“…Effective preventive and therapeutic drugs for the human acute pancreatitis are still lacking in the mirror of the evaluation of prognostic factors [ 12 , 83 , 104 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 ]. Although they are non-specific, the early hydration and enteral feeding are still important tools [ 11 , 12 , 109 , 110 ].…”

Acute pancreatitis still means a serious challenge in clinical practice. Its pathomechanism is complex and has yet to be fully elucidated. Rheological properties of blood play an important role in tissue perfusion and show non-specific changes in acute pancreatitis. An increase in blood and plasma viscosity, impairment of red blood cell deformability, and enhanced red blood cell aggregation caused by metabolic, inflammatory, free radical-related changes and mechanical stress contribute to the deterioration of the blood flow in the large vessels and also in the microcirculation. Revealing the significance of these changes in acute pancreatitis may better explain the pathogenesis and optimize the therapy. In this review, we give an overview of the role of impaired microcirculation by changes in hemorheological properties in acute pancreatitis.

“…7 The key to treatment lies in triglyceride control, lifestyle modifications, and weight loss to prevent recurrence. 8,9 If patients do not take their own lipid levels seriously, they are highly prone to disease recurrence due to excessively high blood lipid levels, causing secondary harm and resulting in poor prognosis. Clinical research has found that implementing effective nursing care during clinical treatment can control the disease progression and ensure the physical health of patients with acute pancreatitis complicated by hyperlipidemia.…”

This study aimed to observe the impact of the hospital-community-family integrated nursing paradigm on the compliance, psychological state, and blood lipid levels in patients with hyperlipidemia pancreatitis (HLP). Methods: Totally 66 HLP patients treated in our institution between June 2018 and June 2021 were randomized to Exp group and Con group. The Exp group received the hospital-community-family integrated nursing mode, whereas Con group adopted conventional nursing. Outcome measures included patient compliance, mental state, and blood cholesterol levels. Results: Patients with integrated nursing exhibited markedly higher compliance than those with conventional nursing, as evinced by higher scores of compliance behavior, compliance awareness, medication attitude, and treatment attitude (P < 0.05). Integrated nursing offered more potent mitigation of negative emotions of patients than conventional nursing (P < 0.05). Integrated nursing resulted in better enhanced quality of life of patients versus conventional nursing (P < 0.05). Superior blood lipid amelioration was observed in patients after integration nursing versus those after conventional nursing, demonstrated by a higher serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level, and lower levels of triglycerides (TG), cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (P < 0.05). Patients were more satisfied with integrated nursing (96.97%) than conventional nursing (72.73%), suggesting a high patient acceptance of the nursing mode (P < 0.05). Conclusion:The hospital-community-family integrated nursing model provides a viable alternative to enhance HLP patients' compliance and optimize their psychological state and blood lipid levels, demonstrating good potential for clinical promotion.
