This is a prospective study enrolling  44 patients that have presented pancreatitis associated to covid 19, all cases were studied case by case, with patients of different ages and gender enrolled on it, each case with different treatment, signs, symptoms and individuality, all of this patients took a SARS-COV2 test and PCR to confirm their diagnosis.

Clinical signs, aswell as radiologic signs were taken into account to diagnose pancreatitis in the patients that are presented in the clinical study, the study was performed for 24 patients

Discusion

During this study we recollected data for 44 patients from 24 different studies in which most patients had presented similar symptoms, most of the patients were over 50 years old, we believe that having a healthy lifestyle can decrease the possibility of having a pancreatitis associated with covid 19, we have that at least 25% of the patients in our study had Hypertension or Diabetes Mellitus, we know that maintaining a weight where an individual has a waist circumference inferior to 90 will decrease by far the possibility that they get on further years in their life a chronic disease it will even decrease the possibility of having pancreatic cancer or developing gallstones associated to being overweight or obese.

Exercising is important we know that in United States the major reason of death and mortality are hearth related diseases which are also associated to obesity and overweight, nowadays the two countries with the biggest overweight population are both Mexico and United States they are the countries with the most overweight children in the World.

We will relate covid 19 to pancreatitis but what are the major reasons for this happening, it most probably is related to being overweight and having obesity, most of the patients that have died in the whole world due to covid 19 had chronic diseases related to them such as Hypertension which we know is mostly related to triglycerides and inflammatory debris alongside the arterial walls which eventually will lead you to hypertension or Diabetes Mellitus which is related to end glycosylated products also grouping alongside the arterial walls, it is important to note that also heart related diseases such as even having a myocardial infarction is mostly related to inflammatory debris and hypertriglyceridemia that have accumulated alongside the coronary arteries such as the circumflex artery, the left descending artery and the right coronary artery.

We recollected data from 24 articles that were screened and found eligible for data extraction. These articles reported cases of COVID 19 and pancreatitis, these patients seek for clinical attention for treatment of fever (36%), nausea and vomiting (31%), diarrhea (25%), abdominal pain (20%), severe presentation/pneumonia (20%), cough (13%), all of them were diagnosed with COVID 19 at the admission to the hospital. From these group of patients, the incidence of females was observed to be slightly bigger than with males, the observed ratio was 23:21 patients (Table).

The mean age of the group of patients was 50, with a mode of 36 and median of 55 years old. Our data reported that the youngest patient had 24 years old and was a male and our oldest patient was a woman of 90 years old. Table 2 shows the comparison of age between females and males. Reporting 6 males had an age between 21-40 years old, 7 males had between 41-60 years and lastly 8 patients had ages between 81-100, from females the data reported 8 females between 21-40 years old, 6 felled in 41-60 years old, 7 had between 61-80 years and lastly 1 woman felled in the category of 81-100 years old. (Table 2)

On tables 3 and 4 we demostrate 18 of the patients denied any comorbidities while 26 reported at least 1 comorbid from the following: hypertension 28%, diabetes mellitus 24%, obesity 8%,
asthma 8%, smoking 4% and 8% reported other diseases.

We also observed the drugs used in these patients in view of the fact that some acute pancreatitis have been associated to certain drugs.

Conclusions

We see that most patients presented general symptoms nausea, vomiting, fever and abdominal pain, which are characteritistic of pancreatitis we can also add that most patients were female which happens to be that most women over 40 tend to have overweight or obesity, being that most of the patients that we have in our sample is over 50 years old, we believe that although this is more an informative research that the importance of a healthy lifestyle, such as a diet, exercising, having habits towards a positive lifestyle can prevent in an enormous amount the impact of having covid, many of the patients in this study were female, it is important to note that women tend to have obesity and overweight on later years due to the fact of pregnancy, the fact that women over 50 and with menopause tend to keep more lipids on their body and increase weight as they age, aswell as the fact that smoking is more prevalent in women than in men which also happens to be alongside obesity one the two major causes for pancreatic cancer more specifically the biggest cause for pancreatic cancer is smoking, also is important to note that women tend to have gallbladder and biliary tree obstructions alongside choledocolitiasis and cholangitis is a lot more prevalent In women which can put in risk a person towards pancreatic problems more than a male individual
