    (Wiley, 2022-11) Uc, Aliye; Cress, Gretchen A.; Wang, Fuchenchu; Abu-El-Haija, Maisam; Ellery, Kate M.; Fishman, Douglas S.; Gariepy, Cheryl E.; Gonska, Tanja; Lin, Tom K.; Liu, Quin Y.; Mehta, Megha; Maqbool, Asim; McFerron, Brian A.; Morinville, Veronique D.; Ooi, Chee Y.; Perito, Emily R.; Schwarzenberg, Sarah Jane; Sellers, Zachary M.; Serrano, Jose; Shah, Uzma; Troendle, David M.; Wilschanski, Michael; Zheng, Yuhua; Yuan, Ying; Lowe, Mark E.; Consortium for the Study of Chronic Pancreatitis, Diabetes and Pancreatic Cancer; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Objectives: To investigate risk factors and disease burden in pediatric acute recurrent pancreatitis (ARP) and chronic pancreatitis (CP). Methods: Data were obtained from INternational Study group of Pediatric Pancreatitis: In search for a cuRE-2 (INSPPIRE-2), the largest multi-center prospective cohort study in pediatric patients with ARP or CP. Results: Of 689 children, 365 had ARP (53%), 324 CP (47%). CP was more commonly associated with female sex, younger age at first acute pancreatitis (AP) attack, Asian race, family history of CP, lower BMI%, genetic and obstructive factors, PRSS1 mutations and pancreas divisum. CFTR mutations, toxic-metabolic factors, medication use, hypertriglyceridemia, Crohn disease were more common in children with ARP. Constant or frequent abdominal pain, emergency room (ER) visits, hospitalizations, medical, endoscopic or surgical therapies were significantly more common in CP, episodic pain in ARP. 33.1% of children with CP had exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), 8.7% had diabetes mellitus. Compared to boys, girls were more likely to report pain impacting socialization and school, medical therapies, cholecystectomy, but no increased opioid use. There was no difference in race, ethnicity, age at first AP episode, age at CP diagnosis, duration of disease, risk factors, prevalence EPI or diabetes between boys and girls. Multivariate analysis revealed that family history of CP, constant pain, obstructive risk factors were predictors of CP. Conclusions: Children with family history of CP, constant pain or obstructive risk factors should raise suspicion for CP.

    INternational Study Group of Pediatric Pancreatitis: In Search for a CuRE Cohort Study: Design and Rationale for INSPPIRE 2 From the Consortium for the Study of Chronic Pancreatitis, Diabetes, and Pancreatic Cancer
    (Wolters Kluwer, 2018-11) Uc, Aliye; Perito, Emily R.; Pohl, John F.; Shah, Uzma; Abu-El-Haija, Maisam; Barth, Bradley; Bellin, Melena D.; Ellery, Kate M.; Fishman, Douglas S.; Gariepy, Cheryl E.; Giefer, Matthew J.; Gonska, Tanja; Heyman, Melvin B.; Himes, Ryan W.; Husain, Sohail Z.; Maqbool, Asim; Mascarenhas, Maria R.; McFerron, Brian A.; Morinville, Veronique D.; Lin, Tom K.; Liu, Quin Y.; Nathan, Jaimie D.; Rhee, Sue J.; Ooi, Chee Y.; Sellers, Zachary M.; Schwarzenberg, Sarah Jane; Serrano, Jose; Troendle, David M.; Werlin, Steven L.; Wilschanski, Michael; Zheng, Yuhua; Yuan, Ying; Lowe, Mark E.; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    We created the INternational Study Group of Pediatric Pancreatitis: In Search for a CuRE (INSPPIRE 2) cohort to study the risk factors, natural history, and outcomes of pediatric acute recurrent pancreatitis and chronic pancreatitis (CP). Patient and physician questionnaires collect information on demographics, clinical history, family and social history, and disease outcomes. Health-related quality of life, depression, and anxiety are measured using validated questionnaires. Information entered on paper questionnaires is transferred into a database managed by Consortium for the Study of Chronic Pancreatitis, Diabetes, and Pancreatic Cancer's Coordinating and Data Management Center. Biosamples are collected for DNA isolation and analysis of most common pancreatitis-associated genes.Twenty-two sites (18 in the United States, 2 in Canada, and 1 each in Israel and Australia) are participating in the INSPPIRE 2 study. These sites have enrolled 211 subjects into the INSPPIRE 2 database toward our goal to recruit more than 800 patients in 2 years. The INSPPIRE 2 cohort study is an extension of the INSPPIRE cohort study with a larger and more diverse patient population. Our goals have expanded to include evaluating risk factors for CP, its sequelae, and psychosocial factors associated with pediatric acute recurrent pancreatitis and CP.

    Risk Factors for Rapid Progression From Acute Recurrent to Chronic Pancreatitis in Children: Report From INSPPIRE
    (Wolters Kluwer, 2019-08-01) Liu, Quin Y.; Abu-El-Haija, Maisam; Husain, Sohail Z.; Barth, Bradley; Bellin, Melena; Fishman, Douglas S.; Freedman, Steven D.; Gariepy, Cheryl E.; Giefer, Matthew J.; Gonska, Tanja; Heyman, Melvin B.; Himes, Ryan; Lin, Tom K.; Maqbool, Asim; Mascarenhas, Maria; McFerron, Brian A.; Morinville, Veronique D.; Nathan, Jaimie D.; Ooi, Chee Y.; Perito, Emily R.; Pohl, John F.; Rhee, Sue; Schwarzenberg, Sarah J.; Shah, Uzma; Troendle, David; Werlin, Steven L.; Wilschanski, Michael; Zimmerman, M. Bridget; Lowe, Mark E.; Uc, Aliye; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Objective To determine the rate of progression from acute recurrent pancreatitis (ARP) to chronic pancreatitis (CP) in children and assess risk factors. Study Design Data were collected from the INternational Study group of Pediatric Pancreatitis: In search for a cuRE (INSPPIRE) cohort. Kaplan-Meier curves were constructed to calculate duration of progression from initial attack of acute pancreatitis (AP) to CP. Log-rank test was used to compare survival (non-progression) probability distribution between groups. Cox proportional hazard regression models were fitted to obtain hazard ratio (with 95% CI) of progression for each risk variable. Results Of 442 children, 251 had ARP, 191 CP. The median time of progression from initial attack of AP to CP was 3.79 years. The progression was faster in those age ≥6 years at the first episode of AP compared to those age <6 years (median time to CP: 2.91 vs 4.92 years; p=0.01). Children with pathogenic PRSS1 variants progressed more rapidly to CP compared to children without PRSS1 variants (median time to CP: 2.52 vs 4.48 years; p=0.003). Within six years after the initial AP attack, cumulative proportion with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) was 18.0% (95% CI: 12.4%, 25.6%); diabetes mellitus was 7.7% (95% CI: 4.2%, 14.1%). Conclusions Children with ARP rapidly progress to CP, EPI and diabetes. The progression to CP is faster in children who were ≥6 years at the first episode of AP or with pathogenic PRSS1 variants. The factors that impact the aggressive disease course in childhood warrant further investigation.

    Web-based Cognitive-behavioral Intervention for Pain in Pediatric Acute Recurrent and Chronic Pancreatitis: Protocol of a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial from the Study of Chronic Pancreatitis, Diabetes and Pancreatic Cancer (CPDPC)
    (Elsevier, 2020-01) Palermo, Tonya M.; Murray, Caitlin; Aalfs, Homer; Abu-El-Haija, Maisam; Barth, Bradley; Bellin, Melena D.; Ellery, Kate; Fishman, Douglas S.; Gariepy, Cheryl E.; Giefer, Matthew J.; Goday, Praveen; Gonska, Tanja; Heyman, Melvin B.; Husain, Sohail Z.; Lin, Tom K.; Liu, Quin Y.; Mascarenhas, Maria R.; Maqbool, Asim; McFerron, Brian; Morinville, Veronique D.; Nathan, Jaimie D.; Ooi, Chee Y.; Perito, Emily R.; Pohl, John F.; Schwarzenberg, Sarah Jane; Sellers, Zachary M.; Serrano, Jose; Shah, Uzma; Troendle, David; Zheng, Yuhua; Yuan, Ying; Lowe, Mark; Uc, Aliye; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    Introduction Abdominal pain is common and is associated with high disease burden and health care costs in pediatric acute recurrent and chronic pancreatitis (ARP/CP). Despite the strong central component of pain in ARP/CP and the efficacy of psychological therapies for other centralized pain syndromes, no studies have evaluated psychological pain interventions in children with ARP/CP. The current trial seeks to 1) evaluate the efficacy of a psychological pain intervention for pediatric ARP/CP, and 2) examine baseline patient-specific genetic, clinical, and psychosocial characteristics that may predict or moderate treatment response. Methods This single-blinded randomized placebo-controlled multicenter trial aims to enroll 260 youth (ages 10–18) with ARP/CP and their parents from twenty-one INSPPIRE (INternational Study Group of Pediatric Pancreatitis: In search for a cuRE) centers. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a web-based cognitive behavioral pain management intervention (Web-based Management of Adolescent Pain Chronic Pancreatitis; WebMAP; N = 130) or to a web-based pain education program (WebED; N = 130). Assessments will be completed at baseline (T1), immediately after completion of the intervention (T2) and at 6 months post-intervention (T3). The primary study outcome is abdominal pain severity. Secondary outcomes include pain-related disability, pain interference, health-related quality of life, emotional distress, impact of pain, opioid use, and healthcare utilization. Conclusions This is the first clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of a psychological pain intervention for children with CP for reduction of abdominal pain and improvement of health-related quality of life. Findings will inform delivery of web-based pain management and potentially identify patient-specific biological and psychosocial factors associated with favorable response to therapy.
