Objective:To investigate the latent classes of academic burnout and its relationship with psycho-logical resilience in high school students.Methods:The Academic Burnout Scale for High School Students(ABS-HSS)and the Resilience Scale for Chinese Adolescents(RSCA)were used to investigate the current status of aca-demic burnout and the levels of psychological resilience among 786 high school students,respectively.The latent class analysis(LCA)was conducted to explore the latent classes of academic burnout among high school students,and this study further examined the relationship between academic burnout and psychological resilience by regres-sion mixture modeling(RMM).Results:There were three latent classes,including the low burnout group(69.9％),the low achievement group(9.8％)and the overwhelmed group(20.3％).The regression mixture anal-ysis further indicated that the high school students with lower psychological resilience experienced higher academic burnout(OR=0.22-0.56),and the students with difficulty in emotional control mostly felt overwhelmed in their learning(OR=0.23).Conclusion:These findings suggest that the academic burnout among high school students exhibits distinct categorical characteristics and is closely assoiated with psychological resilience.

Objective To explore the association between nocturnal blood pressure decline rate and chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods In this study,a total of 711 individuals who underwent 24-h ambulatory blood pressure monitoring were divided into control group(n=433)and CHF group(n=278).The characteristics of the study population and nocturnal blood pressure decline rate were compared between CHF group and control group.Restricted spline analysis was utilized to examine the linear or non-linear association between nocturnal blood pressure decline rate and the prevalence of CHF.The relationship between nocturnal blood pressure decline rate and CHF was further investigated based on multivariable Logistic regression model.Results Nocturnal systolic blood pressure decline rate was significantly different in CHF group and control group[(3.3±7.1)mmHg vs.(5.0+6.7)mmHg,P=0.001].No significant difference in nocturnal diastolic blood pressure was found between the two groups[(5.7±7.6)mmHg vs.(6.8±7.2)mmHg,P=0.061].Restricted spline analysis showed a significant linear association between nocturnal systolic blood pressure decline rate and CHF risk.After adjusting for age,sex,smoking,body mass index,24-hour systolic blood pressure,24-hour diastolic blood pressure,type 2 diabetes mellitus and hyperlipidemia,multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that nocturnal systolic blood pressure decline rate was negatively associated with the prevalence of CHF(OR=0.97,95％CI:0.95-0.99;P=0.010).However,no significant association was found between nocturnal diastolic blood pressure decline rate and CHF risk.Conclusion Nocturnal systolic blood pressure decline rate is associated with the prevalence of CHF.Individuals with decreased nocturnal systolic blood pressure decline have a significantly increased risk of CHF.

Acute pancreatitis is a common surgical emergency characterized by severe local or systemic complications during its progression. Diseases of the biliary system are among the serious local complications of acute pancreatitis, primarily including acute acalculous cholecystitis (AAC) and biliary stricture. AAC often occurs in the later stages of acute pancreatitis, exacerbating systemic inflammation and leading to organ failure and life-threatening conditions in severe cases. Biliary stricture is a rare but serious long-term complication of acute pancreatitis, which can induce cholangitis, progressive liver function impairment, and secondary biliary cirrhosis. Due to the clinical symptoms of acute pancreatitis that can mask biliary system diseases, some patients may not receive timely diagnosis and treatment for concurrent biliary issues during the onset of acute pancreatitis, which can be life-threatening in severe cases. Currently, the ideal treatment strategy for biliary system complications secondary to acute pancreatitis remains unclear, lacking definitive guidelines or consensus. This article integrates recent research developments from both domestic and international studies to elucidate the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment strategies for biliary system complications secondary to acute pancreatitis.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of biliary system diseases complicated by severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) and the risk factors.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 159 SAP patients admitted to the Department of Pancreatic and Biliary Surgery,the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from January 2019 to October 2024. There were 105 male cases, 54 female cases;aged (42.3±10.8)years (range:20 to 71 years). Grouping was performed according to the presence or absence of concurrent acute acalculous cholecystitis (AAC) and biliary stricture. There were 58 cases in the AAC group,including 40 males and 18 females;aged (43.8±10.6) years (range:28 to 71 years);101 cases in the non-AAC group,including 64 males and 37 females;aged (41.5±10.8) years (range:20 to 64 years);there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of admission total bilirubin,Balthazar-CTSI score,fasting time,and the proportions of concurrent shock and sepsis (all P<0.05);the time from onset of SAP to diagnosis of AAC( M (IQR)) was 10.5 (13.3) days (range: 3 to 34 days). There were 15 cases in the biliary stricture group,including 13 males and 2 females;age (46.5±10.0) years (range:33 to 63 years);141 cases in the non-biliary stricture group,including 89 males and 52 females;age (41.9±10.8) years (range: 20 to 71 years); there were statistically significant differences between the two groups in the proportions of infected pancreatic necrosis,pancreatic head necrosis,and lower extremity venous thrombosis (all P<0.05);the time from the onset of SAP to the diagnosis of biliary stenosis in patients with biliary stenosis was 2.0 (3.0) months (range: 1 to 19 months). Univariate analysis was performed using independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ 2 test,or Fisher′s exact probability method,and variables with P<0.05 in univariate analysis were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic and predictive value of the multivariate logistic regression model for AAC and biliary stricture. Results:There were statistically significant differences in fasting time,Balthazar-CTSI score,admission total bilirubin,and the proportions of concurrent shock and sepsis between the AAC group and non-AAC group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that admission total bilirubin ( OR=1.033,95% CI: 1.010 to 1.058, P=0.004),Balthazar-CTSI score ( OR=1.276,95% CI: 1.036 to 1.572, P=0.022),fasting time ( OR=1.127,95% CI: 1.044 to 1.216, P=0.002), and sepsis ( OR=4.033, 95% CI: 1.419 to 11.462, P=0.009) were independent risk factors for AAC complicated by SAP. The area under the curve (AUC) of the ROC curve was 0.820 (95% CI: 0.752 to 0.888). There were statistically significant differences in the proportions of infected pancreatic necrosis,pancreatic head necrosis,and lower extremity venous thrombosis between the biliary stricture group and non-biliary stricture group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic analysis showed that infected pancreatic necrosis ( OR=7.376,95% CI:1.566 to 37.750, P=0.012) and pancreatic head necrosis ( OR=3.898,95% CI:1.180 to 12.877, P=0.026) were independent risk factors for biliary stricture complicated by SAP. The AUC of the ROC curve was 0.806 (95% CI:0.715 to 0.898). Conclusions:AAC typically occurs in the early stage of SAP,and biliary stricture usually occurs in the late stage of SAP. Admission total bilirubin,Balthazar-CTSI score,fasting duration,and concurrent sepsis are independent risk factors for AAC complicating SAP. Infected pancreatic necrosis and pancreatic head necrosis are independent risk factors for biliary stricture complicating SAP.

Objective:To discuss the risk factors for postoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients undergoing pancreatic surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 488 patients who underwent pancreatectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from Jan 2016 to Sep 2024 was retrospectively analyzed.Results:One hundred and sixteen patients (23.8%) developed VTE after pancreatic surgery. Logistic analysis showed that advanced age, abdominal surgery history, high preoperative white blood cell count, high platelet lymphocyte ratio (PLR), distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy, open surgery, conversion to open surgery, and long surgery duration were risk factors.Nomogram prediction model based on the above risk factors was constructed and the area under the ROC curve was subsequently measured to be 0.781 (95% CI: 0.731-0.830). Conclusion:The prevention and control of VTE should be strengthened for patients undergoing pancreatic surgery with advanced age, abdominal surgery history, high preoperative white blood cell count, high PLR, distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy, open surgery, conversion to open surgery, and long surgery duration.
