| Core Tip |
This study establishes a correlation between the characteristics of ascites, including color depth and turbidity, and the clinical prognosis of acute pancreatitis (AP) patients. We demonstrate that lactate dehydrogenase levels in ascites can accurately predict the development of ACS and intra-abdominal hemorrhage in AP patients. This research provides novel insights into the utility of ascites characteristics as prognostic indicators in AP, potentially aiding in the early identification of patients at higher risk for severe complications and mortality. |
