Background Previous studies have shown that the risk of acute pancreatitis (AP) is increased in obesity population, while obese patients are often combined with abnormal fasting plasma glucose (FPG). It still remians controversial whether FPG independently increases the risk of AP and the relationship between FPG and the risk of AP in non-obese patients has been rarely reported in China and abroad. Objective To explore the association between baseline FPG level and the risk of AP in non-obese population. Methods Using a prospective cohort study method, a total of 102 512 non-obese cases from the Kailuan study cohort who completed physical examination for the first time in KaiLuan General Hospital and its 10 affiliated hospitals from 2006 to 2009 were enrolled as study subjects. Epidemiological data, anthropometric data, laboratory test indicators and other information of the subjects were collected. The study subjects were divided into 4 groups according to the FPG quartile: the first quartile group (group Q1, FPG≤4.66 mmol/L, n=25 929) ; the second quartile group (group Q2, 4.66 mmol/L≤FPG

Background Hypertriglyceridemia has been increasingly valued as a risk factor for acute pancreatitis (AP) . However, the relationship between obesity and AP has not yet been confirmed, whether baseline triglyceride (TG) affects the risk of AP in non-obese people is still inconclusive. Objective To explore the association between baseline serum triglyceride (TG) and the risk of AP in a nonobese cohort from Kailuan Group. Methods A prospective cohort study was performed among in-service and retired workers of Kailuan Group (non-obese, without a history of AP, with complete TG information) who first attended the annual health screening for workers of the group as a benefit conducted between 2006 and 2007 or between 2008-2009. The cumulative incidence of AP across serum TG tertile groups: 〔Q1 group (TG≤0.96 mmol/L) , Q2 group (0.96 mmol/L
