Objective:To analyze the clinical features, prognosis and risk factors of SARS-CoV-2 associated acute pancreatitis (SAAP), and provide a basis for early prevention and treatment of SAAP.Methods:Patients with coronavirus disease 19 infection (COVID-19) admitted to Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from December 1, 2022 to January 31, 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical characteristics such as age, gender and other data were recorded, and the indexes of blood routine, liver and kidney function, inflammatory factor, coagulation function, blood gas analysis, immunoglobulin and complement were collected after admission. Patients were divided into pancreatic injury group and non-pancreatic injury group according to the level of serum amylase/lipase. The difference of prognosis and related hematological parameters between the two groups was compared. Multifactorial logistic regression equation was constructed to analyze the risk factors of SAAP.Results:A total of 2 101 patients with COVID-19 who met the criteria were included, including 298 patients in the pancreatic injury group and 1 803 patients in the non-pancreatic injury group. 17 cases (5.7%) in the pancreatic injury group met the diagnostic criteria for AP. The age, male percentage and mortality rate of the pancreatic injury group were all significantly higher than those of the non-pancreatic injury group (all P<0.05). In the pancreatic injury group, white blood cell count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, C-reactive protein (CRP), calcitoninogen, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, inflammatory cytokines, tumour necrosis factor, liver and kidney functions, coagulation (D-dimer and plasma fibrinogen degradation products), and lactate level were significantly higher than those in the non-pancreatic injury group (all P<0.05). Serum complement C3, albumin, albumin globule ratio and arterial oxygenation index were lower in the pancreatic injury group (all P<0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, CRP, calcitoninogen, total bilirubin, creatinine, PaO 2, PaO 2/FiO 2 and lactate were independent risk factors for the occurrence of pancreatic injury in patients with COVID-19 (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Inflammation-related markers, D-dimer and fibrinogen degradation products were significantly higher in COVID-19 patients comorbid with pancreatic injury than in the patients without pancreatic injury. The risk of SAAP was significantly higher in male patients of senior age. Sex, age, CRP, calcitoninogen, total bilirubin, creatinine, oxygenation index, and lactic acid were independent risk factors for the onset of pancreatic injury in COVID-19 patients.
