Comparing prognostic scoring systems in acute pancreatitis: Bedside Index of Severity in Acute Pancreatitis, WL, and Chinese Simple Scoring System Scores.

In AP patients, WL, CSSS, and BISAP scores are effective predictors of unfavorable prognosis and mortality. WL score outperforms the CSSS and BISAP scores in predicting 7-day and 30-day mortality and poor prognosis. After WL, BISAP is the second-best system for predicting mortality. For predicting unfavorable prognoses, CSSS is the second-best system after WL. The simplicity of calculating the WL score based on four laboratory parameters makes it a preferable choice.
