Natural Progression of Biochemical Markers of Biliary Tract Obstruction in Patients with Gallstone Pancreatitis
Figure 4
Kaplan Meier Plot of Time to Normalization (<1.0 mg/dL) of bilirubin in the Crescendo-Decrescendo group. In patients not undergoing ERCP, time 0 was the time of admission, which corresponded to the highest bilirubin level for that patient. In patients undergoing ERCP, time 0 was the day of the ERCP and time to normalization was calculated from the time of ERCP. Time to normalization in patients undergoing ERCP was significantly delayed ().
