CHINA: According to a study published in the Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, the ratio of triglycerides to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (TG/HDL-C) is strongly linked to the severity of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HTGP) and may be used as a definitive indicator of severe HTGP.
Acute pancreatitis brought on by hyperlipidemia is becoming more common. To increase patient prognosis and lower mortality, it's critical to make a prompt and simple determination of the severity of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HTGP). As per earlier research, acute pancreatitis and insulin resistance (IR) are related.
