High prevalence of anxiety and depression among patients with acute and chronic pancreatitis: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Our findings reveal a notably high prevalence of depression and anxiety in pancreatitis, exceeding global averages and rates seen in other GI disorders. These findings warrant routine psychological screening, ongoing follow-up, and the integration of mental health professionals into multidisciplinary care teams are therefore warranted.
