Purpose: We asked whether children with developmental language disorder can learn vocabulary or grammar targets and curricular content simultaneously. We replicated prior work integrating two language interventions into a first-grade science curriculum and extended it by testing delivery via teletherapy.
Method: A parallel arm randomised controlled trial was conducted using telehealth approaches.
Purpose: Children with developmental language disorder frequently have difficulty with both academic success and language learning and use. This clinical focus article describes core principles derived from a larger program of research (National Science Foundation 1748298) on language intervention combined with science instruction for preschoolers. It serves as an illustration of a model for integrating language intervention with curricular content delivery.

Clinical treatment involves bony bar resection and implantation of an interpositional material, but success is limited and the bony bar often reforms. No treatment attempts to regenerate the growth plate cartilage.

Plants can be a valuable and cost-effective source for producing well-structured recombinant enzymes. Glucose is one of the most important biological molecules, providing energy to most living systems.

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been shown to play a role in bony bar formation, making it a potential target to inhibit bony repair tissue after physeal injury. The goal of this study was to investigate whether the local delivery of anti-VEGF antibody (α-VEGF; 7.
