Age under 59 years, pancreatic channel opacification, and an absence of common bile duct stones at ERCP are all independent predictors of post-ERCP pancreatitis.

This study shows significant efficacy of INH chemoprophylaxis during RRT in preventing development of TB, when the INH was started during dialysis itself. INH chemoprophylaxis was safe and well tolerated in the majority of patients. However, mild hepatic dysfunction was common, both in the treatment as well as in the control group. As the incidence of viral hepatitis overall was high in our patients on RRT, it is difficult to identify INH-induced hepatitis in this clinical setting.
