BACKGROUND Adolescent/adult pancreatoblastoma(PB)is an uncommon malignant pancreatic tumor.The paucity of data stemming from the rarity of this disease leads to minimal generalized guidelines regarding its diagnosis and treatment.There is a limited number of case reports in the literature and there has been no recent analysis of the literature to consolidate their common features.The purpose of the featured study is to review the available cases of adolescent/adult PB and analyze the common genetic features,histologic features,treatment regimens,tumor sizes,tumor locations,and areas of metastasis to advance ongoing research and better understand and treat this rare condition.AIM To present a patient case and systematically review all available cases in the literature to consolidate the common physical,genetic,and histologic features of PB.METHODS This is a systematic review of the literature with a case study.A total of 89 patient cases were discovered in the literature database for adolescent/adult PB,all of which were reviewed and are included in our research.Patients aged 16-18 were considered adolescent and patients aged greater than 18 were considered adult.Adolescents and adults were grouped together for the purpose of this study.The patient from the case report was seen in a community hospital setting.RESULTS The 89 cases analyzed from the literature were found in 51 references(our case report included),which were consolidated into the six categories mentioned above.A plurality of references reports PB in the head of the pancreas,4.0-10.0 cm in size,and with the most common site of metastasis to the liver.Histology studies most commonly included acinar groups,squamous corpuscles/nests,cytokeratin,chromogranin,trypsin,chymotrypsin,and synaptophysin.Genetic studies most commonly included adenomatous polyposis coli,B-cell lymphoma/leukemia 10,catenin beta 1,and Wnt/beta-catenin mutations.The mainstay of treatment was surgery with chemotherapy typically including cisplatin,carboplatin,doxorubicin,5 fluorouracil,mitomycin,bleomycin,gemcitabine,and vindesine.Radiation was also often used.CONCLUSION Common pancreatoblastoma features include acinar groups,chromogranin,chymotrypsin,squamous corpuscles,synaptophysin and trypsin on histology and adenomatous polyposis coli,B-cell lymphoma/leukemia 10,catenin beta 1,and Wnt/beta-catenin genetic mutations. 展开更多

The presence of endogenous neural stem/progenitor cells in the adult mammalian brain suggests that the central nervous system can be repaired and regenerated after injury.However,whether it is possible to stimulate neurogenesis and reconstruct cortical layers II to VI in non-neurogenic regions,such as the cortex,remains unknown.In this study,we implanted a hyaluronic acid collagen gel loaded with basic fibroblast growth factor into the motor cortex immediately following traumatic injury.Our findings reveal that this gel effectively stimulated the proliferation and migration of endogenous neural stem/progenitor cells,as well as their differentiation into mature and functionally integrated neurons.Importantly,these new neurons reconstructed the architecture of cortical layers II to VI,integrated into the existing neural circuitry,and ultimately led to improved brain function.These findings offer novel insight into potential clinical treatments for traumatic cerebral cortex injuries. 展开更多

Autoimmune enteropathy(AIE)is a rare immune mediated disorder primarily affecting children,characterized by chronic diarrhea,malabsorption,vomiting,weight loss and villous atrophy.It has also been observed in adults presenting diagnostic and treatment challenges due to its overlap with other gastrointestinal disorders such as celiac disease.Initial diagnostic criteria for AIE include small bowel villous atrophy,lack of response to dietary restrictions,presence of anti-enterocyte antibodies,and predisposition to autoimmunity without severe immu-nodeficiency.Refined criteria emphasize characteristic histological findings and exclusion of other causes of villous atrophy.AIE is associated with various autoimmune disorders and can present with overlapping features with Celiac disease,including villous atrophy but without significant intraepithelial lympho-cytosis.Treatment primarily involves immunosuppression using corticosteroids,calcineurin inhibitors,and anti-tumor necrosis factor therapy,alongside nutri-tional support.Despite the challenges,understanding AIE’s diverse manifest-ations and improving diagnostic criteria are essential for effective management and improved patient outcome.Further research is needed to elucidate the pathogenesis,disease progression and long-term outcomes of AIE. 展开更多

Adolescence and the journey to adulthood involves exciting opportunities as well as psychosocial stress for young people growing up.These normal experiences are potentially magnified for teenagers living with chronic illness or disability and their families.Advances in care have improved survival for children with a variety of serious chronic medical conditions such that many who may once have died in childhood now survive well into adulthood with ongoing morbidity.For those with highly complex needs,care is often provided at major paediatric hospitals with expertise,specially trained personnel,and resources to support young people and their families for the first decades of life.At the end of adolescence,however,it is generally appropriate and necessary for young adults and their caregivers to transition to the care of clinicians trained in the care of adults at general hospitals.While there are some well-managed models to support this journey of transition,these are often specific to certain conditions and usually do not involve intensive care.Many patients may encounter considerable challenges during this period.Difficulties may include the loss of established therapeutic relationships,a perception of austerity and reduced amenity in facilities oriented to caring for adult patients,and care by clinicians with less experience with more common paediatric conditions.In addition,there is a risk of potential conflict between clinicians and families regarding goals of care in the event of a critical illness when it occurs in a young adult with major disability and long-term health issues.These challenges present genuine opportunities to better understand the transition from paediatric to adult-based care and to improve processes that assist clinicians who support patients and families as they shift between healthcare settings. 展开更多

Background Unhealthy lifestyles have a considerable impact on the incidence of dementia.Skipping breakfast disturbs energy homeostasis and impairs brain function.In this study,we investigated the association between breakfast skipping and cognitive performance among community-dwelling adults.Methods We recruited 859 community-dwelling adults aged≥60 years from January 1 to December 31,2021.Participants’sociodemographic information and breakfast skipping habits were self-reported.Participants were followed up for 36 months and cognitive function was assessed using the Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)with an interval of 18 months.Trajectories of cognitive change were compared between individuals with and without breakfast skipping.To reduce the risk of bias owing to unmatched sample sizes between the groups,we conducted 1:1 propensity score matching(PSM)based on age,sex,education level,and ApoE genotype.Results At baseline and 18-month follow-up,no difference was found in MMSE scores between participants with and without breakfast skipping.However,those who habitually skipped breakfast had significantly lower MMSE scores than those who did not at 36-month follow-up.Individuals with habitual breakfast skipping had a steeper rate of cognitive decline than those without habitual breakfast skipping during follow-up.Breakfast skipping was a risk factor for longitudinal cognitive decline,defined as a decrease in MMSE scores of≥3,adjusted for age,sex,education,body mass index,ApoEε4 carrier status,hypertension,diabetes,and hyperlipidemia.At the last follow-up,participants who habitually skipped breakfast had significantly higher levels of ptau181 and NfL than those who did not.In the PSM cohort,similar findings were obtained regarding cognitive trajectories and plasma biomarkers.Conclusion Breakfast skipping was linked to an increased risk of long-term cognitive decline and neurodegeneration among older adults.The link between unhealthy dietary habits and cognitive decline may be attributed to a deficiency in neurorestoration resulting from inadequate energy consumption. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Intussusception is the invagination of a segment of the bowel into an adjacent segment.It is the most common cause of intestinal obstruction in children,but in adults,it is rare,accounting for 1%of all intestinal obstructions and 5%of all intussusceptions,with malignancy being the most common cause.In the past,it was typically diagnosed intraoperatively.However,with the availability of computed tomography for abdominal imaging,recognizing the condition's signs has become crucial.Surgical intervention is essential for managing neoplastic cases and their complications.CASE SUMMARY A 45-year-old female presented with severe abdominal pain encompassing her entire abdomen,abdominal distension,vomiting,and persistent constipation.Over the past two months,she has also experienced considerable weight loss.After an initial history review,examination,and imaging investigations,the patient was diagnosed with ileo cecal intussusception resulting from a colo rectal mass located in the cecum and ascending colon.This condition was surgically managed through an extended right hemi colectomy.CONCLUSION Intussusception is uncommon in adults,but it should be considered in patients with intestinal obstruction.Surgical intervention is essential. 展开更多

Split liver transplantation(SLT) is a promising way to ameliorate organ shortages. However, the safety and efficacy of SLT are still controversial. The aim of this study was to assess the clinical outcome of SLT in liver cancer patients at our center. METHODS: A total of 74 patients who received liver transplantation at a tertiary hospital from March 2019 to July 2023 were retrospectively studied, of whom 37 recipients underwent SLT and 37 recipients underwent whole-graft liver transplantation(WGLT). Clinical data were analyzed and compared between patients who underwent SLT and WGLT.RESULTS: SLT and WGLT were successfully performed, with no intraoperative transplantrelated mortality. Postoperatively, no significant differences in total bilirubin(TB, P=0.266), alanine transaminase(ALT, P=0.403) and aspartate transaminase(AST, P=0.160) levels within 30 d were detected between the two groups. The transplant-related mortality rates were 8.1% in the SLT group and 5.4% in the WGLT group within 30 d of surgery(P=1.000), and 10.8% and 8.1%, respectively, at 90 d after surgery(P=1.000). There were no significant differences in overall survival(OS) and progress-free survival(PFS) between the SLT and WGLT groups(P=0.910, P=0.190). CONCLUSION: Our results show that SLT does not imply additional risks in treating liver cancer compared with WGLT. 展开更多

Background:Muscular strength is a powerful marker of current health status and robust predictor of age-related disease and disability.Handgrip strength(HGS)using isometric dynamometry is a convenient,feasible,and widely used method of assessing muscular strength among people of all ages.While adult HGS norms have been published for many countries,no study has yet synthesized available data to produce international norms.The objective of this study was to generate international sex-and age-specific norms for absolute and body size-normalized HGS across the adult lifespan.Methods:Systematic searches were conducted in 6 databases/web search engines(MEDLINE,SPORTDiscus,Embase,Web of Science,CINAHL,and Google Scholar)up to December 1,2023.We included full-text peer-reviewed observational studies that reported normative HGS data for adults aged ≥20 years by sex and age.Pseudo data were generated using Monte Carlo simulation following harmonization for methodo-logical variation.Population-weighted Generalized Additive Models for Location,Scale,and Shape were used to develop sex-and age-specific norms for absolute HGS(kg)and HGS normalized by height(Ht,m)squared(i.e.,HGS/Ht^(2)in kg/m^(2)).Norms were tabulated as percentile values(5th to 95th)and visualized as smoothed percentile curves.Results:We included data from 100 unique observational studies representing 2,405,863 adults(51.9%female)aged 20 to 100+years from 69 countries and regions tested from the year 2000 onward.On average,absolute and normalized HGS values negligibly improved throughout early adulthood,peaked from age 3039 years(at 49.7 kg(males)and 29.7 kg(females)for absolute HGS or 16.3 kg/m^(2)(males)and 11.3 kg/m^(2)(females)for HGS/Ht^(2)),and declined afterwards.The age-related decline in HGS accelerated from middle to late adulthood and was slightly larger for males than for females during middle adulthood.Conclusion:This study provides the world’s largest and most geographically comprehensive international norms for adult HGS by sex and age.These norms have utility for global peer-comparisons,health screening,and surveillance. 展开更多

Background:Cardiorespiratory fitness(CRF)is a powerful health marker recommended by the American Heart Association as a clinical vital sign.Comparing the predictive validity of objectively measured CRF(the"gold standara")and estimated CRF is clinically relevant because estimated CRF is more feasible.Our objective was to meta-analyze cohort studies to compare the associations of objectively measured,exerciseestimated,and non-exercise-estimated CRF with all-cause and cardiovascular disease(CVD)mortality in adults.Methods:Systematic searches were conducted in 9 databases(MEDLINE,SPORTDiscus,Embase,Scopus,PsycINFO,Web of Science,PubMed,CINAHL,and the Cochrane Library)up to April 11,2024.We included full-text refereed cohort studies published in English that quantified the association(using risk estimates with 95%confidence intervals(95%CIs))of objectively measured,exercise-estimated,and non-exercise-estimated CRF with all-cause and CVD mortality in adults.CRF was expressed as metabolic equivalents(METs)of task.Pooled relative risks(RR)for all-cause and CVD mortality per 1-MET(3.5 mL/kg/min)higher level of CRF were quantified using random-effects models.Results:Forty-two studies representing 35 cohorts and 3,813,484 observations(81%male)(362,771 all-cause and 56,471 CVD deaths)were included.The pooled RRs for all-cause and CVD mortality per higher MET were 0.86(95%CI:0.83-0.88)and 0.84(95%CI:0.80-0.87),respectively.For both all-cause and CVD mortality,there were no statistically significant differences in RR per higher MET between objectively measured(RR range:0.86-0.90)and maximal exercise-estimated(RR range:0.85-0.86),submaximal exercise-estimated(RR range:0.91-0.94),and non-exercise-estimated CRF(RR range:0.81-0.85).Conclusion:Objectively measured and estimated CRF showed similar dose-response associations for all-cause and CVD mortality in adults.Estimated CRF could provide a practical and robust alternative to objectively measured CRF for assessing mortality risk across diverse populations.Our findings underscore the health-related benefits of higher CRF and advocate for its integration into clinical practice to enhance risk stratification. 展开更多

Subjective well-being is a key indicator of quality of life and a crucial factor for successful aging among older adults.However,few studies have explored the subjective well-being among older adults from the perspective of digital literacy.Therefore,this study explores the relationship between digital literacy and subjective well-being using data on 4270 older adults from the 2020 China Family Panel Studies(CFPS)dataset.PROCESS mediation analysis results indicated digital literacy is associated with higher subjective well-being among the older adults.Digital literacy was associated with the frequency of physical exercise and consumption.Moreover,Digital literacy can also enhance the subjective well-being among older adults by increasing the frequency of physical exercise,and consumption,and a chain mediator subjective well-being.These findings align with the theoretical framework of digital health literacy.Theory which posits that health information obtained through digital literacy can help older adults better engage in healthy lifestyles,thereby enhancing their quality of life.These findings hold significant practical implications for enhancing the subjective well-being among older adults and advancing the development of successful aging. 展开更多
