| Core Tip |
It is the first detailed analysis on all World Health Organization body-mass index (BMI) categories, by comparing the normal BMI subgroup to all other subgroups of BMI with regard to both severity and mortality in acute pancreatitis (AP). Here we show that a BMI above 25 increases the risk of severe AP, while a BMI > 30 raises the risk of mortality. A BMI lower than eighteen point five carries an almost two times higher risk of mortality in AP. |
