Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus have higher risk for acute pancreatitis compared with those without diabetes

Aim: The aetiology of acute pancreatitis (AP) is complex, and many risk factors for AP are shared by patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, few have assessed risk factors for AP specifically in T2DM patients.
