Studying the significance of the immune response to damage and adipokine levels is urgent regarding the development of both chronic pancreatitis and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Our objective was to study the indices of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), C-reactive protein (CRP), adiponectin, leptin, and resistin as links for triggering the mechanisms of development and progression of the low-grade chronic systemic inflammatory response in chronic pancreatitis (CP) patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The study groups consisted of 87 patients: 47 patients with isolated CP (group I), 40 with CP combined with T2DM (group II), and 41 practically healthy persons. It has been established that in patients with isolated CP, the TNF-α concentration showed a reliable 1.57-fold (p <0.05) increase compared to practically healthy persons (PHP) and a 1.32-fold increase in patients who also had T2DM (p<0.05). CP patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus had the highest CRP indices (5.5-fold, p <0.05. TNF-α and C-reactive protein indices were higher in patients with chronic pancreatitis and T2DM than those with isolated chronic pancreatitis, characterizing the persistence of chronic systemic inflammation in case of the combined clinical course of these diseases.
