Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to determine the levels of vascular endothelial cell damage markers(P-selectin, TM and vWF)in SAP patients and the control group.Results The levels of 3 markers were significantly higher in SAP patients than in the mild and moderate acute pancreatitis patients and healthy volunteers(P<0.05). P-selectin, TM and vWF were independent markers for the development of SAP and had higher discriminative powers than conventional marker tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α)(P<0.05). They were similar to the APACHE-Ⅱ scoring system in distinguishing SAP at an early stage.Conclusions P-selectin, TM and vWF are independent markers to identify the development of SAP at an early stage. They are obviously superior to TNF-α and similar to the APACHE-Ⅱscoring system.展开更多
