Objective To investigate the complications of therapeutic endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) in patients with metabolic syndrome and their prevention. Methods Clinical data of 300 patients who underwent therapeutic ERCP in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from March 2013 to January 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Among these patients, 100 of them(group A)had metabolic syndrome and 200 others(group B)did not. Age, sex and post-operative hyperamylasemia,acute pancreatitis,infection of biliary tract and upper gastrointestinal bleeding of two groups were compared. In addition,effects of BMI,TG,BP and FPG on the occurrence of complications in group A were analyzed. Results No difference was found in age and sex between group A and B(P>0.05),but group A had higher incidences of post-operative hyperamylasemia[16.0%(16/100)VS 6.0% (12/200)],acute pancreatitis[14.0%(14/100)VS 4.0%(8/200)], infection of biliary tract[12.0% (12/100)VS 4.0%(8/200)]and upper gastrointestinal bleeding[8.0%(8/100)VS 1.0%(2/200)] (P<0.05). Meanwhile, patients had higher incidences of complications(post-operative hyperamylasemia, acute pancreatitis,infection of biliary tract and upper gastrointestinal bleeding)when BMI[56.10%(46/82) VS 22.22%(4/18)],TG[56.41%(44/78)VS 27.27%(6/22)],BP[64.29%(27/42)VS 39.66% (23/58)]or FPG[54.44%(49/90)VS 10.00%(1/10)]increased in group A(P < 0.05).Conclusion Patients with metabolic syndrome have a higher incidence of complications after therapeutic ERCP than patients without. Therefore,careful preparation, post-operative observation and intervention are essential when patients with metabolic syndrome undergo therapeutic ERCP.

To investigate the apoptotic effect of flavonoid compound GL-V9 on human gastric cancer cells and its potential mechanism, MGC-803 and BGC-823 cells were treated with GL-V9. MTT assay was performed to assess the growth inhibition effects on MGC-803 and BGC-823 cells under different concentrations of GL-V9. Annexin V-FITC/PI staining assay was employed to observe the apoptotic rate of GL-V9 cells with the treatment of GL-V9. DAPI staining was performed to observe the nuclear morphological changes using fluorescence microscopy. Activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 was analyzed by Western blotting. Ca2+ concentration in gastric cancer cells was detected by Fluo-3 AM staining assay. Results showed that GL-V9 could inhibitcell viability, change the nuclear morphologyl, activate caspase-9 and caspase-3 and induce the apoptosis in gastric cancer cells. The mechanism of the induction of apoptosis in MGC-803 cells under the treatment of GL-V9 may aetivate the Ca2+ associated mitochondrial apoptosis pathway.

In clinical application, a microneedle system that continuously delivers drugs is of great value for the delivery of some vaccines and hormone drugs. In this study, a controlled-release chitosan-based microneedle array (PVA/CS-MN) was designed, combining microneedle patches with drugs for controlled-release of drugs. Here we report the optimization of the preparation process of PVA/CS-MN. The appearance, morphology, mechanical properties, dissolution and swelling properties, and in vitro penetration properties of the MN arrays were characterized. The PVA/CS-MN prepared by the optimal process showed good morphology and mechanical properties. PVA/CS-MN can smoothly open microchannels on the skin and achieve controllable dissolution and swelling functions. Ascorbic acid (l-ascorbic acid) was used as a model drug to prepare a Vc-PVA/CS-MN. In vitro transdermal diffusion experiments showed that the Vc-PVA/CS-MN released about 57% of the drug within 1 h. About 66.7% of the drug was slowly released within 12 h, and a total of 92% of the drug was released after 7 days. The controllable sustained-release properties and excellent drug delivery efficiency of PVA/CS-MN provide a new option for sustained transdermal drug delivery.
