CRP and pancreatitis: Prediction scores were calculated to estimate disease severity using the following regression equations: Prediction Acute Pancreatitis Severity (PAPS) score I = 1.237 + 0.144 × nonA-nonB (0 = no, 1 = yes) + 0.001 × WBC1 + 0.027 × VAS0 and PAPS score II = 1.189 + 0.001 × CRP (mg/L) + 0.135 × nonA-nonB etiology (0 = no, 1 = yes) + 0.025 × VAS0 − 0.047 × CA1.
