Familial risk of myocardial infarction with non-obstructive and obstructive coronary arteries -A nation-wide cohort study.

Background And Aims: The familial risk among patients with myocardial infarction with non-obstructive coronary arteries (MINOCA) is unknown. Previous studies of family history in myocardial infarction (MI), have not made a distinction between MINOCA and MI due to coronary artery disease (MI-CAD), based on angiographic findings. We therefore sought to investigate familial risk of MI without and with obstructive coronary arteries.

Treatment for preschool age children who stutter: Protocol of a randomised, non-inferiority parallel group pragmatic trial with Mini-KIDS, social cognitive behaviour treatment and the Lidcombe Program-TreatPaCS.

Stuttering is a speech disorder in which the flow of speech is disrupted by involuntary repetitions of sounds, syllables, words or phrases, stretched sounds or silent pauses in which the person is unable to produce sounds and sound transitions. Treatment success is the highest if stuttering is treated before the age of 6 years, before it develops into "persistent" stuttering. Stuttering treatment programs that focus directly on the speech of the child, like the Lidcombe Program, have shown to be effective in this age group.

Speech Disfluencies in Bilingual Lebanese Children Who Do and Do Not Stutter.

Purpose: Prior studies have shown that bilingual children who do not stutter (CWNS) exhibit a high number of disfluencies in both languages, increasing the risk of misidentification by speech-language pathologists as children who stutter (CWS). Conversely, there is a risk of misidentifying CWS with a relatively low incidence of disfluencies as CWNS. This study aims to explore the qualitative and quantitative distinctions in speech disfluency profiles between CWNS and CWS.

Cardiovascular medications, high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T concentrations, and long-term outcome in non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome.

Aims: Cardiac troponin plays an essential role in the management of non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS). However, it is not clear whether troponin concentrations provide guidance regarding the initiation of prognostically beneficial cardiovascular medications [i.e.

Could linguistic and cognitive factors, degree of autistic traits and sex predict speech disfluencies in autistic young adults and controls?

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of linguistic complexity and individual background variables (i.e. linguistic and cognitive abilities, degree of autistic traits, and sex) on speech disfluencies in autistic young adults and controls.
