Effect of swimming and caressing on neonatal jaundice and weight / 现代临床护理

Objective To explore the effect of swimming and caressing on neonatal jaundice and weight.Methods Two hundred and forty newborns were divided equally into control and observation group with random digits table.The former received care with caressing and the latter with swimming and caressing.The two groups were compared in terms of weights and jaundice indices at birth and 7d after birth.Results Seven days after birth,the jaundice index in the observation group were lower than that of the control group and the weights of the observation group were larger(P<0.05).Conclusion Swimming and caressing are helpful for the development of neonates by C-sect and the reduction of jaundice duration.

Phenolic compounds from Galium aparine var. tenerum / 中国中药杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the compounds from the whole plant of Galium aparine var. tenerum.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>The various column chromatographic techniques were applied to isolate the chemical constituents. MS, NMR and 2D-NMR spectroscopic techniques were uesd to identify chemical structures.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Six compounds were isolated from the EtOAc-soluble part of the 95% ethanol extract of the plant, and their chemical structures were identified as 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-ethanone (1), vanillic acid (2), 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3), p-hydroxycinnamic acid (4), gallic acid (5), 4-hydroxytruxillic acid (6).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The NMR data of compound 6 were completely assigned by 2D-NMR techniques, including 1H-1H COSY, HMQC and HMBC spectra. This was the first time to report isolation of the compound 6 from natural product. The compounds 1-5 was isolated from the genus Galium for the first time.</p>

Analysis of infant-mother attachment and the related influencing factors / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND: Attachment reflects the early social experience of infant, which plays an important role in later child development. Although most of the attachment develops between infant and mother, some may occur between infant and care giver or others who have close relationship with it.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the infant-mother attachment patterns and the factors related to infant attachment.DESIGN: It was a sampling investigation.SETTING: Department of Maternal and Child Health, School of Public Health, Sun Yat-sen University.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 75 infants and their mother were selected randomly for this study in the Department of Child Health in Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital from August to October 2002.METHODS: Strange situation test (SST) was performed by 6 researchers who were trained systematically. They watched the videos collectively and classified the patterns of infant attschment based on their performance. The internal consistency coefficient was 0.90. For those inconsistent assessments, the video should be reviewed and discussed to get an accordant conclusion. In addition, a self-designed maternal questionnaire was used to investigate the general condition of the infant and the familial information.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Distribution of infant attachment patterns. ②Analysis of the risk factors related to infant attachment.RESULTS: All the 75 infants and their mother entered the statistical analysis. ①Distribution of the infant attachment patterns: In 75 infants, secure attachment was 65% and insecure attachment was 35%, among which,insecure-indifferent type was 18%, insecure-importunate type was 13%,and insecure-disorganized type was 4%. ②Analysis of the risk factors related to infant attachment Those infants with a younger age, a poor approachability (the response to strangers, new environment and objects), a closer relationship with caregiver and a more inconsistent education from the family members, are prone to develop insecure attachment.CONCLUSION: Secure attachment is dominant in infants. The security of attachment is related to the maturity and personality traits of the infants,the relationship between infant and caregiver and the educational approach for them.

Visuospatial Cognitive Characteristics and Behavior Problem in Children with Nonverbal Learning Disabilities / 中国心理卫生杂志

Objective:This investigation examined the relationship between visuospatial cognitive char-acteristics and behavior problems in Chinese children with nonverbal learning disabilities.Methods:Partici-pants (N=120, among 6~12 year-old) included children with NLD (N=40) and children with VLD (N=40), as well as comparison normal children (N=40) with no psychiatric history. Participants were assessed with the following measures: the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (C-WISC), Draw-a-person test and CB-CL. The visuospatial cognitive ability and behavior problems were analyzed.Results:The child with NLD showed abnormality in the aspects of spatial ability, visual-movement coordination and speed, sketch percep-tion, vision memory, nonverbal reasoning and vision combination, compared with the other groups (p
