Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of an outbreak of influenza A H1N1 in a specialized psychiatric hospital in Shantou City,Guangdong Province,provide scientific basis for the pre-vention and control of respiratory infectious diseases in psychiatric health institutions.Methods Data of infection cases in this hospital in May 1-27,2024 were collected with on-site epidemiological investigation method,and were analyzed with descriptive epidemiological methods.The specimens of the cases were performed nucleic acid testing by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)method.Results A total of 43 influenza-like cases in this outbreak have been reported,with an incidence of 16.67%,including 42 hospitalized patients and 1 healthcare worker.Among the 42 hospitalized patients,there were 41 males,with an incidence of 35.04%and 1 female with an incidence of 2.22%,there was a statistically significant difference in incidence between hospitalized patients of different genders(x2=18.23,P<0.001).The epidemic curve shows that after the first case appeared on May 8,2024,the number of cases increased significantly from May 13,and reached its peak on May 17(n=17).31 pa-tients' throat swab specimens were collected,out of which 29(93.55%)were positive for influenza A H1N1 virus nucleic acid and 2(6.45%)were negative.Conclusion This epidemic is an outbreak of influenza A H1N1 in a psy-chiatric health institution,the epidemic curve shows a point source human-to-human transmission mode.Failure to effectively identify and isolate cases in the early stage can lead to the spread of the epidemic across floors and wards.It is necessary to regularly organize hospitalized patients and healthcare workers to receive influenza vaccines,strict-ly implement the health monitoring system,strengthen the control of external personnel,and enhance the early de-tection and emergency response capabilities for infectious disease outbreaks.

Background and Aims:Pancreatic cancer is one of the most aggressive malignancies of the digestive system and is associated with an inferior prognosis.In recent years,its incidence has shown a trend toward younger onset.Early-onset pancreatic cancer(EOPC),defined as pancreatic cancer diagnosed at≤50 years of age,has been increasing annually and may possess distinct biological and prognostic characteristics.Given the limited data from China,this study aimed to investigate the clinicopathological features and prognostic outcomes of EOPC patients.Methods:Clinical data of 113 patients with EOPC admitted to Xiangya Hospital,Central South University,from January 2017 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Variables included demographic characteristics,clinicopathological features,and survival information.Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted,and differences in survival between the surgical and non-surgical groups were compared.Results:The median age at diagnosis was 46(42-49)years,and males accounted for 65.49%of cases.Blood type A(40.71%)and type O(34.51%)were most common.The main presenting symptoms were abdominal pain(69.91%),weight loss(62.83%),jaundice(43.36%),and abdominal distension(36.28%).Imaging findings showed bile duct dilation in 32.74%,pancreatic duct dilation in 39.82%,vascular invasion in 59.29%,and distant metastasis in 52.21%of patients.Histopathology revealed that adenocarcinoma and ductal adenocarcinoma accounted for 93.81%of all cases,with predominantly moderate or poor differentiation(76.10%).Tumors were the most frequently located in the pancreatic head(65.42%).TNM staging showed lymph node metastasis in 77.88%and stage Ⅳ disease in 52.21%.Laboratory tests demonstrated markedly elevated CA19-9 levels.Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated a median overall survival of 18.6 months for the entire cohort,with significantly longer survival in the surgical group compared with the non-surgical group(29.4 months vs.13.8 months,P=0.001 5).Conclusion:EOPC predominantly affects males and tends to arise in the pancreatic head.It is often diagnosed at an advanced stage or with distant metastasis and is characterized by poor differentiation and strong invasiveness.Surgical resection markedly improves survival and remains the key to prolonged prognosis.Young individuals presenting with unexplained abdominal pain,weight loss,or jaundice should be carefully evaluated through imaging to enable early diagnosis and timely surgical intervention.Future multicenter,large-sample prospective studies are warranted to validate these findings further.

In 2025,the International Association of Pancreatology(IAP),in collaboration with the American Pancreatic Association,European Pancreatic Club,Indian Pancreas Club,and Japan Pancreas Society,released the International Association of Pancreatology revised guidelines on acute pancreatitis 2025.This edition represents a comprehensive revision of the 2013 guidelines,based on high-quality evidence accumulated over the past decade,particularly randomized controlled trials.The guidelines encompass 18 key areas-including pain management,fluid therapy,nutritional support,management of infected necrosis,complication control,discharge and follow-up,and recurrence prevention-offering a total of 96 recommendations that emphasize individualized treatment.These updates provide important guidance for standardizing clinical practice and improving outcomes in acute pancreatitis,while also indicating future research directions such as the development of targeted therapies.However,some recommendations remain limited by lower evidence quality,uncertain applicability in specific clinical settings,and insufficient consideration of economic burden and cost-effectiveness.

Objective To observe the effect of high-dose vitamin C on MMP2 expression and invasive ability in PANC-1. Methods Transwell invasion assay was used to compare the invasive ability of PANC-1 cells in different concentrations of vitamin C treated groups. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect and compare the levels of MMP2 mRNA and protein expression in each group. Results Compared with the 0mM vitamin C treated group, the mRNA expression of MMP2 was significantly decreased in 1.0,5.0,10. 0mM group(0. 510 ±0. 004 vs 0. 792 ±0. 006, 0. 391 ±0. 007 vs 0. 792 ±0. 006, 0. 282 ±0. 008vs 0. 792 ± 0. 006, P < 0. 05 ). Compared with the 0mM vitamin C treated group, the protein expression of MMP2 was significantly decreased in 1.0,5.0,10. 0mM group(0. 519 ±0. 004 vs 0. 761 ±0. 014,0. 310 ±0. 007 vs 0. 761 ±0. 014,0. 297 ±0. 008 vs 0. 761 ±0. 014, P <0. 05). Compared with the 0mM vitamin C treated group, the invaded cell number was significantly decreased in 1.0,5.0,10. 0mM groups ( 452 ± 22 vs653 ± 28,340 ± 32 vs 653 ± 28,409 ± 33 vs 653 ± 28, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion High-dose vitamin C can decrease the expression of MMP2 in PANC-1 cells, and weaken its invasive ability.

Objective To explore the measures to prevent acute encephalocele during the decompressive craniotomy in the patients with severe brain injury.Methods The clinical data of 28 patients with severe brain injury,who were treated by extended fronto-temporo-prietal craniotomy were analyzed retrospectively.The sequential dural ineision(SDI)was performed during the operation in all the patients.Results The catastrophic encephalocele did not occur in all the cases even if very hish intracranial pressure wag caused by fulminant brain swelling in some cases.The total removal of hematomas was achieved in 19 cases,but there still was extensive hemorrhage in the operative fieId in 4 eases and secondary intracranial hematomas in the other regions in 5 cases observed on postoperative CT scan.The disappeared basal cistern and the third ventricle could be observed again in 12 eases.According to GOS,9 patienm obrained good recovery,5 was moderately disabled,4 were severely disabled,2 vegetatively survived,and 8 died.Condusion The encephalocele,which is easily produced by rapid decompression,is prevented by eontrollable decompression as early as possible and SDI in the patients with especially severe brain injury.
