Human swine influenza A (H1N1) is a highly transmissible infectious disease, which has spreaded globally and represented a continuous pandemic threat. The novel virus has predominantly affected the children and young adults. Clinical manifestations generally appear mild, but there are still many patients with severe complications leading to hospitalization. According to the current reports, the mortality in the early stages of the pandemic appears no more than seasonal influenza A . Children (especially less than 5years) are considered to be at higher risk of infection and complications. Pediatric patients with a underlying significant chronic disease such as chronic respiratory disease,cardiovascular disease and immunodeficiency disease, are at a higher risk of death. The neuraminidase inhibitors Oseltamivir and Zanamivir are effective for prophylaxis and treatment. Effective vaccines are regarded to be crucial for the control of influenza pandemics. This review focuses on the epidemiological situation, clinical characteristics and management of human swine influenza A (H1N1), so as to provide practical advice for clinicians.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of ambroxol hydrochloride in the treatment of neonatal re-spiratory distress syndrome. METHODS:108 cases of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome were randomly divided into control group and observation group,54 cases in each group. Control group were treated with conventional treatment,such as oxygen inha-lation,anti-infection and nutritional support,observation group was additionally treated with 30 mg/kg Ambroxol hydrochloride in-jection,ivgtt,qd,for continuous treatment of 4-6 d. Clinical efficacy,blood gas indexes [oxygen partial pressure(PaO2),carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2)],12,24 and 48 h after treatment remission time of clinical symptoms,hospitalization time, changes of X-ray film value,tidal volume(VT)and dynamic lung compliance(Cdyn)in 2 groups were compared,and the inci-dence of adverse reactions was observed. RESULTS:The total effective rate in observation group was 94.44%,which was signifi-cantly higher than control group (51.58%),the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05);there was no significant differ-ence in the blood gas indexes in observation group after 12 h(P>0.05),PaO2 was significantly higher than control group and Pa-CO2 was significantly lower than control group 24 and 48 h after treatment,there was significant difference between 2 groups(P<0.05). Remission time of cyanosis,dyspnea,lung moist rales and hospitalization time in observation group were shorter than con-trol group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). X-ray film value,Cdyn and VT levels in observation group were significantly higher than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in observation group was 3.70%,which was significantly lower than control group(18.52%),the difference was statistically signifi-cant(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Ambroxol hydrochloride shows obvious efficacy in the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome,it can improve blood gas indexes and accelerate the recovery from disease,with good safety.

Methods 61 EH patients were enrolled in this study. 29 cases of EH were treated with Irbesartan, 32 cases were treated with Xuefuzhuyu granule and Irbesartan, and 28 normotensive subjects served as control. Color dopplor ultrasound were adopted to measure IMT and LD of carotid. Results After treated for 9～12 months, the IMT and IMT/LD in EH patietns treated by Xuefuzhuyu granule and Irbesartan significantly decreased than those in EH patients treated only by Irbesartan. Conclusion Xuefuzhuyu granule was beneficial to reversing the carotid vascular remodeling in EH patients.

Melanoma is the most aggressive and lethal malignant tumor in skin cancers. Operation resection is used to treat stageⅠ/Ⅱmelanomas, but traditional operation, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy inflicts adverse effects on late-stage melanomas. StageⅢ/Ⅳmelanomas are some of the most ineffectively treated tumors with poor prognosis. As a cancer treatment, targeted immunotherapy in-hibits negative regulatory factors and enhances systemic anti-tumor immune effects. Radiotherapy not only kills tumor cells, but also en-hances systemic immune responses. Recent studies showed that targeted immunotherapy combined with radiotherapy can promote con-trol on local and distant tumors and prolong overall survival. The synergistic effects of these two therapies are superior to a single thera-py. This review summarized the progress on these research fields.

[Summary] Radical prostatectomy, external beam radiation and active surveillance are the main treatments for localized prostate cancer. However, many patients are difficult to accept the psychological burden of active surveillance and the distress caused by potential side effects of radical therapy, including incontinence and erectile dysfunction, which make them limited. With the development of minimally invasive techniques, such as brachytherapy, cryoablation, high-intensity focused ultrasound, photodynamic therapy, and irreversible electroporation, novel procedures are playing an increasingly important role in the treatment of localized prostate cancer with their effective, minimally invasive, and safe advantages. This article mainly reviewed the above several minimally invasive treatment methods.

Objective To explore the risk factors of prognosis for children with acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods Clinical data of 118 children with AKI, including the causes,clinical characteristics, laboratory features, renal pathological findings, treatment and outcome, were reviewed retrospectively. Association between risk factors and prognosis was analyzed. AKI was defined by the new classification criteria of the Acute Kidney Injury Network. Prognostic factors were determined by univariate methods and stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis. Results One hundred and eighteen patients (83 male, 35 female) were enrolled in the study, who admitted in our department between January 1, 2005 and May 31, 2008. Median age at the time of AKI children was 7.5 years (range 1 day-14 years), among whom 28.0% (33 cases) was less than 3.0years, 17.8% (21 cases) between 3.0 and 7.0 years and 54.2% (64 cases) more than 7.0 years.Patients' AKI was classified according to the staging system as follows: 52.5% stage 1, 32.2%stage 2 and 15.3% stage 3. The common causes of AKI children were infectious and autoimmune diseases (39.8%), renal vascular disease (27.1%) and circulatory disturbance (11.9%). Hospital mortality was 21.2%. Multivariate analysis showed that independent risk factors for death were need for mechanical ventilation (OR=51.75, P＜0.01＝, sepsis/septic shock (OR=14.76, P＜0.01＝, severe acidosis (OR=11.38, P＜0,01＝, and white blood cells (WBC) count more than 20.0×109/L (OR=8.51, P＜0.01＝. Conclusion Infectious and autoimmune diseases, renal vascular disease and circulatory disturbance are the common causes of AKI children. The important risk factors of death in AKI children are need for mechanical ventilation, sepsis/septic shock, severe acidosis, and WBC count more than 20.0×109/L.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and outcomes in patients with wake-up stroke.Methods:From January 2019 to December 2019, consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Department of Neurology, Huizhou Municipal Central Hospital were enrolled retrospectively. The modified Rankin Scale was used to evaluate the outcome of patients at 90 d after the onset. 0 to 2 was defined as a good outcome, and >2 was defined as a poor outcome. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the factors affecting the poor outcome of patients with wake-up stroke. Results:A total of 356 patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled, including 97 (27.2%) wake-up stroke, and 259 (72.8%) non-wake-up stroke. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission and the proportion of patients with atrial fibrillation, moderate to severe stroke and cardiogenic embolism in the wake-up stroke group were significantly higher than those of the non-wake-up stroke group, and the proportion of patients with small artery occlusion was significantly lower than that in the non-wake-up stroke group (all P<0.05). Moreover, the proportion of patients with poor outcome in the wake-up stroke group was significantly higher than that in the non-wake-up stroke group (36.1% vs. 24.7%; χ2=4.546, P=0.033). In the wake-up stroke group, 62 patients (63.9%) had a good outcome, and 35 (36.1%) had a poor outcome. The NIHSS score at admission and the proportion of patients with atrial fibrillation and moderate to severe stroke in the subgroup with poor outcome were significantly higher than those in the subgroup with good outcome, and the proportion of patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy was significantly lower than those in the good outcome subgroup (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that moderate to severe stroke (odds ratio [ OR] 6.674, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 2.223-20.034; P=0.001) was independently associated with the poor outcome in patients with wake-up stroke, while intravenous thrombolysis ( OR 0.102, 95% CI 0.017-0.630; P=0.014) and endovascular mechanical thrombectomy ( OR 0.108, 95% CI 0.023-0.506; P=0.005) were independently associated with the good outcome of patients with wake-up stroke. Conclusions:In patients with wake-up stroke, the proportion of cardioembolism is higher, the clinical symptoms are more serious and the incidence of poor outcome is higher. The severity of stroke at admission is associated with poor short-term outcome, and intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular mechanical thrombectomy can improve the outcome in patients with wake-up stroke.
