A preventive intervention for enhancing resilience among highly stressed urban children

Describes the development and evaluation of a pilot 12-session, school-based preventive intervention designed to enhance resilience among inner-city children who have experienced major life stress. Thirty-six 4th–6th grade children participated in the intervention in groups of 5–8 co-led by school personnel. The curriculum focussed on understanding feelings in oneself and others, perspective-taking, social problem-solving, dealing with solvable and unsolvable problems, and building self-efficacy and esteem. Pre-post evaluation showed significant improvement among participants on teacher-rated indices of learning problems and task orientation and on child ratings of perceived self-efficacy, realistic control attributions and anxiety. Program limitations and factors that restrict generalization are considered and new directions for program development and research are proposed.

The Effects of Incentives and Research Requirements on Participation Rates for a Community-Based Preventive Intervention Research Study

This investigation utilized prospective survey data to examine the influence of a research incentive ($100) and requirement (videotaping) on decisions to participate in prevention research. Individuals were significantly attracted by the incentive, and marginally deterred by the requirement. Interaction analyses revealed that the positive incentive effect was stronger among prospective participants with less education and who were otherwise less likely to participate. These findings indicate that monetary incentives can be useful for increasing participation rates, and may help reduce sampling bias by increasing rates most strongly among individuals who are typically less likely to take part in research projects.     

A torus palatinus with a family history

Summary Throughout history, different etiologies have been suggested for torus palatinus. In more recent years, however, torus palatinus has been attributed to heredity; a case which confirms this is presented. The relevant literature is reviewed.

婴幼儿良性颅内压增高症78例诊治分析

目的 :探讨婴幼儿良性颅内压增高症的促发因素及治疗。方法 :对 78例婴幼儿良性颅内压增高症患儿的临床资料进行分析。结果 :在促发因素中 ,发热性疾病或呼吸道感染占 41 .0 % ,药物因素占 34.6% ,中耳炎占 5 .1 %。反映感染性疾病和药物是诱发婴幼儿良性颅内压增高的重要因素 ,中耳炎所占比例下降 ;全部病例经积极治疗基础疾病 ,用甘露醇及地塞米松降颅压均全部痊愈。结论 :婴幼儿良性颅内压增高症呈良性预后 ,临床医生在小儿用药上要重视药物的剂量及不良反应。     

双介入并中药治疗胰腺癌35例

对３５例胰癌病人在超声引导下，局部注射纯乙醇顺铂溶液，由肿瘤远端边退针边注射，一般７－１０天注射１次，直至活栓组织中癌细胞转阴为止。并给予“胰宝康泰”辅治疗，该药具有免疫增强作用。本组３５例的半年、１年、２年活率分别为８５．７％、６８．８％、５１．４％，中位生丰了期为１０．３个月，疗效满意。

目的　实施社区高血压分级管理 ,探讨社区干预措施对心脑血管病预防控制的效果。方法　随机抽取潍坊社区部分居委为干预组 ,对其中 2 2 31名高血压患者从 1998～ 2 0 0 0年进行分级管理 ,又随机抽取部分居委为对照组 ,比较两组脑卒中发病率、死亡率。结果　高血压患者的管理率达 89 5 3% ,控制率达 78 73% ;干预组脑卒中发病率为 198 73/ 10万 ,死亡率 77 2 8/ 10万 ;对照组脑卒中发病率为 2 2 2 2 3/ 10万 ,死亡率 80 81/ 10万。两组标化后脑卒中发病率、死亡率间差别均有显著性意义 (P <0 0 5 )。结论　干预组脑卒中的标准化发病率及死亡率均低于对照组 ,说明高血压分级管理的社区干预措施对心脑血管病的预防控制是有效的     

MR monitoring of MR-guided radiofrequency thermal ablation of normal liver in an animal model

The purpose of this study was to determine the suitability of MRI to accurately detect radiofrequency (RF) thermoablative lesions created under MR guidance. In vivo RF lesions were created in the livers of six New Zealand White rabbits using a 2-mm-diameter titanium alloy RF electrode with a 20-mm exposed tip and a 50-W RF generator. This was performed using a 0.2T clinical C-arm MR imager for guidance and monitoring. Each animal was sacrificed and gross evaluation was performed. Histologic correlation was performed on the first two animals. The MR-compatible RF electrode was easily identified on rapid gradient-echo images used to guide electrode placement. A single lesion was created in each rabbit liver. Lesions ranged from approximately 10 to 17 mm in diameter (mean, 13.5 mm). T2-weighted and short T1 inversion recovery (STIR) images demonstrated lesions ranging in diameter from 12 to 18 mm (mean, 14.6 mm). Lesion dimensions determined from images closely correlated with those determined at gross examination with the discrepancy never exceeding 2 mm, for an r² value of .87. MRI performed at the time of MR-guided RF ablation accurately demonstrated created lesions. This modality may provide a new option for the treatment of local and regional neoplastic disease.
