About this study

Official title: Elevated Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase-1 Expression Predicts the Disease Severity and Clinical Outcomes of Severe Acute Pancreatitis

In this study, the investgatiors aimed to investigate the associations between serum levels of stearoyl-CoA desaturase-1(SCD-1) and the disease severity as well as the presence of adverse clinical events, such as local complications, organ failure, mortality and so on.In this prospective study, participants were divided into two groups based on serum SCD-1 concentration on admission and prospectively observe the disease severity and clinical outcomes of them.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. the incidence rate of infected pancreatic necrosis

    Measured: 2-4 week after disease onset

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. the incidence rate of organ failure

    the incidence rate of organ failure (transient or persistent)

    Measured: 1-2 week after disease onset

  2. the incidence rate of local complications

    acute peripancreatic fluid collections, pancreatic pseudocycts, acute necrotic collections and walled-off necrosis

    Measured: 1-2 week after disease onset

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Pancreatitis and Organ Failure, Multiple, run by Nanjing University School of Medicine.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the incidence rate of infected pancreatic necrosis (time frame: 2-4 week after disease onset). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Nov 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
