Objective To apply the Comprehensive Function Assessment for Disabled Children in family care for children with cerebral palsy. Methods From May, 2014 to May, 2015, 120 cerebral palsy children were equally divided into control group and observation group. The control group accepted routine rehabilitation, and the observation group accepted targeted family rehabilitation program based on the evaluation of Comprehensive Function Assessment for Disabled Children. They were assessed with Comprehensive Function Assessment for Disabled Children before and three months after rehabilitation. Results The scores of cognitive function, language function, exercise abil-ity, self-care movement and social adaptation ability improved in both groups after rehabilitation (t>2.498, P<0.05), and improved more in the observation group than in the control group (t>2.062, P<0.05). Conclusion The application of Comprehensive Function Assessment for Disabled Children may help to plan a targeted rehabilitation nursing program for the nurses and the parents, that benefits the rehabilitation for children with cerebral palsy.

Objective:
To investigate the number and distribution of dendritic cells (DCs), macrophages and M2 macrophages in renal tissues of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and their correlation with clinicopathological parameters, and explore its role in the progression of IgAN.
Methods:
Renal tissue samples from 42 patients aged ≥18 years with IgAN were collected by kidney biopsy in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from January 2018 to June 2018. The patients were divided into different groups according to Oxford classification and Lee grade classification criteria. The distribution and number of DCs (CD209), macrophages (CD68) and M2 macrophages (CD68 and CD206) were detected by immunohistochemistry. Spearman correlation test was used to analyze the correlation between the number of DCs and macrophages in renal tissues and clinical pathological parameters.
Results:
The number of DCs in the glomeruli of the M1, T0 and C1 groups increased significantly compared with the M0, T1 and C0 groups, and the number of DCs in the renal interstitium of the T1 group increased significantly compared with the T0 group (all
