Trial summary

The most common cause of acute pancreatitis is gallstones. It is known that diet and obesity play a role in the formation of gallstones. It has been reported that the risk of gallstone formation is two times higher in obese individuals with a body mass index (BMI) >30 than in normal-weight individuals with a BMI… Read more about this study

About this study

The most common cause of acute pancreatitis is gallstones. It is known that diet and obesity play a role in the formation of gallstones. It has been reported that the risk of gallstone formation is two times higher in obese individuals with a body mass index (BMI) >30 than in normal-weight individuals with a BMI between 20-25. The epidemiological literature on the relationship between diet and risk of acute pancreatitis is very limited. In addition, it is often unclear which type (acute, recurrent, or chronic) and subtype (gallstone-related or non-gallstone-related) of acute pancreatitis is studied in studies. Although there are studies in the literature evaluating the relationship between diet and development of gallstones or the development of pancreatitis with diet, studies examining the role of diet in the development of pancreatitis in patients with gallstones are very limited. In this study, we aimed to investigate the dietary differences in patients with gallstones who had pancreatitis and those who did not.

Read the detailed description

The incidence of acute pancreatitis has been reported as 4.9-35/100.000, and the incidence increases every year with the increase in obesity and gallstone rates. It is most commonly observed between the ages of 30-60 and no difference was found in terms of gender distribution. The most common cause of acute pancreatitis is gallstones. Alcohol use, drugs and other reasons come next.

It is known that diet and obesity play a role in the formation of gallstones. It has been reported that the risk of gallstone formation is two times higher in obese individuals with a body mass index (BMI) >30 than in normal-weight individuals with a BMI between 20-25. In addition, many studies have reported that increased use of dietary refined carbohydrates and triglycerides and reduced dietary fiber intake are associated with gallstone formation.

The epidemiological literature on the relationship between diet and risk of acute pancreatitis is very limited. In addition, it is often unclear which type (acute, recurrent, or chronic) and subtype (gallstone-related or non-gallstone-related) of acute pancreatitis is studied in studies. On the other hand, Sarles et al. In a comprehensive study conducted in 1973, he reported that high fat and protein consumption and alcoholism increase the risk of pancreatitis, regardless of etiology. Few case-control and ecological studies have evaluated the effect of protein, fat, and carbohydrate intakes on alcohol-related or gallstone-related acute pancreatitis risk or non-gallstone-related acute pancreatitis risk or acute pancreatitis mortality.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, an inverse relationship between coffee consumption and the risk of alcohol-induced acute pancreatitis was observed in a prospective study, and an inverse relationship with fruit consumption in two smaller case-control studies, and a positive association with consumption of freshwater fish and parboiled rice. In parallel, overly large meals and food allergies after a long period of fasting have been reported to be risk factors for acute pancreatitis.

Although there are studies in the literature evaluating the relationship between diet and development of gallstones or the development of pancreatitis with diet, studies examining the role of diet in the development of pancreatitis in patients with gallstones are very limited. In this study, we aimed to investigate the dietary differences in patients with gallstones who had pancreatitis and those who did not.

In the study, age, gender, body mass index, alcohol and cigarette consumption status, daily physical activity status, eating frequency, frequency of food consumption for three days, and their food consumption status will be evaluated with the BeBis 8 Full version program and it will be compared whether there is a difference between patients who had pancreatitis and those who did not. .

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diet Habit and Gall Stone, run by Istanbul Training and Research Hospital at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 15 inclusion and 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05142657, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
