Effect of Group-Task-Oriented Training on Gross and Fine Motor Function, and Activities of Daily Living in Children with Spastic Cerebral Palsy.

To determine the effects of group-task-oriented training (group-TOT) on gross and fine motor function, activities of daily living (ADL) and social function of children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). Eighteen children with spastic CP (4-7.5 years, gross motor function classification system level I-III) were randomly assigned to the Group-TOT (9 children received group-TOT for 1 hour, twice a week for 8 weeks) or the comparison group (9 children received individualized traditional physical and occupational therapy).

Effect of the ZnS Shell Layer on the Electrical Properties of Organic Bistable Devices Fabricated Utilizing CdSe/CdS/ZnS Core-Shell-Shell Quantum Dots Embedded in a Poly(methylmethacrylate) Layer.

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy spectra showed that the synthesized elements of the CdSe/CdS/ ZnS QDs were Cd, Se, Zn, and S. Organic bistable devices (OBDs) containing CdSe/CdS/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) and a poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) layer were fabricated on indium-tin-oxide (ITO)-deposited glass substrates. Current-voltage (I-V) curves showed that the memory margin of the Al/(CdSe/CdS/ZnS QDs) embedded in PMMA layer/ITO device at 300 K was larger than that of the device without a ZnS shell layer.

Effect of Nanoscale Ag Film Thickness on the Electrical and Optical Properties of Transparent IZTO/Ag/IZTO Multilayer Films Deposited on Glass Substrates.

The effect of nanoscale Ag film thickness on the electrical and optical properties in transparent conducting oxide films consisting of an IZTO/Ag/IZTO multilayer were investigated. The homoge- neous morphologies of the Ag films sandwiched between the IZTO films affected the optical and electrical properties of the IZTO/Ag/IZTO multilayer films. The transmittance and resistivity of the IZTO/Ag/IZTO multilayer films decreased with increasing Ag film thickness.
