Distribution of temporal pain patterns based on temporal nature in patients with different imaging categories

Imaging Category Temporal Nature of pain
No pain (n=81) Intermittent (n=165) Constant (n=272) p-value
Obstructive (n=103) 10 (12.4) 42 (25.5) 51 (18.6) 0.0891
Inflammatory (n=130) 18 (22.2) 40 (24.2) 72 (26.5)
Pseudocysts (n=52) 6 (7.4) 19 (11.5) 27 (9.9)
Others (n=233) 47 (58.0) 64 (38.8) 122 (44.9)

Analysis after removing 39 patients with pancreatic duct stricture/dilatation from inflammation, pseudocyst and other categories showed similar results
