@#Objective To compare the differences of electrical activity in calf muscle of children with growing pains from normal children when standing and heel raising. Methods 32 children with growing pains and foot pronation were as growing pains group, and 32 normal children as control group. All the children were measure with surface electromyography (sEMG) of tibialis anterior, peroneus longus, medial gastrocnemius and tibialis posterior when standing and heel raising. Results The root mean square (RMS) of peroneus longus increased significantly in growing pains group when standing (P<0.01). The RMS decreased significantly in medial gastrocnemius (P<0.05) and increased significantly in tibialis posterior (P<0.01) when heel raising. Conclusion The characteristics of electrical activity in calf muscle is difference from the normal in the growing pains children with foot pronation during standing and heel raising.

Objective To study the effects of core control training on gross motor function of children with spastic cerebral palsy. Meth-ods 60 children with spastic cerebral palsy were divided into control group (n=30) and treatment group (n=30). The control group accepted routine comprehensive rehabilitation therapy including physical therapy, acupuncture, electrotherapy, etc., while the treatment group accept-ed the core control training in addition. They were assessed with the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-88) and the Trunk Control Test (TCT) before and 3 months after rehabilitation. Results Both groups improved in the scores of GMFM-88 and TCT after treatment (P<0.001), and improved more in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.001). Conclusion The core control training can strengthen the trunk control and further improve the gross motor function in children with spastic cerebral palsy.

@#Objective To discuss the differences of the types of cerebral palsy and the comorbidity between premature and full-term infants. Methods 233 children with cerebral palsy were divided into premature group (n=98) and full-term group (n=125). The types of cerebral palsy and the complications were analyzed. Results The high risk factors were low birth weight, jaundice, asphyxia, intracranial hemorrhage and cord around neck in sequence in the premature group, and were asphyxia, jaundice, fetal distress, intracranial hemorrhage and intrauterine infection in sequence in the full-term group. Besides auditory handicap. The frequency of spastic diplegia was higher in the premature group than in the full-term group (P<0.001), and the incidence of spastic hemiplegia was higher in the full-term group than in the premature group (P<0.01). There was no significant difference in dysgnosia, epilepsy and visual disturbance (P>0.05), but auditory handicap (P<0.05) between 2 groups. Conclusion The main clinical types of premature and full-term children with cerebral palsy were spastic diplegia and spastic hemiplegia respectively.

Objective To examine the concurrent validity of Peabody'S developmental motor scale number 2(PDMS-2)and Gesell's developmental scales with 1 2 to 30 month-old children with cerebral palsy (CP)and to assess the value of PDMS-2 in measuring motor function in children with CP.Methods Eighty-four children with CP aged 12 to 30 months were assessed with both PDMS-2 and Gesell's developmental scales.The correlation between PDMS-2 gross motor quotients and Gesell gross motor developmental quotients,and be-tween PDMS-2 fine motor quotients and Gesell fine motor developmental quotients were compared using Spearman rank correlation coefficients. Results The correlation coefficient between PDMS-2 gross motor quo-tient and the Gesell gross motor developmental quotient was 0.89.Between PDMS-2 fine motor quotient and Gesell's fine motor developmental quotient it was 0.87.The concurrent validities were 0.28 and 0.42 respec-tively. Conclusion PDMS-2 gross motor quotient and Gesell's gross motor developmental quotient are highly correlated,as are PDM S-2 fine motor quotient and Gesell's fine motor developmental quotient.The concurrent validities were between classifications using the PDMS-2 gross motor quotient and Gesell's gross motor develop- mental quotient were weakly correlated,but there was moderate correlation between PDM S-2 fine motor quotientsand Gesell fine gross developmental quotients.There may be limitations in assessing motor function children aged12 to 30 months with cerebral palsy using PDMS-2.
