Quiz on Endocrine Aspects of Pancreatitis

Dear doctor, Participate in this fun and interesting quiz on Endocrine Aspects of Pancreatitis. Pancreatitis, whether acute or chronic, significantly impacts the endocrine functions of the pancreas, leading to potential complications like diabetes mellitus. The destruction of pancreatic islet cells, responsible for hormone production, disrupts the delicate balance of insulin and glucagon, resulting in impaired glucose regulation. This can manifest as pancreatogenic diabetes (type 3c diabetes), which often presents unique challenges in management due to the concurrent loss of other pancreatic hormones and digestive enzymes. Participate now.

1. A 45-year-old male with a history of chronic pancreatitis presents with new-onset hyperglycemia. Which of the following statements BEST reflects the endocrinologist's role in this scenario?

2. In a patient with acute pancreatitis secondary to hypertriglyceridemia, which of the following is the MOST appropriate initial endocrine intervention?

3. A patient with chronic pancreatitis develops severe abdominal pain, diaphoresis, and confusion. Initial blood glucose is 40 mg/dL. What is the MOST likely endocrine-related cause of this presentation?

4. Which of the following statements regarding the long-term endocrine management of patients with chronic pancreatitis is LEAST accurate?

5. A patient with cystic fibrosis-related pancreatitis presents with symptoms suggestive of both diabetes and hypothyroidism. Which of the following approaches is MOST appropriate?
