  • Continuous variables are presented as mean±SD or median (range).

  • Aetiology (1/2/3/4)%, 1, 2, 3 and 4 represent gallstone, alcohol, hypertriglyceridaemia and other aetiologies, respectively.

  • CRP, C reactive protein; LMR, lymphocyte–monocyte ratio; NLR, neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio; PNI, prognostic nutritional index; RDW, red cell distribution width; WCC, white cell count.
