Abstract:
Several epidemiological studies have assessed the associations of interleukin (IL) gene polymorphisms with acute pancreatitis (AP) in different populations. However, the results were inconclusive. Therefore, we performed the present study to comprehensively evaluate the associations of IL gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to AP. Systematic searches of the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, CNKI, CBMdisc and Google Scholar until February 27, 2013, as well as hand searching of the references of identified articles were performed. Data were extracted using standardized forms and odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of associations. All statistical analyses were performed using Stata 11.0. Ten studies were included in our final combined analysis, covering a total of 1,220 AP cases and 1,351 controls. The results showed evidence for significant association between IL-8 -251 T/A (rs4073) polymorphism and AP risk, suggesting that IL-8 -251 A allele was associated with an increased risk of AP (for A allele vs. T allele: OR = 1.36, 95 % CI 1.05-1.76, p = 0.02; for A/A vs. T/T: OR = 2.28, 95 % CI 1.08-4.81, p = 0.03; for A/A+T/A vs. T/T: OR = 1.40, 95 % CI 1.11-1.77, p = 0.005). However, there were no significant associations between IL-1β (IL-1β +3954 C/T (rs1143634) and IL-1β -511 C/T (rs16944)), IL-6 (IL-6 -174 G/C (rs1800795) and IL-6 -634 C/G (rs1800796)) and IL-10 (IL-10 -1082 A/G (rs1800896), IL-10 -819 C/T (rs1800871) and IL-10 -592 C/A (rs1800872)) gene polymorphisms and AP risk. In summary, the current study suggests that the IL-8 -251 T/A polymorphism is associated with an increased risk of AP. In addition, there were no significant associations between IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-10 gene polymorphisms and AP risk.

Chronic Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Pancreatitis is the inflammation of the pancreas, which occurs when the immune system becomes active and causes swelling, pain, and disruptions in organ function. Pancreatitis can manifest as either an acute or chronic condition.
Acute pancreatitis arises suddenly and lasts for a brief duration, while chronic pancreatitis is a long-term affliction...

Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Acute Pancreatitis I: Introduction
Acute pancreatitis is characterized by rapid inflammation of the pancreas, often caused by factors like gallstone blockage or excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic pancreatitis, on the other hand, is a slow, progressive inflammation that may result from long-term alcohol abuse, obstructions in the pancreatic duct, or genetic factors.
The causes of acute pancreatitis include:
