METHODS:We conducted a case-control study enrolling 31 children with PVT and 26 age-matched controls. All were screened for thrombophilia,including genetic disorders,protein C,protein S and homocysteine deficiencies. All coagulation parameters were studied at least 3 mo after the diagnosis of portal vein obstruction.RESULTS:In our study we showed that most pediatric patients with PVT have local prothrombotic risk factors,which are probably the most important factors leading to PVT. However,there is a clear association between the presence of prothrombotic disorders and PVT,suggesting that these increase the risk of thrombosis in patients with local factors such as perinatal umbilical vein catheterization or sepsis. CONCLUSION:Patients with PVT should be screened for inherited prothrombotic disorders regardless of a history of an obvious local risk factor.展开更多

It is theoretically feasible to rebuild the link between children with nature-deficit disorder and nature via artificially-made natural environment. This paper explored the relationship between children's health and nature from the perspective of landscape architecture theories and practices. First, impact of nature-deficit disorder on children's health; second, basic appeals of children with nature-deficit disorder were sorted out; finally, specialized gardens for children with nature-deficit disorder under the instruction of the above theories were designed.展开更多

During the course of their sophomore year, 17 students participated and each student held two to seven individual reading sessions, to which they brought a self-selected children＇s picture storybook or children＇s novel they had finished reading on their own and orally read it to the researcher. Their oral reading and the discussion of each book with the researcher were audio recorded. To gain insight into the reading progress, these oral data were categorized and analyzed in terms of mispronunciation patterns, misunderstanding of vocabulary, misinterpretation of sentence or passage, and researcher＇s guidance. General findings of the 17 participants were presented in three categories： （1） vocabulary acquisition, （2） common comprehension problems, and （3） common pronunciation problems. Further analysis of two motivated students who read five to seven books revealed that （1） these two EFL learners gradually developed conscious awareness of their own pronunciation and comprehension errors and （2） they progressively acquired better competence to apply the pronunciation tips and reading comprehension techniques provided by the researcher during previous sessions. These findings and corresponding implications are discussed and further research suggestions are made.展开更多

Children＇s English becomes more important and spreads all over the world, especially in recent years. Children＇s English is not perfect and there exist its own disadvantages. This paper gives four optimizations and suggestions in teaching children＇s English in order to solve the problem. Then it lists several relations to the children＇s English study, and these four relations are very important because they are the keys to lead the children＇s English to a healthy and developing road. And in the next chapter, it talks about the trends of the children＇s English in the future and lists the reasons why these kinds of trends appear. At last, the author overlooks the whole paper and gives a conclusion, which shows that children＇s English has a great potentiality in the future in China.展开更多

They are useful tools in children's language learning. As English teachers, we should know how to make full use of them to stimulate children's interest and promote their learning. In this essay, I will take one primary English lesson as an example to demonstrate my point. First I am going to talk about the advantages of using a game and a song, and then analyze the teaching or learning context and the activities in the lesson. At last I am going to focus on how and why to use the game and the song in the classroom. In a word, I am going to justify my choice and use of a game and a song in a revision lesson.展开更多
