Behavioral therapies for the treatment of autism spectrum disorder: A systematic review.

Introduction: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopment spectrum characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and interpersonal interaction, along with restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior, interest, or activities. The appropriate screening and diagnosis must be realized to improve the children's prognosis. Moreover, appropriate treatments are necessary to promote better social integration and development.

Estimating the CTDI with helical acquisitions: Results from a national generalizability study.

Background: While many clinical computed tomography (CT) protocols use helical scanning, the traditional method for measuring the volume CT Dose Index (CTDI) requires modifying the helical protocol to perform a single axial rotation. This modification can present challenges and mismatched settings across various scanner models.

Purpose: This study investigates the generalizability of a helical methodology for estimating CTDI across a diverse range of participants, CT scanner models, and protocol parameters.

Factors Associated with Weaning in Infants with Cow's Milk Allergy: A Cohort Study.

To analyze the factors associated with weaning in infants with cow's milk allergy (CMA) treated at a food allergy reference center in a state in the northeast of Brazil. A prospective cohort study, with a case group (children with CMA) and two control groups (symptomatic nonallergic children [SC] and asymptomatic [AC]). At the beginning of the study, 30 children comprised the CMA group, 84 the SC group, and 52 the AC group.

HeartMate 3 Ventricular Assist Device in a Single-Ventricle and Single-Lung Patient Palliated With a Bidirectional Glenn.

We describe a 15 year old patient with failing second-stage single-ventricle palliation and left pulmonary artery thrombosis successfully supported with HeartMate 3 ventricular assist device and a Fontan completion as destination therapy.

Assessing Radiology and Radiation Therapy Needs for Cancer Care in Low-and-Middle-Income Countries: Insight From a Global Survey of Departmental and Institutional Leaders.

Purpose: The global cancer burden and mortality rates are increasing, with significant disparities in access to care in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This study aimed to identify radiology and radiation therapy needs in LMICs from the perspective of departmental and institutional leaders.

Methods And Materials: A survey was developed and conducted by the American Association of Physicists in Medicine Global Needs Assessment Committee and the American Association of Physicists in Medicine International Council.
