ABSTRACT
Objective To systemically review andquantify the incidence of oral feeding intolerance in acute pancreatitis. Methods Randomized controlled trials that reported the oral feeding intolerance rates of acute pancreatitis were searchedfrom PubMed, EMBASE, Medline, Cochrane Library, WanFang, CNKI, CMCC and VIP dal,abase wilh the" Acute pancreatitis " " Feeding intolerance" " Incidence" " Meta- analysis "from January 2002 to May 2017.

The incidence of oral feeding of intolerance was 12. 2% . The result of subgroup analysis showed that there were no significant difference in the incidence of oral feeding intolerance when region, sample size and published year were taken into analysis (P > 0. 05). The oral feeding intolerance rate of mild acute pancreatitis was lower than that when moderately severe acute pancreatitis and severe acute pancreatitis were, included (8. 2% and 19. 9% , respectively; P = 0. 002 7).
