatitis currently seen at US referral centers report very heavy drinking.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of existing clinical scoring systems to predict persistent organ failure in patients with acute pancreatitis.
Rawad Mounzer,Christopher J. Langmead,Bechien U. Wu,Anna C. Evans,Faraz Bishehsari,Venkata Muddana,Vikesh K. Singh,Adam Slivka,David C. Whitcomb,Dhiraj Yadav,Peter A. Banks,Georgios I. Papachristou,Georgios I. Papachristou +12 more
TL;DR: The existing scoring systems seem to have reached their maximal efficacy in predicting persistent organ failure in acute pancreatitis, and 12 predictive rules that combined these scores to optimize predictive accuracy are developed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Two associations at genome-wide significance identified and replicated at PRSS1-PRSS2 and X-linked CLDN2 are reported and could partially explain the high frequency of alcohol-related pancreatitis in men.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single-operator cholangioscopy in patients requiring evaluation of bile duct disease or therapy of biliary stones (with videos).
