Abstract:
Dengue may begin as a straightforward fever episode with or without rash also it may affect some organs and cause serious symptoms. Although it is uncommon, severe abdominal discomfort has been a concerning indicator of acute pancreatitis. We report on a male patient, age 26, who first presented with fever, vomiting, and stomach pain. Later, he developed severe pancreatitis. When an acute viral infection causes pancreatitis, ketoacidosis can occur without hyperglycemia. We emphasize that in dengue patients reporting stomach pain, it is important to rule out acute pancreatitis (AP), an uncommon but serious impediment in the course of treatment.

Acute Pancreatitis II: Clinical Manifestations and Management
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 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:
Pathophysiology of Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells, with environmental factors potentially triggering this process in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite many not having a family history, certain genes increase susceptibility,...
