Objective To investigate current status of preschool children's social competence and its relation to tempera-ment type. Methods A total of 1 251 children participated in this study. The questionnaire was conducted and the children were assessed usinginfant-junior middle school student's ability of social life scaleandchildren's temperament scale. Results No significant gender difference was observed in total score of social competence (P>0.05). The total score of live independently was higher in girls as compared to boys (P<0.05). A significant gender difference was observed in classified scores of social competence (P<0.05). Girls with excellent or better-than-normal social competence were more than boys (P<0.05). The distribu-tion of the temperament type in preschool children were the difficult-to-raise type (8.1%), the start-slow type (15.4%), the stan-dard type (69.0%) and the easy-to-raise type (7.5%). There was statistically gender significance (P<0.05) in the distribution of the temperament types. The percentage of difficult-to-raise type was higher in girls than in boys. The percentage of easy-to-raise type was higher in boys than in girls. The total score and classified scores of social competence had significant difference among children with different temperament types (P<0.05). Conclusions There is significant diffe-rence of social competence in chil-dren with different temperament types. Corresponding educational measures according to the child's temperament may be bene-fit to the development in preschool children.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between the location and volume of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and lacunar infarction (LI) in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD).Methods:Participants from the CSVD cohort in the Department of Neurology, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University from February 2017 to March 2019 were enrolled retrospectively. All participants underwent magnetic resonance imaging scans, standardized clinical assessment and diagnosis. AccuBrain, an automatic brain segmentation and quantification software developed by the Chinese University of Hong Kong, was used to quantitatively analyze the volume of CMBs and white matter hyperintensities (WMHs). Ordered multi-class logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent influencing factors of LI, and then multiple linear regression analysis was used to investigate the correlation between the volume of deep or infratentorial CMBs (DI-CMBs) and the number of LI. Results:A total of 317 patients with CSVD were included in the analysis, including 214 (67.5%) in the non-LI group, 43 (13.6%) in the single LI group, and 60 (18.9%) in the multiple LI group. The comparison of the three groups showed that older age, male, smoking, drinking, history of previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), lower levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, larger CMBs and WMHs volume, higher enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) grade might be the risk factors for LI. Ordinal multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that male (odds ratio [ OR] 2.058, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.084-3.909; P=0.027), previous stroke or TIA history ( OR 1.962, 95% CI 1.089-3.535; P=0.025), larger WMH volume ( OR 8.716, 95% CI 4.034-18.832; P<0.001), higher EPVS grade ( OR 1.915, 95% CI 1.292-2.839; P=0.001), larger DI-CMB volume ( OR 1.022, 95% CI 1.006-1.038; P=0.008) or more DI-CMB number ( OR 1.187, 95% CI 1.005-1.403; P=0.044) were the independent related factors of LI. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that there was a significant correlation between the volume of DI-CMB and the number of LI ( r=0.330, P<0.001). Conclusion:In patients with CSVD, there is a significant correlation between DI-CMBs and LI.

Objective To explore the application effects of plan-do-check-action ( PDCA) circle in home care for cerebral stroke patients. Methods We divided the stroke patients of Neurology Department into experimental group and control group with 80 cases in each group randomly. Patients in experimental group were cared by PDCA circle home care, while those in control group received conventional outpatient care which included telephone follow-up and outpatient care. Patients in two groups were compared from daily life ability, compliance, pressure ulcers incidence, and rehospitalization rates in 6 and 12 months after discharged. Results 12 months after discharged, daily life ability score in experimental group was higher than that of control group[(46. 60 ± 10. 98) vs(42. 88 ± 9. 80)] (t = 2. 26,P < 0. 05). Patient′s compliance in experimental group was better than that of control group(P<0. 05). Pressure ulcers incidence in experimental group was obvious lower than that of control group (3. 75% vs 16. 25%) (χ2 =6. 94,P<0. 05). Rates of readmission in experimental group was lower than that of control group (5. 00% vs 16. 25%) (χ2 =5. 33,P<0. 05). Conclusions PDCA circle home care is considered to be an advanced service model with continuing care which can improve the patient′s quality of life, improve patient′s compliance, reduce the incidence of pressure ulcers and readmission rates, reduce the family financial burden and save medical resources.

Objective To understand the status of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) about stroke among the residents in a community of Wenzhou, and to clarify the characteristics of the intervention population and the key points for intervention, so as to carry out health education and health promotion, and improve the prevention and treatment of stroke. Methods An investigation was conducted in a total of 658 residents in a community of Wenzhou, aged from 18 to 90. The content of the investigating included the general information, the KAP about stroke, the identification of stroke warning information and the behavior of seeking medical advice. Results The highest and lowest rate of the knowledge about stroke prevention and treatment was 88.68% and 33.54%; the highest and lowest rate of the correct attitude was 79.75% and 32.67%; and the highest and lowest rate of the correct behavior was 56.17% and 10.89%. The differences of KAP in populations with different characteristics were statistically significant (P< 0.01). The top three stroke warning symptoms were one side of the face or limb numbness or weakness (59.57%), consciousness disturbance (59.42%) and comprehension disturbance (59.12%). The thop three emergency seeking hospital service behaviors of stroke were immediate delivery to hospital (19.60%), continued observation (18.54%) and calling ambulance (18.24%). Conclusions The status quo of community residents' KAP of stroke in Wenzhou is at a low level. It is suggested to carry out targeted health education to improve the residents' knowledge of stroke and promote the change of attitude and behavior, so as to prevent or delay the incidence of stroke.

ObjectiveTo explore the imbalance of paravertebral muscle group for patients with unilateral lumbar disc herniation. MethodsFrom January, 2022 to January, 2023, 30 patients with unilateral lumbar disc herniation (observation group) and 30 healthy people matching in general data (control group) were measured the tension and stiffness of multifidus and erector spinae with MyotonPRO, while the observation group was assessed with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain and Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score, and the time of disease was also recorded. ResultsThe mean of bilateral tension and hardness of multifidus and erector spinae was more in the observation group than in the control group (|t| > 5.407, P < 0.001), and the tension and hardness of multifidus and erector spinae of the affected side were more than those of the unaffected side in the observation group (|t| > 11.219, P < 0.001). The tension and hardness of multifidus and erector spinae of the affected side were positively correlated with VAS score (r > 0.942, P < 0.001), and negatively correlated with JOA score (|r| > 0.886, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe tension and hardness of multifidus and erector spinae of the affected side increase after unilateral lumbar disc herniation, resulting in asymmetry.
