Objective To explore the effect of constraint-induced movement therapy on upper limbs of hemiplegic cerebral palsy in occupational therapy. Methods 30 children of hemiplegic cerebral palsy were divided into control group (n=15) and observation group (n=15). Both groups received conventional occupational therapy, the observation group received constraint-induced movement therapy additionally. Their upper limb function were assessed before and 6 months after treatment. Results The scores improved in both groups after treatment (P<0.05). The score were significantly higher in observation group than control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Constraint-induced movement therapy can improve the upper limb function of hemiplegic cerebral palsy in occupational therapy.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of occupational therapy on upper limb function in children with hemiplegic cerebral paralysis. Methods38 cases with hemiplegic cerebral spastic paralysis who were 6~36 months old accepted upper limb occupational therapy. The clinical effects on affected limb were evaluated. ResultsThe function of affected limb, including their hands improved after treatment (P<0.01). The incidence of cure was the most in group aged <12 month, the least in 24~36 month group, and it was different among various age groups (P<0.05). ConclusionOccupational therapy can improve the upper limb function of children with hemiplegic cerebral paralysis, especially in those earlier than 1 year age.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of NF-κB and Pglycoprotein(P-gp) in cervical cancer tissue before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NACT). Methods The mRNA and the protein expression levels of NF-κB and P-gp were determined by Real time-PCR and immunohistochemical assay respectively in cancer specimens from 40 cevical cancer patients, which were collected before and after NACT. Results The mRNA expression levels of NF-κB were 50. 340 ± 0. 780 and 67. 595 ± 0. 914 before and after NACT respectively, which showed significant difference statistically ( t = -73. 384 ,P < 0. 01 ). We also found significant difference in the comparison between MDR1 mRNA expression before and after NACT(45. 800 ±0. 636 vs 62. 381 ±0. 743 ,t = -66. 582,P <0. 01 ). The positive rate of NF-κB protein expression before and after NACT were 50% ( 20/40 ), 80% ( 32/40 ) respectively, which showed significant difference statistically( χ2 = 7. 912, P = 0. 005 ). The positive rate of P-gp protein expression after NACT was significantly higher than that before NACT [ 40% ( 16/40 ) vs 70% ( 28/40 ), χ2 = 7. 273, P = 0. 007 ]The mRNA and protein expressions of NF-κB were positively correlated with those of P-gp before and after NACT( r = 0. 408,r = 0. 327 respectively, Ps < 0. 05 ). Conclusion NF-κB and P-gp may play an important role in multi-drug resistance of cervical carcinoma. Chemotherapy drugs in our NACT strategy may induce the activation of NF-κB and multi-drug resistance. Activation of NF-κB may correlate with multi-drug resistance mediated by P-gp.

Objective To explore induced eruption techniques of the impacted maxillary canine with labial medial inclination. Methods A total of 38 cases with upper impacted canines with labial medial inclination were selected. The impacted canine was connected to the buccal hook of the upper first molar band, moved distantly and uprightly and then drawn to the dental arch after the pressure to the adjacent teeth was removed. Results After average 18 months treatment, 38 patients had good functions. The deeper impacted canines in 5 patients were extracted, and then the dental arch spaces closed. The lateral incisors of root resorption in 4 patients were extracted. The premolars in 19 patients were removed, and 10 patients without extractions. Then the impacted canines were moved into dental arch. There was no aggravated root resorption during the treatment process. Conclusion When the maxillary canine with labial medial inclination is impacted, it is moved distantly and uprightly by elastic line connected to the buccal hook of the maxillary first molar band, and then drawn to the dental arch. The process is smoothly and the neighbor teeth are protected.

Objective: To study the corrosion resistance of the ortho do ntic magnets with titanium nitride (TiN) coating. Methods: The m agnets coated TiN film were immersed into artificial saliva at 37 ℃ for two mon ths. During the immersion, the concentration of iron ion in the artificial saliv a was analyzed with atomic absorption spectrophotometry(AAS). After immersion, t he weight change of the magnets was measured.The magnets coated with nickel film and without coating were used as the controls.Results: In all t he groups, iron ion concentration in the artificial saliva increased with the in crease of immersion time(P

Objective To effectively combine the results of resting state regional homogeneity(ReHo) fMRI studies in depression.Methods Literatures between 2003-2016 on fMRI of depression in PubMed,Web of Knowledge,EBSCO host medline,CNKI,CQVIP and Wanfang Med Online were taken as research objects.Screening the relevant data according to the included and excluded standard,then,software of AES-SDM was employed to do Meta analysis,in addition,the age,gender,duration of disease,the year of education and treatment were also analyzed.Results 23 articles met the standard,including 1 036 cases,of which 507 for the depression group,529 for the control group.Meta analysis showed the significant ReHo abnormalities of Default Mode Network(DMN) which centers on left precuneus,left superior frontal gyrus and right cingulate gyrus,in addition,left lenticular nucleus,left postcentral gyrus,left cerebellum and left fusiform gyrus had significant ReHo differences.In the regression analysis,gender,age,duration of disease,years of education,disease severity were all affected factors.The difference of cingulate gyrus was the most stable,and the duration of the disease significantly affected cingulate gyrus (SDM =2.777).Conclusion The abnormalities of DMN which centers on left precuneus,left,medial superior frontal gyrus and right cingulate gyrus are the most consistent in depression,the DMN is closely related to depression.
