Comparative prognostic value of inflammation-based biomarkers for predicting in-hospital mortality in severe acute pancreatitis

Key Points

To assess the predictive value of inflammation-based biomarkers for in-hospital mortality in severe acute pancreatitis.
Compared LAR and SOFA scores for predicting mortality.
Evaluated the effectiveness of LAR as an inflammation-based biomarker.
Analyzed patient outcomes related to early mortality risk.
LAR outperformed other biomarkers in predicting early mortality.
LAR's predictive performance was similar to that of the SOFA score.
LAR's simplicity enhances its utility for early risk assessment.

Abstract

LAR was the most informative inflammation-based biomarker for early mortality prediction in SAP, with performance comparable to the SOFA score. Its simplicity and predictive ability suggest that LAR may serve as a useful adjunct to existing scoring systems for early risk assessment.
