Cochran-Armitage trend test was used for statistical comparisons.

ARP indicates Acute Recurrent Pancreatitis; CP: Chronic Pancreatitis; PD: pancreatic duct; CFTR, cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator; PRSS1, cationic trypsinogen; CTRC, chymotrypsin C; SPINK1, serine protease inhibitor Kazal-type 1.
