Table 1.
Pancreatitis Characteristics and Outcomes.
Fig 1.
FGF21 and lipase levels in acute pancreatitis subjects and FGF21 levels in control subjects.
Panel A shows mean serum FGF21 and lipase levels in acute pancreatitis subjects from the day of onset of symptoms, while panel B shows mean FGF21 levels in healthy control subjects drawn every two weeks over the course of four weeks. Data shown as the mean ± SEM.
Fig 2.
Maximum FGF21 levels in acute pancreatitis are significantly greater than baseline levels and control levels.
The baseline FGF21 level for acute pancreatitis subjects is the lower value of either the first or last measured FGF21 level during a hospital course. Data shown as mean ± SEM. N = 25 for acute pancreatitis, N = 20 for control subjects. ** P < 0.01 compared to maximum levels; *** P < 0.001 compared to maximum levels; **** P < 0.0001 compared to maximum levels.
