Aims: The study aimed to describe the implementation of a collaborative ride-on car (ROC) intervention by applying a practice model of family-professional collaboration. The model involves specific strategies for collaboration, "visualizing a preferred future" and "scaling questions."
Methods: The participants were two young children with mobility limitations and their mothers. The 12-week of ROC intervention involved training sessions with a therapist and home sessions. The outcomes included the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure (COPM) and Goal Attainment Scaling (GAS).
Results: The collaborative strategies facilitated parent engagement in goal setting, planning, and evaluation. After the intervention, the mothers' ratings of their children's performance and parent satisfaction on the COPM increased by 6 and 3 points, respectively, and the level of goal attainment exceeded expectations (+1 on GAS) in both families. Prior to the ROC intervention, both families were hesitant to use powered mobility. However, the experience of participating in the ROC intervention process broadened parents' perspectives on self-directed mobility and led them to explore options for their children to move independently.
Conclusions: The collaborative ROC intervention can be used as an intervention for early mobility and a bridging step for families reluctant to use a powered wheelchair.

Background: poses a considerable global public health challenge. In Egypt, approximately 60% of the inhabitants in the Northern and Eastern areas of the Nile Delta are affected by this parasite, whereas the Southern region experiences a significantly lower infection rate of 6%.
Aim: Construction of an immune phage display Nbs library based on the VHH framework for selecting -specific Nbs for seeking cost-effective, sensitive, and specific diagnostic tools for rapidly detecting mansoni.

Introduction: Increased intracranial pressure (ICP) is common with viral encephalitis in children which is associated with complications and prognosis. The optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is a new indicator for the assessment of intracranial pressure using ultrasound, CT scan and MRI imaging. Given the influence of physical development on ONSD size in children, we expect more accurate assessment of intracranial pressure with ONSD/ETD (eyeball transverse diameter) ratio by ultrasound.

Department of Neonatology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Zheng Zhou University, Zhengzhou, China.
Objective: To explore the risk factors for the reactivate of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) after intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and to construct a nomogram model to predict the risk of ROP reactivate.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 185 ROP children who underwent anti-VEGF treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to October 2023. They were randomly divided into a training set (129 cases) and a validation set (56 cases) at a ratio of 7:3.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the risk factors of hypokalemia after radical resection of esophageal cancer (EC) and establish a nomogram risk prediction model to evaluate hypokalemia risk after esophagectomy. Thus, this study provides a reference for the clinical development of intervention measures.
Methods: Clinical data of EC patients who underwent radical surgery from January 2020 to November 2022 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University were retrospectively collected.

Significance: Radiofrequency ablation to treat atrial fibrillation (AF) involves isolating the pulmonary vein from the left atria to prevent AF from occurring. However, creating ablation lesions within the pulmonary veins can cause adverse complications.
Aim: We propose automated classification algorithms to classify optical coherence tomography (OCT) volumes of human venoatrial junctions.
