		BMI				WHR
		Normal	Overweight	Obesity	p value	No central obesity	Central obesity	p value
Local complications	Walled-off necrosis (n = 5)	1	1	3	NS	2	3	NS
	Abscess (n = 5)	1	2	2	NS	2	3	NS
	Pseudocyst (n = 8)	2	3	3	NS	3	5	NS
Systemic complications	Respiratory failure (n = 14)	2	3	9	p < 0.05	4	10	p < 0.05
	Renal failure (n = 6)	1	2	3	NS	2	4	NS
