Interleukin 8 and hepatocyte growth factor in predicting development of severe acute pancreatitis
Objectives: We aimed to study if interleukin (IL) 8 and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) predict development of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) among patients without organ dysfunction (OD) at presentation, and if they discriminate transient OD from ...
