Hypertriglyceridemia is a well-recognized etiology of acute pancreatitis, and the incidence of hypertriglyceridemic acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) has increased in frequency worldwide in response to lifestyle changes. It is crucial to identify hypertriglyceridemia as the cause of pancreatitis and initiate appropriate treatment. Insulin treatment produces effective lowering of triglycerides, but in our opinion, non-diabetic patients with HTG-AP require separate consideration to avoid hypoglycemia.
高甘油三酯血症是急性胰腺炎一种公认的病因，随着生活方式的改变，全球范围内高甘油三酯血症性急性胰腺炎（HTG-AP）的发病率不断上升。将高甘油三酯血症确定为胰腺炎病因并启动适当治疗至关重要。胰岛素治疗能有效降低甘油三酯水平，但我们认为，非糖尿病的HTG-AP患者需要单独考虑，以避免低血糖。
