Methods:40patientswithacutepancreatitiswereincludedinthissinglecentercohortpilotstudy.Wholebloodandserum was analyzed on day of admission and nine consecutive days for BAFF, c-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), procalcitonin(PCT),andleucocytenumbers.DifferentseverityScores(Ranson,APACHEII,SAPSII,SAPSIII)andtheclinical courseofthepatient(treatment,durationofstay,durationICU)wererecorded. Results:SerumBAFFcorrelateswithCRP,anestablishedmarkerofseverityinacutepancreatitisatdayofadmissionwith a timecourse profil similar to IL-6 over the first nine days. Serum BAFF increases with Ranson score (Kruskal-Wallis: Chi2=10.8;p=0.03) similar toCRP(Kruskal-Wallis: Chi2=9.4;p=0.05). SerumBAFF, IL-6,andCRP levelsareelevatedin patients that need intensive care for more than seven days and in patients with complicated necrotizing pancreatitis. DiscriminantanalysisandreceiveroperatorcharacteristicsshowthatCRP(wilks-lambda=0.549;ROC:AUC0.948)andBAFF (wilks-lambda=0.907; ROC: AUC 0.843) serum levels at day of admission best predict severe necrotizing pancreatitis or death,outperformingIL-6,PCT,andnumberofleucocytes.
