Pathobiology of Alcoholic Pancreatitis

Abstract

This paper provides a summary of the effects of alcohol abuse on the pathobiologic responses that occur during acute and chronic pancreatitis considering both the human disease and animal/tissue models. The effects are multiple and include ones on cell death leading to necrosis; on inflammation resulting in a sensitized response to pancreatic stress; and fibrosis through effects of ethanol on pancreatic stellate cells and the plasminogen system. Although the effects of alcohol are multiple and complex, it is likely that a combination of a few key effects on these pathobiologic responses drive the increased sensitivity of the pancreas to acute pancreatitis with pancreatic stress and the promotion of chronic pancreatitis with pancreatic injury occurring during acute pancreatitis.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • In chronic pancreatitis, metabolism of alcohol leads to production of reactive oxygen species and fatty acid ethyl esters that activate stellate cells and damage acinar cells of the pancreas.

    “Specifically, in chronic pancreatitis, metabolism of alcohol leads to production of reactive oxygen species 304 and fatty acid ethyl esters 305, 306 that activate stellate cells and damage acinar cells of the pancreas.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
