Summary

Alcohol is a known risk factor for both pancreatitis and cirrhosis. However, not all patients with alcohol related cirrhosis develop pancreatitis. It is not known which patients with alcohol-related cirrhosis develop symptomatic or clinically inapparent pancreatitis (Acute or Chronic Pancreatitis).There is no data whether genetic polymorphisms predispose patients with alcohol-related cirrhosis to additional pancreatic injury. There is no data on the spectrum of clinical and subclinical pancreatic changes (structural and functional) in patients with alcohol-related cirrhosis, and their genotypic correlates.This study aims to determine pancreatitis-related gene variants among patients with alcohol-related cirrhosis, with and without pancreatitis. We also aim to study differences in nutritional and functional parameters among alcoholic cirrhosis with and without chronic pancreatitis and also define the relationship of genetic polymorphisms with the pancreatic phenotype. Consecutive patients with alcohol related cirrhosis will be screened for changes of pancreatitis on CT/MR/EUS. Those with and without pancreatitis will be compared with respect to demographic, clinical, genotype, nutritional status .We will also be including a group of MAFLD/Cryptogenic cirrhosis for genotypic and phenotypic comparison.
