    A risk prediction model was developed to identify patients with hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis at risk of progressing to moderately severe acute pancreatitis.

  • 2

    The study included 146 patients with hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis admitted between January 2018 and December 2023.

  • 3

    Independent risk factors for moderately severe acute pancreatitis included systemic inflammatory response syndrome and elevated triglyceride levels within 24 hours of admission.

    The prediction model demonstrated an area under the ROC curve of 0.909, with a sensitivity of 86.2% and specificity of 90.9% in the validation cohort.

    A 24-hour triglyceride level below 18.41 mmol/L indicates a lower risk of progression to moderately severe disease, but combined biochemical indicators are recommended.
