Abstract
In a 14-month follow-up of patients hospitalized with AP, we found a meaningful, independent, and deleterious effect of AP in the physical HRQOL of these patients, compared to individuals without AP. Further research is needed to determine the duration of this impairment and to evaluate the effects of modifying risk factors.
