Abstract:Background and AimThis study aimed to clarify whether several single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)‐related chronic pancreatitis such as carboxypeptidase A1 (CPA1), carboxypeptidase B1 (CPB1), Gamma‐glutamyltransferase 1 (GGT1), G‐protein‐coupled receptor Class C Group 6 Member A (GPRC6A), and serine protease inhibitor, Kazal type 1 (SPINK‐1) genotypes were associated with clinical characteristics of patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) and worrisome features of IPMN.MethodsWe enrolled… Show more
