RESUMO
Among 81 patients with chronic pancreatitis (CP) metabolic syndrome (MS) diagnosed in 51.8% of persons; the frequency of MS in possible, probable and definite forms of CP, and well as in various of index of CP severity (A, B, C, D) did not differ. Average of QOL in all the examined patients with CP, assessed by SF-36 questionnaire, were: the scale of FF--47.2 +/- 3.6; RF--8.3 +/- 3.3; BP--37.4 +/- 2.3; GH--33.7 +/- 2.1; V--46.5 +/- 1.7; SF--65.0 +/- 2.7; REF--10.0 +/- 3.7; MH--59.9 +/- 1.9. Mean QoL in CP patients, assessed by questionnaire GIQLI, were: on a scale of symptoms (C)--41.8 +/- 2.0; emotions (E)--8.3 +/- 0.6; physical functioning (PF) - 10.0 +/- 1.0; treatment (T)--3.8 +/- 0.1; social functioning (SF)--10.6 +/- 0.4; the total score (TS)--74.4 +/- 3.3. QoL in patients with biliary, alcoholic or idiopathic etiology of CP did not differ neither by SF-36, nor by GIQLI. In CP patients with MS QoL in the scales RFF, GH and REF by SF-36 questionnaire and in the scales of E, TS by questionnaire GIQLI were significantly better than in CP patients without MS.
