Alterations in exocrine pancreatic function after acute pancreatitis. [PDF]
PancreatologyExocrine pancreatic dysfunction (EPD) is a malabsorptive complication of pancreatic disorders that can lead to a host of symptoms ranging from flatulence to diarrhea and contribute to weight loss and metabolic bone disease. It is increasingly recognized to occur after acute pancreatitis (AP), including episodes with mild severity.

Aging and exocrine pancreatic function.
Nippon Ronen Igakkai Zasshi. Japanese Journal of Geriatrics, 1989 To evaluate the effect of aging on exocrine pancreatic function, fecal chymotrypsin activity (FCA) was measured by a photometric method in 62 healthy controls (20 to 87 years old, average 51.0 years), 42 patients with non-pancreatic diseases (31 to 83 years old, average 56.1 years), 40 controls in an old-age home (63 to 92 years old, average 77.6 years)
