Is the type 2 diabetes mellitus susceptibility gene IGF2BP2 associated with schizophrenia in a Han Chinese population?
These results suggest that the IGF2BP2 gene may play a role in susceptibility to schizophrenia, supporting the hypothesis that the co-occurrence of type 2 diabetes mellitus and schizophrenia may be explained by shared genetic risk variants. However, this finding remains preliminary since this association has yet to be replicated.
Use of pancreatotoxic drugs before or during ERCP significantly increased the risk of post-ERCP pancreatitis. Thus, discontinuation of the use of such drugs before ERCP seems justified whenever possible.
