Analysis of Acute Pancreatitis in Young Age Group

Schizophrenia is a devastating chronic disorder that typically presents in early adult life and impacts on a broad swathe of social and psychological functioning. It is not surprising that psychiatrists have tended to be circumspect about making this ominous diagnosis in children and adolescents. Genuine concerns about the validity of applying ‘adult’ psychotic diagnoses in this young age group, together with the lack of diagnosis-specific interventions, have suggested a cautious approach to diagnosis. Furthermore, the relative rarity of schizophrenia in this age group has meant that most psychiatrists have relatively little experience with ‘atypical’ early presentation of the disorder.

Asthma In Children

It is established that in most of patients the course of atopic bronchial asthma occurs as clinical attacks of expiratory asphyxia repeated both by day and at night. In children aged 1 to 6 the course of this disease is principally slight, medium and grave. In elder age group (715 years) the share ef graver forms of bronchial asthma increases. The disease is determined by increased sensitivity to domestic allergens. Atypical forms are found only in young age group and obviously are not connected with hypersensitivity. The specific immunotherapy is an effective treatment method of the classical atopic bronchial asthma in children aged 7 to 15.

e15096 Background: Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in the United States. As per current screening guidelines, screening should begin by age 50 and be continued till age 75. Routine screening over 75 years is not recommended. Methods: Our primary objective was to compare survival time in patients undergoing colonoscopy aged 75 years or older to those aged 50-74. The study was conducted at Captain James A. Lovell Federal Health Care Center (FHCC), North Chicago, United States between 2002 and 2012. A retrospective chart review was performed for patients who underwent colonoscopy. Mortality in terms of survival time was compared between patients equal or older than 75 versus those aged 50-74 years with similar procedural indications and life expectancy of 5 years or more. Survival analysis was performed via Kaplan Meier curve with log-rank test. Results: A total of 213 patients were included in the study . Fifty one percent of the patients (108) were 50-74 years old (young age group), while 49% (105) were 75 or older (old age group). Patients had colonoscopy done for following indications: 92 (43%) screening colonoscopy, 62 (29.1%) diagnostic colonoscopy and 59 (27.7%) surveillance colonoscopy. There was no statistical difference between the age groups based on indication of colonoscopy (P = 0.899). Overall mean survival time for all patients was 123.6 months (10.3 years). Survival time was significantly higher for young age group with a mean overall survival of 131.1 months (10.9 years). Older age group had a mean overall survival time of 106.9 months (8.9 years). P-value = 0.009. The highest overall mean survival time was observed in patients who were under 75 and had colonoscopy for screening purposes 138.9 months (11.6 years) (P = 0.019). The lowest overall mean survival time was seen in those who were > 75 years and had colonoscopy due to diagnostic purposes 93.6 months(7.8 years). (P = 0.055) Conclusions: Although statistically significant higher survival time was noted in patients younger than 75, older patients also had a survival time of more than 7 years. This will impact the decision to offer screening colonoscopy to older people who will definitely benefit from the test.

Abstract. Suicide is one of the causes of death that occurs in a global scope but always causes divisive perspectives in various circles of society. For most people, suicide is a taboo topic, but not for other groups. The film Monsieur Lazhar (2011) is a film that shows the different perspectives between different age groups, namely the adult age group and the young age group, on a suicide that occurred at an elementary school in Montreal, Canada. This study aims at determining the different perspectives of the two different parties on suicide and the reasons for these differences in views. Pierre Bourdieu’s Champ de Force theory is the lens used in this research. The difference in perspective is influenced by the disposition system which Bourdieu calls the habitus. Habitus operates in a realm (champ). In the film, the domain in question is school. Meanwhile, Durkheim’s theory of suicide was chosen to determine the relationship of social problems to suicide. The method used in this research is content analysis. The data used are the chronological text of the scenes and the transcript of the conversations from the film. From the research, it was found that the school, which is the adult age group, has a counter and stigmatic view of suicide, reinforced by perceptions of psychological problems and social taboos. Meanwhile, students, who are in the young age group, tend to view suicide as a problem related to personal aspects and personal experiences so that they do not have a judgmental attitude like the school.

Background: The incidence of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) has been found to increasing in younger patients. This study was aimed to evaluate the role of outer membrane histopathology and comparison with the clinic-radiological aspects of chronic subdural hematoma in different age groups.Methods: Cases of CSDH admitted to the Neurosurgery department during January 2014 and December 2016 were included in the study. They were analyzed clinically, radiologically like site, size, thickness in computed tomography, the attenuation value and midline shift. Histopathological features were also recorded. Cases of acute and chronic sub dural hematoma which were managed conservatively irrespective of age and sex were excluded from the study.Results: Total 196 patients were included with median age of 66 yrs. The most common histopathological type of membrane was the scar inflammatory membrane (Type IV) in 43% of cases followed by hemorrhagic inflammatory membrane (Type III) in 31% of cases while the scar inflammatory type of membrane (Type II) was in 26% of cases. Young age group patient having less thickness of hematoma (<2cm) and having hyper density on CT scan. Old age group had more thickness(3.2cm) and mixed density with multiple layering.Conclusions: Young age group patient having less thickness of hematoma and hyper density compared to old age group. Recurrence and bilateral disease were more common in old age group associated with brain atrophy. Histopathological study completes the spectrum of CSDH in terms of severity of disease and overall prognosis of patient.

Background: Autopsy examination is mandatory in all unnatural deaths as per law of Nepal and thus all deaths due to drowning are undergone medico legal autopsy. This study aims to analyze the demographic and autopsy characteristics of drowning deaths in cases brought for medico legal autopsy at a major autopsy center of Gandaki province of Nepal. Methods: This study was conducted based on review of database in a period of two years among 53 corpses of drowning related deaths. The demographic data and relevant information from the inquest and autopsy report of such cases were collected and presented. Result: The commonest age group involved in drowning deaths was <20 years, attributing to 22 (41.5%) cases, and with males (41, 77.4%) more common than females. Suicidal drowning (34, 64.2%) was the commonest manner. Maximum (19, 35.8%) deaths occurred in the rainy season and on lakes (34, 64.1%). Conclusion: Drowning deaths were more common among males of young age groups. Most of the drownings occurred during the rainy season, lakes were the common sites of drowning, and the commonest manner was suicidal.

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in English; abstract also in Chinese.The well-documented health benefits of exercise, the introduction of large varieties of sports, the soaring technological advancements in sporting tools and facilities, coupled with the birth of numerous prodigy sports stars, made famous over-night by the help of modem telecommunications, have all led to the increasing popularity of sports amongst the community. This is especially true amongst the young age group. Exercise creates not only a healthier and fitter being, but can enhance a child intellectually, mentally and socially. On the other hand, the risks that arise as the aftermath of increased sports activities cannot be taken lightly. The rising incidence of sports injuries in children has become a matter of concern.運動對身體健康的益處已是眾所皆知，而先進科技的運動產品更加把運動世界帶進另一新領域。現代的資訊配合運動明星不段地出現，使運動變得普及化，並吸引了大量青少年參與。運動可增進兒童的智慧、心理和社交的發展。同時，它也隱藏著創傷的危機。
