Experiences and perceived roles of occupational therapists working with children with special learning needs during transition to school: A pilot study

Occupational therapists provide support to children with special learning needs and their families during the child's transition from early childhood to mainstream school. Little has been documented regarding the role and experiences of occupational therapists working with children, families and teachers during transition in an Australian context. Six paediatric occupational therapists from one geographical area in New South Wales were interviewed and asked to relay their role and experiences when providing a service to children with special learning needs during their transition to school. Participants described their role to include: preparing the child for school; working with school personnel; and providing parental support. Although participants described both positive and negative experiences, among the negative experiences were: limited time to provide a service; recommendations to school personnel not being followed; school personnel not being supportive; feeling uncomfortable in the classroom; and limited involvement in planning. Participants described a role which is consistent with current school-based occupational therapy practice; however, in the participants' experience, there was a gap between the ideal service and what participants were able to provide. This included limited collaboration with teachers.     

从ECCE到Phaco的转变--核处理技术的实验研究

目的通过化学方法制成动物核性白内障模型,探讨相对能量复合指数(RECP)与角膜内皮细胞活性的关系。方法将5种化学物质注入晶状体,以透过黑白条纹的清晰程度判断晶状体混浊程度并分级。然后将实验眼球分为6组(Ⅰ组为对照组;Ⅱ-Ⅵ为实验组),行标准超声乳化白内障摘除手术。手术后立即取下角膜,作锥蓝-茜素红联合染色标本和扫描电镜标本。结果晶状体内注入甲醛、冰醋酸、无水乙醇、丙酮和苯扎溴铵均能形成晶状体混浊,其中:冰醋酸致晶状体混浊能力最弱,无水乙醇、丙酮次之,甲醛、苯扎溴铵最强。当RECP≤90时,锥蓝-茜素红双重染色和扫描电镜均表明角膜内皮细胞活性好,其形态和细胞联接均无改变。当RECP=120时,角膜内皮细胞形态尚正常,但是细胞联结和胞膜部分破坏。当RECP=150时,角膜内皮细胞严重损伤。结论用化学方法制作核性白内障模型供过渡训练使用是可行的。当RECP超过某一数值(>90)时,即与角膜内皮细胞的活性成负相关。

自酸蚀封闭剂与玻璃离子联合用于托槽粘结的临床观察

目的：评价自酸蚀粘结剂与树脂加强型玻璃离子联合用于正畸托槽粘结的临床使用效果。方法：随机选择50名患者，采用自身对照的方法进行为期12个月的临床观察。385个托槽用自酸蚀封闭剂（3MESEP）和光固化树脂加强型玻璃离子水门汀（FUJI ORTHO LC）粘结，390个托槽用京津釉质粘结剂粘结。观察托槽脱落的时间和脱落后粘结剂在牙面上的残留量，计算托槽脱落率和粘结材料残留指教。结果：光固化树脂加强型玻璃离子水门汀和自酸蚀封闭剂粘结的托槽脱落率为10．1％；京津釉质粘结剂粘结的托槽脱落率为9．0％，两者差异没有统计学意义（P〉0．05）。两种材料粘结的托槽脱落后，牙釉质上的粘结材料残留指教差异无显著统计学意义（P〉0．05）。结论：自酸蚀封闭剂和树脂加强型玻璃离子所构成的粘结技术粘结正畸托槽的粘结强度，可以满足正畸治疗的需要，在临床上有广阔的应用前景。

血管内皮细胞条件培养基促进胃癌细胞增殖和迁移

探讨血管内皮细胞培养基对胃癌细胞增殖和迁移的影响,分析血管内皮细胞调控胃癌细胞发生转移的机制。方法 设置对照组和共培养组,分别将正常培养基和人脐静脉血管内皮细胞HUVEC条件培养基作用于胃癌细胞HGC27,采用MTT法和划痕试验检测胃癌细胞HGC27的增殖活性和迁移能力。设置Control组、6 h组、12 h组和24 h组,以HUVEC的条件培养基作用于胃癌细胞6、12和24 h,Western blot检测EMT标志物和紧密连接蛋白的表达变化,激光共聚焦显微镜观察细胞骨架和紧密连接蛋白的分布变化。结果 MTT及划痕试验表明HUVEC条件培养基促进胃癌细胞HGC27的增殖和迁移。与Control组比较,间接共培养后胃癌细胞的形态呈间充质状改变,丝状伪足样凸起数量显著增加。 Western blot结果显示间接共培养后胃癌细胞上皮标志物E-cadherin表达水平逐渐下降,而间充质标志物N-cadherin和MMP-9逐渐增加,具有时序性变化规律。ZO-1和Occludin的表达也逐渐下降,细胞膜分布减少。结论 间接共培养下,血管内皮细胞通过上调胃癌细胞MMP-9,破坏紧密连接,促进胃癌细胞增殖和迁移

口腔修复陶瓷材料的磨损性能北大核心

背景:陶瓷材料因具有优良的机械性能、与口腔组织良好的生物相容性及高度美观性广泛应用于口腔修复领域,良好的磨损性能对修复体临床应用有重要意义。目的:综述口腔修复陶瓷材料磨损性能机制及临床研究,以期为临床选择适宜的陶瓷材料提供思路。方法:应用计算机在PubMed和Web of Science数据库检索在2016年1月至2021年4月期间涉及口腔修复陶瓷材料磨损性能的相关研究。英文检索词为“dental ceramic material,wear property”,最终共纳入36篇文献进行分析。结果与结论:①全瓷材料自身耐磨性均高于树脂陶瓷复合材料,全瓷材料中氧化锆陶瓷磨损性能最佳,美学性能较弱。②玻璃陶瓷中氧化锆加强型硅酸锂玻璃陶瓷磨损性能较好,但应用时间较短,长期疗效还有待更多的研究证实。③树脂陶瓷复合材料中树脂纳米陶瓷材料磨损性能优于聚合物渗透陶瓷。④在后牙区全冠修复可选择氧化锆陶瓷,前牙区全冠修复可以根据患者的美学需求选择高透性氧化锆陶瓷或玻璃陶瓷。⑤贴面、嵌体和高嵌体修复可选择长石瓷、玻璃陶瓷和树脂陶瓷复合材料,但树脂陶瓷复合材料耐磨性差,需避免用于高应力承载区。⑥对牙本质暴露、氟斑牙和牙齿酸蚀症患者可考虑树脂纳米陶瓷材料,但这类患者适宜的陶瓷材料相关研究较少。⑦表面粗糙度对陶瓷材料的磨损性能有显著影响,临床口腔修复应用中采用良好的抛光表面可提高陶瓷材料磨损性能,而且对修复体进行定期复查也至关重要。

Structural Reasons for Restricted Backbone Motion in Poly(n‐alkyl methacrylates): Degree of Polymerization,Tacticity and Side‐Chain Length

Summary: The complex dynamics of poly(n‐alkyl methacrylates) is studied by advanced ¹³C NMR spectroscopy as well as mechanical and dielectric relaxation. Extended backbone conformations are identified as the molecular units involved in structural relaxation. From the variation in the degree of polymerization and a comparison with the presence of stereoregular sequences in the sample, the length of the extended units is determined to involve about five, at most ten monomeric units. Syndiotactic and isotactic sequences behave similarly. These findings are indicative of locally structured polymer melts.
