Advancement in Intestinal Barrier Dysfunction of Severe Acute Pancreatitis / 中国普外基础与临床杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To summarize the recent progress in pathogenetic,diagnostic and therapeutic researches on the intestinal barrier dysfunction(IBD) of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods The advancement of IBD in SAP,which was published recently at home and abroad,was collected and reviewed.Results The pathogenesis of IBD in patients with SAP was complex.Ischemia-reperfusion injury,endotoxin,inflammatory mediators and gastrointestinal hormone played an important role in the process of IBD.There were many ways to detect IBD,and the ratio of lactulose and mannitol,plasma diamine oxidase were relatively ideal markers.Medical therapies,such as treatment of SAP and maintaining the perfusion of intestines,were essential to cure IBD.On this basis,the propulsives,nutritional support and traditional Chinese drugs should be administered reasonably.Conclusions IBD is a sophisticated process of pathophysiology.In recent years,abundant of animal experiments and clinical researches have provided new clue for prevention and cure of IBD,but further researches are still needed on the mechanism of the cells and molecules implicated.
