Abstract

The aim of this work is to evaluate acute pancreatitis (AP) including specially role of lipid's and lipoprotein's metabolism disorders. On the ground of actually literature we take up studies to answer for the question: lipid's and lipoprotein's metabolism disorders are the cause or the effect of AP, or whether they are a phenomenon taking place independently on the disease? Our analysis indicate an immediate relation between lipid's metabolism and acute pancreatitis, but don't permit to table univocals motions. To this it's necessary removal examinations on the large and various group of patients with acute pancreatitis.

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
