A PROSPECTIVE STUDY FOR THE NATURAL HISTORY OF CHRONIC PANCREATITIS

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 本研究的具体目的是前瞻性地确定不同病因的慢性胰腺炎的自然史、临床、实验室和组织形态学特征。 确定与CP患者病理生理状态相关的临床和实验室参数。 量化与CP相关的行为异常。 确定CP疾病进展和结局的心理和行为相关性。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The specific aims of the study are to prospectively define the natural history and the clinical, laboratory and histo-mophometric features of chronic pancreatitis of varying etiology. To identify clinical and laboratory parameters that correlate with the pathophysiologic state in patients with CP. To quantify the behavioral abnormalities associated with CP. To determine psychological and behavioral correlates of CP disease progression and outcomes.
