Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical characteristics of different treatment in children with esophageal foreign bodies.Methods:This study collected 246 children with esophageal foreign bodies in our hospital from January 2016 to January 2020, which was divided into endoscopic group and operative group.The general and clinical data of children treated with different treatment were collected and statistical analyzed.Results:There were 222 children in endoscopic group and 24 children in operative group, respectively.The rate of surgery was 9.75%.There were no significant differences in gender and location of esophageal foreign bodies.However, the average age of operative group was(2.92±2.67) years, which significantly younger than that in endoscopic group(4.12±3.37)years( P=0.049). The residence time in operative group(median 29.10 h)was remarkable longer than that in operative group(median 11.80 h)( P<0.001). The proportion of sharpness(50.00%) and corrosive(45.83%) foreign bodies in operative group were more than those in endoscopic group[16.22% and 8.11%( P<0.001)]. Moreover, the occurrence rate of major complication in operative group was 83.33%, which was dramatically higher than that in endoscopic group(0.90%)( P<0.001). Conclusion:The younger and longer residence time of esophageal foreign bodies in children contribute to the rate of operative treatment.Additionally, the sharpness and corrosive foreign bodies increase the risk of surgery and serious complications.

Objective To observe the effect of combining virtual reality technology with occupational thera-py in treating children with spastic hemiplegia resulting from cerebral palsy. Methods Thirty-eight spastic and hemiplegic children with cerebral palsy were randomly divided into a treatment group ( n=18) and a control group ( n=20) . Both groups received occupational therapy, while the treatment group was additionally provided with virtual reality-based treatment. The sessions lasted 30 min, 6 times a week for 3 months. Before and after the treatment the upper extremity motor function of both groups was assessed using the fine motor quotients of the Peabody developmen-tal motor scale, the Caroll hand function scale and a activities of daily life scale. Results Before the treatment there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of any of the measurements. After the 3 months, significant improvement was observed in both groups, but the improvement of the treatment group was significantly greater than that of the control group. Conclusion Virtual reality technology can further improve the motor function of the upper ex-tremities and ability in the activities of daily life beyond that achievable through occupational therapy alone.

Objective To explore the relevance between gait speed and muscle strength of lower extremities, or several kinds of physical functional tests. Methods 341 community-dwelling individuals (160 males, 181 females) aged 65-94 years were selected. They were divided into suspected sarcopenia group (n=137) and normal group (n=204) by their gait speed less or more than 0.8 m/s. It was compared between both groups with the basic physical characteristics, strength of iliopsoas, quadriceps, hamstrings and tibialis anterior, and the scores of One Leg Standing Test, Berg Balance Scale, Functional Gait Assessment, Functional Stretch Test and Timed Up and Go Test. Results The subjects were older in the suspected sarcopenia group than in the normal group. The difference of body weight, height were not statistically significant between groups. The strength of the muscles in bilateral lower limbs was not significantly different between both groups (P>0.05), while the gait speed positively correlated with the strength of iliopsoas, quadriceps and hamstrings (r=0.121-0.227, P<0.05), but not with the tibialis anterior (P>0.05). Gait speed positively correlated with the scores of One Leg Standing Test, Berg Balance Scale, Functional Gait Assessment, Functional Stretch Test (P<0.05), and negatively correlated with the score of Timed Up and Go Test (r=-0.502, P<0.001). The scores of all the tests were significantly different between 2 groups (P<0.05), except that of Functional Stretch Test (P=0.28). Conclusion Sarcopenia diagnosis is not only depended on the strength of muscle of lower extremity, but also their functions.
