A Systematic Literature Review on School-Based Speech-Language Pathology Collaboration Research.

Purpose: School-based teams are called to be collaborative in order to appropriately and effectively serve students. Speech-language pathologists play crucial roles on school-based teams. This systematic review sought to synthesize existing empirical evidence on collaborative perceptions and experiences in research that included school-based speech-language pathologists (SLPs).

totally implantable venous access device infection in a person with cystic fibrosis: Complex management considerations.

Totally implantable venous access devices (TIVADs) are frequently used in people with cystic fibrosis as a means of securing consistent vascular access, particularly in the context of severe disease and microbial colonization. Infection of TIVADs is not uncommon and typically associated with coagulase negative staphylococci, though infection with other organisms does occur too. We report on the first case of a TIVAD infection caused by in person with cystic fibrosis.

Performance of the WID-qEC test to detect uterine cancers in black women with abnormal uterine bleeding: A prospective observational cohort study in Ghana.

The burden of uterine cancer is growing and, in the US and UK, mortality rates are poorest among black women. Early detection of these cancers is critical and poor performance of ultrasound in black women may contribute to adverse outcomes. Limited data on this topic are available from Africa.

Prevalence, Symptom Profiles, and Correlates of Mixed Anxiety-Depression in Male and Female Autistic Youth.

Relatively little attention has been given to mixed anxiety and depression in autistic youth, particularly how this differs between males and females. This study investigated sex-based differences in the prevalence and correlates of mixed anxiety and depression in a sample of 51 autistic males ( age = 10.16 yr, SD = 2.

Phenotypic Evaluation of Rare Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator Mutation Combinations in People with Cystic Fibrosis in Queensland, Australia.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a multisystem disorder caused by mutations in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. We describe the distribution of CFTR mutation profiles in sub-tropical Queensland, Australia, and characterise the phenotypes associated with 'rare' CFTR mutation combinations. We conducted a retrospective observational study to analyse the CFTR mutation profiles of 322 people with CF (pwCF) under the care of a large adult CF centre in Queensland, Australia.
