Educators' Perceptions of Barriers and Facilitators to the Implementation of Screeners for Developmental Language Disorder and Dyslexia.

Developmental language disorder (DLD) and dyslexia are common but under-identified conditions that affect children's ability to read and comprehend text. Universal screening is a promising solution for improving under-identification of DLD and dyslexia, however, we lack evidence for how to effectively implement and sustain screening procedures in schools. In the current study, we solicited input from educators in the U.

Depletion of essential fatty acids in muscle is associated with shorter survival of cancer patients undergoing surgery-preliminary report.

Emerging studies are reporting associations between skeletal muscle abnormalities and survival in cancer patients. Cancer prognosis is associated with depletion of essential fatty acids in erythrocytes and plasma in humans. However the relationship between skeletal muscle membrane fatty acid composition and survival is unknown.

Lipid is heterogeneously distributed in muscle and associates with low radiodensity in cancer patients.

Background: Low muscle radiodensity is associated with mortality in a variety of cancer types. Biochemical and morphological correlates are unknown. We aimed to evaluate triglyceride (TG) content and location as a function of computed tomography (CT)-derived measures of skeletal muscle radiodensity in cancer patients.

Microsurgical Nuances of Clipping a Large Thrombosed Aneurysm with Intraoperative Dome Incision and Ultrasonic Aspiration.

We present the case of a 64-year-old male with a 5-day history of headaches. Magnetic resonance angiography revealed a 15 mm × 15 mm diameter aneurysm in the left middle cerebral artery arising in the region of the first branch of the middle cerebral artery-second branch of the middle cerebral artery (M2) bifurcation. Angiography revealed the lesion arose from the M2 vessel that contained a large amount of thrombus.

Immunohistochemical phenotyping of T cells, granulocytes, and phagocytes in the muscle of cancer patients: association with radiologically defined muscle mass and gene expression.

Background: Inflammation is a recognized contributor to muscle wasting. Research in injury and myopathy suggests that interactions between the skeletal muscle and immune cells confer a pro-inflammatory environment that influences muscle loss through several mechanisms; however, this has not been explored in the cancer setting. This study investigated the local immune environment of the muscle by identifying the phenotype of immune cell populations in the muscle and their relationship to muscle mass in cancer patients.
