Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is common in the general population and it poses a heavy burden to society in the form of long-term disability, healthcare use and costs. The pancreas is a key player in glucose homeostasis, but the occurrence of newly diagnosed DM after acute pancreatitis (AP), the most frequent disease of the pancreas, has never been assessed systematically. The aim of this study was to conduct a systematic literature review to determine the prevalence and time course of DM and related conditions after the first attack of AP as well as the impact of covariates.
