“…Moreover, 67 patients were below 40 years of age while 42 patients were above 40 years of age with good significance (P=0.01). It shows idiopathic acute pancreatitis is more common in young age which is consistent with previous studies (Elzouki et al, 2019).In foregone studies, among the patients of idiopathic acute pancreatitis about 20-50% presented with microlithiasis (Liu et al, 2000;Ros et al, 1991;Dill & Dill, 2002;Lee & Nicholls, 1986;Levy, 2002) , 15% with chronic pancreatitis (Wilcox & Kilgore, 2009), 25% with common bile duct stone (Choudhary et al, 2016) and about 3.2% with pancreatic cancer (Tandon & Topazian, 2001). Our study almost resembled those previously found data.…”

“…Although incidence of all 10 overlapping studies were reported alongside all other studies in the tables, only 4 were included in the meta-analyses and figures. 3,[30][31][32] In total, 44 studies, from the following regions, met our inclusion criteria: Europe (n ¼ 24 10,12,13, ), North America (n ¼ 11 3,4,9,[27][28][29][30][31][53][54][55] ), South America (n ¼ 1 56 ), Asia (n ¼ 5 [57][58][59][60][61] ), and Oceania (n ¼ 3 [62][63][64] ). The 4 studies reporting the incidence of acute pancreatitis in children exclusively were North America (n ¼ 2 54,55 ), Asia (n ¼ 1 57 ), and Oceania (n ¼ 1 63 ).…”

“…The global landscape is changing when it comes to alcohol consumption. Elzouki et al 58 reported a significant yearly decrease in the incidence of acute pancreatitis, with an AAPC of À14.3% in Qatar. The population of Qatar has been skewed with male expatriates and laborers in a primarily Muslim country where alcohol is prohibited.…”

Global Incidence of Acute Pancreatitis Is Increasing Over Time: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The global incidence of acute pancreatitis is increasing over time:A systematic review and meta-analysis• 34 studies in adults reported temporal incidence of acute pancreatitis in over time. • Incidence of acute pancreatitis has increased over time with an average annual percent change (AAPC) of 3.07%.No difference in incidence rates between women and men.AAPC of biliary and alcohol induced pancreatitis have increased but without significant differences in rate of increase. = BACKGROUND& AIMS: Acute pancreatitis is a common disease with significant associated morbidity and mortality. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of population-based studies to explore the changing temporal trends of acute pancreatitis incidence globally. METHODS: We performed a systematic literature search to identify populationbased studies reporting the annual incidence of acute pancreatitis. Abstracts were assessed independently to identify applicable articles for full-text review and data extraction. Joinpoint temporal trend analyses were performed to calculate the average annual percent change (AAPC) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The AAPCs were pooled in a metaanalysis to capture the overall and regional trends in acute pancreatitis incidence over time. Temporal data were summarized in a static map and an interactive, web-based map. RESULTS: Forty-four studies reported the temporal incidence of acute pancreatitis (online interactive map: https://kaplanacute-pancreatitis-ucalgary.hub.arcgis.com/). The incidence of acute pancreatitis has increased from 1961 to 2016 (AAPC, 3.07%; 95% CI, Q3 2.30% to 3.84%; n ¼ Q4 34). Increasing incidence was observed in North America (AAPC, 3.67%; 95% CI, 2.76% to 4.57%; n ¼ 4) and Europe (AAPC, 2.77%; 95% CI, 1.91% to 3.63%; n ¼ 23). The incidence of acute pancreatitis was stable in Asia (AAPC, -0.28%; 95% CI, -5.03% to 4.47%; n ¼ 4). CONCLUSIONS: This meta-analysis provides a comprehensive overview of the global incidence of acute pancreatitis over the last 56 years and demonstrates a steadily rising incidence over time in most countries of the Western world. More studies are needed to better define the changing incidence of acute pancreatitis in Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

“…When CTSI scores were evaluated, it was seen that majority of our patients had mild AP (0-3 points, n = 18, 72%), followed by moderate (4-6 points, n = 6, 24%) and severe (7-10 points, n = 1, 4%). Average length of hospital stay was 6 days (range, [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] and there was no mortality.…”

“…To date, there are very few reports in the literature about the incidence, etiology and clinical outcome of AP from Middle East countries in general [3]. However, the incidence seems to be similar [4]. It has also become the most common inpatient gastrointestinal diagnosis and costs an estimated 2.6 billion dollars per year in the USA [5], which is still increasing [6].…”
