Objective To study the correlation between intelligence and gross motor function for children with cerebral palsy. Methods 90 children with cerebral palsy (CP) were assessed with Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS), Wechsler preschool and primary scale of intelligence (WPPSI), Wechsler intelligence scale for children (WISC-R) and analyzed statistically. Results The intelligence quotient (IQ) and verbal intelligence quotient (VIQ) of the children with athetotic cerebral palsy were normal, but lower than the average level of normal children(P<0.05). The IQ, VIQ and performance intelligence quotient (PIQ) of the children with spastic cerebral palsy were below the normal (P<0.05), the difference between VIQ and PIQ was significant (P<0.05). For children with spastic cerebral palsy, there was linear correlation between intelligence and the class of GMFCS, and for children with athetotic cerebral palsy there was no linear correlation. Conclusion There were differences of intelligence level and intelligence structure in different types of cerebral palsy, the correlation between intelligence and the class of GMFCS were also different in different types of cerebral palsy.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between the clinical medical college students' time investment (including study, activities, entertainment and exercise) and general self-efficacy (GSE) in a medical university in Liaoning province, China.Methods:The first-year medical students were asked to participate the survey. Their GSE was measured by using general self-efficacy scale (GSES) in 2018. One year later, the independent variable table was used to investigate the extracurricular activity time, and 683 valid questionnaires were collected. Ordered logistic regression method was used to analyze the correlation between students' extracurricular activities and GSE.Results:Medical students' GSE was positively associated with their time in extracurricular study ( OR = 1.94, 95%CI = 1.49-2.54), volunteer activities ( OR=1.36, 95%CI = 1.01-1.83), and physical activities ( OR = 1.37, 95%CI = 1.01-1.85). However, there was no significant correlation with the time in activities organized by students ( OR = 1.09, 95%CI = 0.79-1.50) or activities organized by school ( OR = 1.15, 95%CI = 0.84-1.59). Furthermore, compared with clinical students of "5+3" year program, the 5-year program clinical students had a stronger correlation between medical students' GSE and the input of extracurricular study time. Conclusion:There is a positive correlation between medical students' GSE and their extracurricular time investment, which indicates that increasing medical students' GSE could be an effective method to improve their extracurricular time investment and eventually improve their comprehensive quality.

BACKGROUND:Bilateral-sagitta-split-ramus-osteotomy (BSSRO) has become a conventional method to correct facial deformities, and the finite element method is a significant way to study biomechanics of the mandible and temporomandibular joint (TMJ) after BSSRO. OBJECTIVE: To establish a precise and high simulation model of mandible containing TMJ after BSSRO with internal fixation, which is the base to study the biomechanics of the mandible and TMJ after BSSRO. METHODS: Spiral CT scan was used to get the data of DICOM that were input into MIMICS to establish the three-dimensional model of the mandible. The three-dimensional model was wrapped into a single closed shel for mesh generation and conversion in ANSYS. Then, the model was input into the ANSYS software for temporomandibular joint reconstruction and simulation of BSSRO and internal fixation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The three-dimensional finite element model of mandible containing TMJ after BSSRO was established using MIMICS and ANSYS. This model had biological similarity and geometric similarity in comparison with the human tissues. The model could undergo various internal fixations through antedisplacement, retroposition and rotational movement of the distal end. Based on different experimental purposes, the established model can apply a load to al parts to study changes in stress and displacement of different tissues after BSSRO and internal fixation, and it also can be used to study the effect of different fixation materials on the rear stability after internal fixation.

Background: Endometrial carcinoma (EC) is one of the most common malignant tumors of the female reproductive tract, involving multiple molecular alterations. Circular RNA (circRNA) dysregulation is frequently observed in EC tissues, suggesting the involvement of circRNA in EC development. We aimed to investigate the role of circ_0075960 in EC. Methods: Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and western blot assays were applied for expression analysis. CCK-8, EdU, colony formation, flow cytometry and wound healing assays were employed for functional analysis. The predicted binding relationship between miR-202-5p and circ_0075960 or CTNND1 was validated by dual-luciferase reporter experiment. In vivo animal models were constructed in nude mice to verify the role of circ_0075960 in tumor growth. Results: Circ_0075960 and CTNND1 were upregulated, while miR-202-5p was downregulated in EC. Knockdown of circ_0075960 induced EC cell apoptosis, suppressed cell proliferation and migration, and repressed tumor growth in animal models. MiR-202-5p was targeted by circ_0075960 and it directly bound to CTNND1 3’UTR. The inhibition of circ_0075960 knockdown or miR-202-5p enrichment on EC cell proliferation and migration was reversed by miR-202-5p depletion or CTNND1 overexpression, respectively. Circ_0075960 targeted miR-202-5p to positively regulate CTNND1 expression. Moreover, circ_0075960 knockdown weakened the activity of Wnt/β-catenin signaling via targeting the miR-202-5p/CTNND1 axis. Conclusion Circ_0075960 targets the miR-202-5p/CTNND1 axis to modulate Wnt/β-catenin signaling activity, thus contributing to the malignant development of EC.

Anemia of neonate,especially in premature infants,is a common phenomenon in newborns and has attracted more and more attention in the academic world.There are various reasons for anemia.Besides the common pathophysiological basis such as iron deficiency and erythropoietin deficiency,blood group incompatibility,hemolysis and iatrogenic blood loss are also important factors leading to anemia of neonates.Preventive measures for neonatal ane-mia include delayed ligation of the umbilical cord,the application of erythropoietin and the effective reduction of iatro-genic blood loss.At present,blood transfusion is still one of the main treatments for neonatal anemia.However,there are still controversies about transfusion indications as well as it′s short-term and long-term side effects.

Objective: To understand literacy development of school-aged children of grade 2-5 and its influencing factors in Guangzhou,and to provide a reference for the reform of the teaching of Chinese subject. Methods: By using cluster sampling method, 1 661 school-age children from grade 2 to grade 5 from 5 primary schools in Guangzhou were selected. The self-designed questionnaire was used to obtain demographic data of the participants. The Primary School Literacy Assessment Scale and the Pupil Rating Scale Revised Screening for Learning Disabilities was used to evaluate the literacy and the cognitive characteristics of participants. Results: The average literacy of children of grade 2 to grade 5 in Guangzhou was as follows: grade 2 was (1 159±295), grade 3 was (1 919±394), grade 4 was (2 599±365), grade 5 was (2 947±303), higher than the norm(P<0.01). The average literacy of grade 2 students was lower than the national curriculum requirements while students of grade 3 to grade 5 met the requirements. Univariate analysis found differences in literacy among school-age children based on gender, reading experience before age 6, and parental education background (P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that grade (β=607.04), preschool reading experience (β=109.89), father’s education (β=27.14), language factor (β=27.21), social behavior (β=16.03) was positively correlated with literacy in boys (P<0.05). Grade (β=603.53), auditory comprehension and memory (β=29.39), language factor (β=16.74) was positively correlated with the literacy of girls (P<0.05), while time and orientation judgments were negatively correlated with the literacy of both boys (β=-18.95) and girls (β=-21.93) (P<0.05). Conclusion The literacy level of school-age children in grade 2 to 5 in Guangzhou has reached the national literacy requirements with students in grade 2 being relatively lower. Literacy is related to grade, preschool reading experience, father’s education, and child’s cognitive characteristics. Factors affecting literacy in boys and girls are different. Literacy education should vary according to gender.
