Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: The relationship between insulin resistance and post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) is not known. We aimed to determine the relation between pre-ERCP insulin resistance and risk of PEP, and to evaluate the relationship of insulin resistance with well-established risk factors for PEP. METHODS: Consecutive patients who underwent ERCP with the diagnosis of choledocolithiasis between January and December 2013 were enrolled in this prospective study. Pre-procedural insulin resistance state and other risk factors were evaluated according to PEP development. RESULTS: Pancreatitis developed in 16 (11.3 %) of 141 ERCP procedure. Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) levels was found statistically significantly higher in patients who developed PEP than the ones who did not (3.37 ± 0.8 vs. 2.38 ± 1.4, p < 0.001). Common bile duct (CBD) diameter of the patients developing PEP was found significantly lower than the non-PEP group (10.1 ± 4 vs. 13.4 ± 4.5 mm, p = 0.01). Mean procedure time was 33.5 min in PEP group and 27.9 min in non-PEP group (p = 0.006). HOMA-IR (OR 2.39), procedure time (OR 1.15), and CBD diameter (OR 0.82) were independent predictors of PEP development. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of insulin resistance is an important risk factor for PEP, and these data can be used as a considerable clue to predict the risk of PEP before ERCP and to decrease related morbidity.
