The role of comorbid hypertriglyceridemia and abdominal obesity in the severity of acute pancreatitis: a retrospective study
Abstract Background The effect of comorbid hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) and abdominal obesity (AO) on acute pancreatitis (AP) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of comorbid HTG and AO and discuss which is the dominant disorder. Methods In this study, 1219 AP patients who...

| Sumario: | Abstract Background The effect of comorbid hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) and abdominal obesity (AO) on acute pancreatitis (AP) remains unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of comorbid HTG and AO and discuss which is the dominant disorder. Methods In this study, 1219 AP patients who presented with HTG or AO were stratified into four groups: non-HTG + non-AO, HTG + non-AO, non-HTG + AO, and HTG + AO. Results The 328 patients with comorbid HTG + AO were much younger (42.29 ± 11.77), mainly male (79.57%), and had higher TG levels, larger waist circumferences, and more past medical histories than the patients in the other three non-comorbid groups (P < 0.001). The comorbidity group developed more incidences of persistent organ failure and local complications (P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that AO (OR = 3.205, 95% CI = 1.570–6.544), mild HTG (OR = 2.746, 95% CI = 1.125–6.701), and moderate to very severe HTG (OR = 3.649, 95% CI = 1.403–9.493) were independent risk factors for persistent respiratory failure (P < 0.05). Age > 60 years (OR = 1.326, 95% CI = 1.047–1.679), AO (OR = 1.701, 95% CI = 1.308–2.212), diabetes mellitus (OR = 1.551, 95% CI = 1.063–2.261), mild HTG (OR = 1.549, 95% CI = 1.137–2.112), and moderate to very severe HTG (OR = 2.810, 95% CI = 1.926–4.100) were independent risk factors associated with local complications (P < 0.05). Moreover, HTG seemed to be more dangerous than AO. The higher the serum TG level was, the greater the likelihood of persistent respiratory failure and local complications. Conclusions Comorbid HTG and AO will aggravate the severity and increase the incidence of local complications of AP. HTG may play a dominant role of risk in the condition of comorbidity.
