Effect of alcohol and smoking on pancreatic lithogenesis in the course of chronic pancreatitis.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Animal models are essential to understand the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis (AP) and to develop new therapeutic strategies. Although it has been shown that cerulein-induced AP is associated with pain in experimental animals, most experiments are carried out without any pain-relieving treatment because r...
