A Meta-Analysis of the Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Relations Between Executive Functioning and Math in Early Childhood by Jane E. Hutchison, Bijan Tabrizian, Nina Bajnauth, Ander Avdellas, Deborah Phillips, Ian M. Lyons

“…We then examined whether the strength of the EF-Math relation in this age-range depends on measurement factors, socio-economic status (SES), and the nature and direction of longitudinal relations. [1] Overall achievement measures of EF and math generally led to higher estimates of the EF-Math relation relative to measures of isolated EF subprocesses or specific math skills, though this may be due more to measurement than developmental factors. [2] EF measures using numerical stimuli inflate estimates of the EF-Math association by roughly 40%. [3] Low SES samples showed the strongest average EF-Math associations. [4] Longitudinal associations that do not adjust for Time-1 measurement of the outcome variable lead to inflated (as much as 120%) estimates of directional associations. …”

Clinical Effect of Extracorporeal Shock Wave on Hand Function Recovery after Conservative Therapy of Colles Fracture by Chao ZHANG, Bin HE

“…The control group was trained with general hand function recovery rehabilitation approach, the ESWT group was treated with extracorporeal shock wave therapy on the basis of the control group.Results:After treatment, the AROM and TAM scores of wrists of the two groups were significantly improved than those before treatment, with statistically significant differences (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05), ESWT group improved more significantly than the control group (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05);the VAS scores and DASH scores of both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment, with statistically significant differences (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05), the scores of ESWT group reduced more significantly than the control group (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).Conclusion:Combined with hand function rehabilitation, extracorporeal shock wave can improve joint mobility, hand function and activities of daily living more effectively after conservative treatment of Colles fractures, and can effectively reduce patients' edema and pain.…”
