Objective To investigate the related factors that affect the short outcome of abdominal surgery among elderly patients with acute abdomen.Methods Clinical data of 378 patients aged >60 years with acute abdo-men were retrospectively analyzed.The key factors under analysis in this study were the occurrence of major complica-tions,death from any cause within 30 days and related factors after the operation.Results The most common diagno-ses were acute appendicitis (134 cases,35.4%),biliary tract disease (96 cases,25.4%),intestinal obstruction (68 cases,20.0%)and inguinal hernia(42 cases,11.1%).The majority of patients(327cases,86.5%)underwent open surgery.12cases(23.5%)of all 51 cases underwent laparoscopic surgery were converted to open surgery.The 30 day mortality rate and rate of operation -related complications were 9.5% and 22.0%,respectively.Analysis showed that patients'age,low body mass index,open surgery and ASA grade Ⅲ or above may increase mortality(all P <0.05).Conclusion The acute abdomen in elderly patients was with much complications,operation treatment is still the first choice.The patient's older age,low body mass index,open surgery may increase the mortality rate.ASA grade higher may predict a bad prognosis.The operation of elderly patiens had a high morbidity and mortality,as general surgeon,we should pay more attention to acute abdomen in elderly patients.

Ferroptosis is regarded as a novel and regulatable form of cell death, with its main characteristics being abnormal iron metabolism and the accumulation of lipid peroxides. Although there have been breakthroughs in the research of ferroptosis in tumors and degenerative diseases, its research in skin diseases is relatively scarce. Starting from the development of the concept of ferroptosis, this article expounds the basic characteristics and regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis. In the field of skin diseases, we emphasize the importance of ferroptosis and discuss in detail the research and application of ferroptosis in various skin diseases, aiming to provide effective guidance for the treatment and clinical practice of various skin diseases, and offer new ideas for the future research direction of skin diseases.

Objective To study the epidemiology of hand,foot,and mouth disease (HFMD) and the spectrum of serotypes in the other enterovirus (EV) (non-EV-A71 and non-Coxsaekievirus group A 16,CV-A 16) from 2016 to 2017 in Guangzhou,to provide the basis for its treatment,prevention and control.Methods Enteroviruses universal type,EV-A71 and CV-A16 were detected by real time reverse transeription-polymerase chain reaction in the specimens from HFMD suspected patients from 2016 to 2017.The positive specimens of non-EV-A71 and non-CV-A16 were amplified and sequenced based on 5'-untranslated region (UTR) region.The spectrum of serotypes was analyzed with BLAST in NCBI on the basis of 5'-UTR region.Results A total of 25779 specimens from HFMD patients were collected during 2016-2017,16 300 (63.23 ％) of which were positive.The positive rates of EV-A71,CV-A16,non-EV-A71 and non-CV-A16 were 4.57％ (1 178/25 779),12.70％ (3 274/25 779) and 45.96％ (11 848/25779),respectively.The average positive rate of non-EV-A71 and non-CV-A16 in 2017 was 55.68％,which was higher than that in 2016.Sequence analysis showed that there were 16 genotypes in 95 non-EV-A71 and non-CV-A16 positive specimen,including CV-A6,CV-A10,CV-A4,CV-A2,CV-A8,CV-A12,CV-A9,Coxsakievirus B5 (CV-B5),CV-B2,CV-B4,CV-B3,Echovirus 1 (E1),E16,E30,E2 and E18.CV-A6 (26.32％),and CV-A10 (15.79％) were the most common genotypes,followed by CV-A4 (6.32％)、CV-A8(4.21％),and CV-A2 (4.21％).Conclusions The infection rate of EV-A71 is very low during 2016-2017.From April to July 2016,there is a small peak of CV-A16 infection.The non-EV-A71 and non-CV-A16 enterovirus becomes the main causative agent of HFMD during 2016 to 2017.CV-A6 and CV-A10 are the most prevalent pathogens of non-EV-A71 and non-CV-A16 enterovirus.Research and monitoring of CV-A6,CV-A10 as the main non-EV-A71and non-CV-A16 virus should be strengthened.

Objective:To investigate the epidemiology of pathogens of acute respiratory tract infection (ARTI) in children in Guangzhou area.Methods:A total of 13 610 hospitalized children with ARTI in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2018 to December 2021 were enrolled. Throat swab specimens were collected, and fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed to detect 11 respiratory pathogens, including respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), adenovirus (ADV), parainfluenza virus (PIV), human rhinovirus (HRV), human bocavirus (HBoV), human metapneumovirus (HMPV), enterovirus (EV), influenza A virus (IFA), influenza B virus (IFB), Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) and Chlamydia pneumoniae (CP). Grouping according to age (< one year group, one to < three years group, three to < six years group, six to 14 years group) and season. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:At least one pathogen was detected in 6 331 cases among 13 610 patients, and the overall positive rate was 46.52%. The detection rates from high to low were as follows: RSV (13.75%(1 872/13 610)), ADV (4.82%(656/13 610)), PIV (4.82%(656/13 610)), MP (4.54%(618/13 610)), HRV (3.39%(462/13 610)), HBoV (2.64%(359/13 610)), HMPV (2.59%(352/13 610)), EV (1.76%(239/13 610)), IFA (1.29%(176/13 610)), IFB (0.90%(122/13 610)) and CP (0.30%(41/13 610)). The positive rate of viral detection showed significant differences among different age groups ( χ2=49.91, P<0.001), and the highest positive rate was in the age group of one to
