Abstract:
Objective To explore the risk factors for recurrence of hyperlipidemic pancreatitis (HLAP), and establish a predictive model for HLAP recurrence.
Methods The clinical data of 114 patients diagnosed with HLAP in the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University from July 2020 to August 2023 were retrospectively collected, and divided into the recurrence group and non-recurrence group. The recurrence rates and recurrence triggers in the recurrence group within 3–6 months, 6–12 months and over 1 year were analyzed, and the risk factors for HLAP recurrence were screened. A logistic regression prediction model was constructed, and a nomogram was drawn. The ROC curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of risk factors for recurrence in patients with HLAP.
Results Among 114 patients with HLAP, 43 cases relapsed, with a recurrence rate of 37.7%. The recurrence rates at 3–6 months, 6–12 months, and over 1 year after discharge were 11.4%, 18.4%and 7.9%, respectively. The main triggers for recurrence included the greasy diet, overeating, drinking alcohol and catching a cold. The results of univariate analysis showed that the differences of the effects of body mass index of patients, hospital stay, diabetes, fatty liver, triglycerides, total cholesterol, glucose, uric acid, creatinine and C-reactive protein on the recurrence of HLAP levels were statistically significant (P < 0.01). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the diabetes, fatty liver, triglycerides, uric acid and hospital stay were the independent risk factors affecting the recurrence of HLAP patients (P < 0.01). A nomogram prediction model for the recurrence risk of HLAP was constructed by using diabetes, fatty liver, triglycerides, uric acid and hospital stay. The AUC for predicting recurrence in HLAP patients verified by the ROC curve were 0.794 (95%CI: 0.718–0.871), 0.761 (95%CI: 0.692–0.830) and 0.815 (95%CI), respectively. The AUC for the combined prediction of recurrence in HLAP patients by five risk factors was 0.988 (95%CI: 0.792–1.000), with a sensitivity of 95.35% and a specificity of 97.18%.
Conclusions This study can provide the relevant clinical evidence for the prevention and management of HLAP recurrence through risk factor analysis and predictive model construction.
