弱智儿童与正常儿童智力结构的比较研究

以中国－韦氏儿童智力量表和修订幼儿Ｈ．Ｒ神经心理测验中的范畴测验作为儿童智力和思维能力的指标，对４７名８－１１岁弱智儿童和５０名普通小学儿童进行了测试，发现弱智儿童ＩＱ在４６－６９之间，属智力迟滞，与教育的筛选结果相同。且危险因素明显多于正常儿童。正常儿童ＩＱ在１１０－１３３之间，属高于平常智力，两组间有显著性差异。两组儿童智力结构图走势相似，提示智力测验对个体的指导意义更大。弱智儿童与正常儿童的范畴测验得分有极显著的差异，且与ＩＱ呈显著负相关，提示范畴测验鉴别力良好，可单独作为儿童思维能力的检测指标。     

57例小儿肺炎患者T淋巴细胞亚群及NK细胞观察

为了检测肺炎患儿的免疫功能,用 APAAP 法对57例反复患支气管肺炎的患儿进行 T 淋巴细胞亚群及 NK 细胞检测,结果 CD_3~+53.20±7.64%(对照组:62.50±9.65%),CD_4~+34.2±4.36%(对照组:38.64±4.05%),CD_8~+32.50±6.39%(对照组:26.70±4.23%)。CD_4~+/CD_8~+比值1.05±0.14(对照组:1.45±0.11),NK 细胞8.30±2.40%(对照组:6.44±3.37%)。结果证明,患儿 T 细胞亚群与对照组比较差异有显著(P<0.01),NK 细胞差异无显著性(P>0.05)。     

行为异常儿童社交能力分析

目的探讨儿童行为问题与社交能力之间的的关孔方法使用Achenbach’s儿童行为量表对1051名儿童进行筛查，检出98名行为异常者，计数统计其社交项目与总体儿童社交项目人数比较之，x2统计分析。结果在活动的技巧水平上，在家庭关系中，在校学习对知识的理解、掌握程度、心情舒畅程度等方面，异常儿不如总体（P＜0．05），但在活动的时间、对外社交及学习成绩方面二者无明显差异（P＞0.05）。结论儿童行为问题与社交能力的关系。并不是单一的正、负相关所能概括的，应该具体问题具体分析，审视其全面。     

400例独生子女病残儿鉴定分析与二胎儿随访

１９８１年１１月－１９９４年１２月，我院共鉴定独生子女病残儿４００例。除１０例未发现明显异常外，余下的疾病有百余种，大致分了七类，神经系统疾病２００例（５０％），其中智力低下（ＭＲ）１７４例，又占神经系统疾病中的８７％，说明ＭＲ已是当前引致小儿残疾的主要疾患。先天性遗传性疾病２１５例，占了总数的５３．７５％，说明加强优生与孕期保健工作的重要性。作者对可生育二胎者随机随访了５４例，３６例（６６．７％）已生育了二胎，大部小儿生长健康，仅２例异常，１例６个月死于心肌炎，另一例为出生低体重（２２５０ｇ），似乎与第一胎之残疾关系不大。说明病残儿医学鉴定小组的监护对第二胎的出生质量是至关重要的。     

Dimensional alterations of the gingiva related to changes of facial/lingual tooth position in permanent anterior teeth of children

Abstract Maxillary and mandibular anterior permanent teeth in 38 children aged 7–12 years were examined 2 × with an interval of 2 years to determine whether spontaneous facial/lingual tooth position changes were related to alterations of the widths of keratinized and attached gingiva and the clinical crown height. Measurements included dental plaque, gingival inflammation, probing depth, and width of keratinized and attached gingiva. In addition, study casts from the baseline and 2-year examinations were used to measure clinical crown height and tooth position. The results showed that significant alterations in the widths of the keratinized and attached gingiva took place when the teeth changed positions in facial or lingual directions. The changes in gingival widths could to some extent be coupled to changes in clinical crown height. In teeth moving lingually, the gingival widths increased and the clinical crown height decreased. In teeth moving facially, the gingival widths decreased, and the facial gingiva sometimes receded. These gingival alterations call for examination of the facial gingiva as part of the monitoring of the development of the permanent dentition.     

Kindergarten and first grade: A time for developing and nurturing gifted behaviors in young children

This article concludes that there is a tremendous need for gifted programs at the kindergarten and first grade levels. A review of the literature suggests that it is difficult to identify young gifted children through traditional screening techniques. The author concludes that Renzulli's Enrichment Triad Model may prove useful for identifying young gifted children.     

Preventing accidental injury to young children in the home using volunteers

Accidental injury in the home is a major cause of death andill-health among young children. Reducing home safety hazardsby the use of safety devices such as stair barriers and safetytaps has the potential to prevent home injuries. Little is knownabout levels of home safety hazards or how to encourage parentsto reduce hazards. The Safe Place Project examined parents'knowledge of home safety and the prevalence of safety hazardsin homes where there were young children. The study also evaluatedthe effectiveness of a low-cost strategy aimed at reducing homesafety hazards. The strategy used trained volunteers to providehome safety checks and tailored safety education in conjunctionwith increasing the availability of home safety devices. Onehundred and six families with young children participated inthe project. Some homes contained many hazards, with 43% ofthe sample having more than 10 home safety hazards. At follow-up,the intervention group showed a significant reduction in homehazards and a trend towards an increase in knowledge of homesafety.     

Arthroscopy of the knee in children and adolescents

A retrospective review was done of 69 children and adolescents (7-17 years old) who underwent 75 arthroscopies of the knee during a 5-year period. Girls were overrepresented (71%). Thirty-eight were children under the age of 16. Of 46 injuries, 34 (74%) happened during sports. Children and adolescents were divided into two age groups based on their presumed state of skeletal maturity (boys 9–15 and girls 7–14 in group I and boys 16–17 and girls 15–17 in group II); meniscal lesions were equally common in the two groups, whereas anterior cruciate ligament tears were more common in older children (NS). Eleven of 17 (65%) anterior cruciate ligament lesions were combined with other intra-articular pathology, most often meniscal tears (9/11). As in other studies, half of the prearthroscopic diagnoses were incorrect. A high frequency of incorrect prearthroscopic diagnoses and of combined lesions justifies arthroscopy as an important diagnostic tool in children and adolescents with a history of twisting knee injury or chronic nonspecific knee problems. Girls practising ball games seem to be especially prone to knee injuries leading to arthroscopy.     

Renal vascular resistance in normal children – a color Doppler study

To investigate the relationship between age and renal vascular resistance and to establish nomative data of the systolic/diastolic ratio (S/D ratio), pulsatility index (PI), and resistant index (RI) of the renal artery in the normal pediatric population, we studied 252 normal children aged newborn to 13 years (a total of 449 kidneys) with a color Doppler unit. After the normality of the kidney was established, color flow mapping was performed to localize the segmental portion of the renal artery. Flow velocity waveforms were then obtained by pulsed Doppler, and S/D ratio, PI, and RI were calculated. Multiple regression analysis confirmed the age dependence of the S/D ratio, PI, and RI of the renal artery in normal children. Renal vascular resistance continuously declines after birth and stabilizes at the age of 102 – 130 months. Normative data for S/D ratio, PI, and RI of the renal artery in normal children were established for each age group. Since renal vascular resistance decreases with age and stabilizes at 8 – 10 years, we suggest using different normal ranges for each age group when studying renal vascular resistance in pediatric patients.
