Abstract:
Objective To explore the change of plasma Apelin level in the patients with acute pancreatitis(AP) and its clinical significance.Methods Fifty cases of AP in the hospital from July 2015 to June 2016 were collected as the AP group and divided into the mild AP group(MAP) and severe AP group(SAP).Other contemporaneous 30 healthy volunteers undergoing physical examination were selected as the control group.The differences in Apelin-13,Apelin-36 and C reactive protein(CRP) levels on admission and were APACHE Ⅱ score were compared between the two groups.The correlation between Apelin-13 and Apelin-36 with APACHE Ⅱ score was analyzed.The differences of plasma CRP,Apelin-13 and Apelin-36 levels on 4 d after admission were compared between the MAP group and SAP group.Results Plasma Apelin-36,Apelin-36 and CRP levels and APACHE Ⅱ score on admission in the AP group were significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),plasma Apelin-13,Apelin-36 and CRP levels and APACHE Ⅱ score in the SAP group were significantly higher than those in the MAP group(P<0.05),the plasma Apelin-13 and Apelin-36 levels were positively correlated with the APACHE Ⅱ score(P<0.05);the plasma Apelin-36,Apelin-36 and CRP levelson 4 d after admission in the SAP group were higher than those in the MAP group(P<0.05).Conclusion Early stage of AP has the changes of plasma Apelin-13 and Apelin-36 levels,which are closely correlated with the severity of disease.
