Abstract
Objective
To systematically review trends in the epidemiology of the first attack of acute pancreatitis (AP) based on reported population-based studies.
Methods
From Medline, we retrieved 18 full-length English language peer-reviewed original articles published from 1966 to June 2005 with population-based information on the epidemiology of first-attack AP. Trends over time were analyzed based on study- and country-specific data and the study site (UK vs non-UK).
