Jcm Free Full Text Heart Failure And Pancreas Exocrine Heart failure is associated with decreased tissue perfusion and increased venous congestion that may result in organ dysfunction. this dysfunction has been investigated extensively for many organs, but data regarding pancreatic (exocrine) dysfunction are scarce. in the present review we will discuss the available data on the mechanisms of pancreatic damage, how heart failure can lead to. This review article is not convincing, as only three previous reports have addressed the relationship between the heart failure and pancreatic exocrine insufficiency. 1. the authors mixed acute and chronic heart failure. it is reasonable that acute heart failure provides dramatic impacts on organ hemodynamics, but it is not clear in this paper.
Jcm Free Full Text Heart Failure And Pancreas Exocrine A recent prospective study in an advanced heart failure population demonstrated that the endocrine peptide somatostatin, expressed in the stomach, small intestine and pancreas, and a potent inhibitor of pancreatic hormones and exocrine secretions, is elevated in chronic heart failure and independently related to right sided filling pressures. In the present review we will discuss the available data on the mechanisms of pancreatic damage, how heart failure can lead to exocrine dysfunction, and its clinical consequences. we will show that heart failure causes significant impairment of pancreatic exocrine function, particularly in the elderly, which may exacerbate the clinical syndrome. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency found in diabetes is usually of mild to moderate intensity and is not associated with steatorrhea. the prevalence of exocrine pancreatic dysfunction is higher in type 1 diabetes than in type 2, at 26–57% versus 20–36%, respectively . as a rule, all patients suffering from pancreatogenic diabetes show. In heart failure [13], but the relationship between pei and appetite loss is unclarifed. in this study, the pancreatic exocrine function was measured by fe 1 levels in the enrolled patients of chf. appetite assessment was tested by the simplified nutritional appetite ques tionnaire (snaq).
