© 2019 IAP and EPC Background: Pancreatic calcifications is a common finding in patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP), but the underlying pathophysiology is incompletely understood. Past studies for risk factors of calcifications have generally been focused on single parameters or limited by small sample sizes. The aim of this study was to explore several patient and disease characteristics and their associations with pancreatic calcifications in a large cohort of CP patients with diverse aetiological risk factors. Methods: This was a multicentre, cross-sectional study including 1509 patients with CP. Patient and disease characteristics were compared for patients with calcifications (n = 912) vs. without calcifications (n = 597). Multivariable logistic regression was performed to assess the parameters independently associated with calcifications. Results: The mean age of patients was 53.9 ± 14.5 years and 1006 (67%) were men. The prevalence of calcifications was 60.4% in the overall patient cohort, but highly variable between patients with different aetiological risk factors (range: 2–69%). On multivariate analysis, alcoholic aetiology (OR 1.76 [95% CI, 1.39–2.24]; p < 0.001) and smoking aetiology (OR 1.77 [95% CI, 1.39–2.26], p < 0.001) were positively associated with the presence of calcifications, while an autoimmune aetiology was negatively associated with calcifications (OR 0.15 [95% CI, 0.08–0.27], p < 0.001). Patients with pancreatic calcifications were more likely to have undergone pancreatic duct stenting (OR 1.59 [95%CI, 1.16–2.19], p = 0.004). Conclusion: The presence of pancreatic calcifications is associated with diverse aetiological risk factors in patients with CP. This observation attest to the understanding of CP as a complex disease and may have implications for disease classification.

AIM: To develop and justify optimal nutritional support in early phase of acute pancreatitis (AP).MATERIAL AND METHODS: 140 AP patients were enrolled. They were divided into groups depending on nutritional support: group I (n=70) - early enteral tube feeding (ETF) with balanced mixtures, group II (n=30) - early ETF with oligopeptide mixture, group III (n=40) - total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The subgroups were also isolated depending on medication: A - Octreotide, B - Quamatel, C - Octreotide + Quamatel. Pancreatic secretion was evaluated by using of course of disease, instrumental methods, APUD-system hormone levels (secretin, cholecystokinin, somatostatin, vasointestinal peptide).RESULTS: ETF was followed by pancreas enlargement despite ongoing therapy, while TPN led to gradual reduction of pancreatic size up to normal values. α-amylase level progressively decreased in all groups, however in patients who underwent ETF (I and II) mean values of the enzyme were significantly higher compared with TPN (group III). Secretin, cholecystokinin and vasointestinal peptide were increasing in most cases, while the level of somatostatin was below normal in all groups.CONCLUSION: Enteral tube feeding (balanced and oligopeptide mixtures) contributes to pancreatic secretion compared with TPN, but this negative impact is eliminated by antisecretory therapy. Dual medication (Octreotide + Quamatel) is more preferable than monotherapy (Octreotide or Quamatel).

Study of pancreatitis remains a topical theme also for the paediatric cohort, especially taking into account practically similar morbidity rates in adults and children. The review presents information and analyzes main genetic risk factors of the development of pancreatitis. Mutations and polymorphisms of the CFTR, CTRC, SPINK1, CPA1, PRSS1, PRSS2 genes that are significant for functioning of the pancreas are discussed in detail. Examples of genetic variants associated with increased or decreased risks of developing disease are given. Special attention is paid to difficulties of interpreting the results of molecular-genetic testing associated with certain gene homology, presence of pseudogenes and disease cases conditioned by spontaneous mutation. Detection of genetic risk factors of chronic pancreatitis allows to early prevent the development of disease in the proband’s relatives, and also to take a more personalized approach to the patient’s treatment.

The article reflects the main positions of the latest Russian and pan-European clinical recommendations on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic pancreatitis (CP), devoted to the pharmacotherapy of this disease. The main objectives of pharmacotherapy for CP are to reduce or arrest pain abdominal syndrome and prevent or compensate for functional pancreatic insufficiency.
