The effect of serum triglyceride levels and different lipid-lowering methods on the prognosis of hypertriglyceridemic  acute pancreatitis: a single-center 12-year retrospective study by propensity score matching

CONCLUSION: The severity of HTG-AP is not associated with the triglyceride levels at admission. However, rapid reduction of triglyceride levels can lower the incidence of local complications and respiratory failure. Compared with conservative treatment, insulin and LMWH + bezafibrate can both reduce the incidence of IPN in patients with HTG-AP.PMID:38625376 | DOI:10.1080/00365521.2024.2342406
