Six dogs of the group 2 survived and no necrotizing changes were observed 30 or 50 d after the induction of pancreatitis. Three dogs of the group 3 survived, but slight necrotizing lesions were found at the autopsy. The survival rate was higher in dogs with peritoneal lavage (p = 0.0129)...
On the first postoperative day, the amylase level and the amount of peritoneal exudate were high in all groups. The dogs of the pancreatogastrostomized group showed a dramatic decrease of the exudate and the most advantageous temporal course of the blood amylase level. The survival rate ...
In general, there are two types of pancreatitis: acute pancreatitis (AP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP). Considering that IL-22 is a well-documented survival factor for hepatocytes and liver cancer cells [36], and pancreatic acinar cells express high levels of the IL-22 receptor subunit IL-22...
development of complications. Basic therapy should include relief of pain, total fasting, nasogastric suction, parenteral replacement of fluids, electrolytes, albumin and blood, and antibiotics. Hyperglycaemia should be corrected and heparin should be given in cases of disseminated intravascular coagulation....
In an early study in dogs, Ragins et al[55] demonstrated that intragastric delivery of nutrients (Vivonex) caused an increase in the volume, and protein content, and bicarbonate content of pancreatic secretions compared with th...
If patients could be successfully treated during the initial phases of the disease, with a higher survival rate, there is a high probability of returning to a productive life. Soran, et al., supra. Pancreatitis may be associated with a number of etiologies including chronic alcoholism or gall...
The dogs were then divided into two groups: group A (nontreatment), no treatment during the experiment, and group B (IS-741), intravenously injected with IS-741 at 6 and 30 h after induction of acute pancreatitis. As a result, the survival rate was significantly higher in group B than ...
These findings suggest that pancreatic duct occlusion causing the exocrine secretion to stop may have beneficial effects in the treatment of acute fulminant pancreatitis in the acute phase and may improve the survival rate.doi:10.1016/0022-4804(83)90056-2R.J.A. Estourgie...
On the first postoperative day, the amylase level and the amount of peritoneal exudate were high in all groups. The dogs of the pancreatogastrostomized group showed a dramatic decrease of the exudate and the most advantageous temporal course of the blood amylase level. The survival rate ...
Thus, maintaining pancreatic blood flow and increasing the oxygen transport by Fluosol DA administration seemed to play a positive role in inhibiting the progress of pancreatitis, though improvement of survival rate in acute pancreatitis was incomplete by Fluosol DA administration alone.Harumasa...
