ABSTRACT
Abstract Background Plasmapheresis is widely used for severe hypertriglyceridemia-associated acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) to remove excessive triglycerides from plasma. This study aimed evaluate whether plasmapheresis could improve the duration of organ failure in HTG-AP patients. Methods We analyzed a cohort patients multicenter, prospective, long-running registry (the PERFORM) collecting admitted sites within 72 h onset symptoms. was based on data collected November 2020 March 2023. Patients who had at enrollment were involved analyses. The primary outcome time resolution 14 days. Multivariable Cox regression model association between and resolution. Directed acyclic graph (DAG) identify potential confounders. Results A total 122 included (median [IQR] sequential assessment (SOFA) score enrollment, 3.00 [2.00–4.00]). Among patients, 46 underwent plasmapheresis, 76 received medical treatment. DAG revealed that baseline serum triglyceride, APACHE II score, respiratory failure, cardiovascular renal After adjusting selected confounders, there no significant difference undergoing those receiving exclusive treatment (HR = 1.07; 95%CI 0.68–1.68; P 0.777). Moreover, use associated with higher ICU requirements (97.8% [45/46] vs. 65.8% [50/76]; OR, 19.33; 2.20 169.81; 0.008). Conclusions In early not accelerated compared but may be more admissions. Trial registration : PERFORM registered Chinese Clinical Registry (ChiCTR2000039541). Registered 30 October 2020.
