This experimental study was designed to validate a short-term supplemental reading intervention for at-risk first-grade children. Although substantial research on long-term supplemental reading interventions exists, less is known about short-term interventions. Thirty first-grade children were randomly assigned to intervention or control conditions. Students in the intervention received 16 hours of instruction. Analyses of pre- and posttest data and growth measures suggest that short-term supplemental reading intervention had a significant effect on children's reading skills; however, effects were not consistent across measures. Parent and teacher ratings moderated significant effects. Findings support the validity of a brief intervention for students at risk for reading failure that may inform Tier 2 interventions within a Response to Intervention framework.

False-Negative Review from the Mammography Audit: Refining Breast Imaging Practice.
Radiographics

Annual review of false-negative (FN) mammograms is a mandatory and critical component of the Mammography Quality Standards Act (MQSA) annual mammography audit. FN review can help hone reading skills and improve the ability to detect cancers at mammography. Subtle architectural distortion, asymmetries (seen only on one view), small lesions, lesions with probably benign appearance (circumscribed regular borders), isolated microcalcifications, and skin thickening are the most common mammographic findings when the malignancy is visible at retrospective review of FN mammograms.

Background: Telehealth programs and wearable sensors that enable patients to monitor their vital signs have expanded due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The electronic National Early Warning Score (e-NEWS) system helps identify and respond to acute illness.
Objective: This study aimed to implement and evaluate a comprehensive telehealth system to monitor vital signs using e-NEWS for patients receiving integrated home-based medical care (iHBMC).
Extracellular vesicles support increased expansion of mesenchymal stromal cells on fetal membrane-derived decellularized extracellular matrix.

Article Synopsis
- DMSC-derived extracellular vesicles (DMSC_EV) were shown to enhance DMSC proliferation and mobility on specific growth surfaces, particularly s-dAM.
- DMSC attachment varied based on the substrate, with increased attachment observed on decellularized surfaces and Matrigel when EVs were included.
- The study highlights that combining in vitro EVs and extracellular matrix (ECM) components can optimize the expansion and therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for various applications.

Purpose To determine the prevalence of mitral annular disjunction (MAD) in patients undergoing cardiac MRI for various clinical indications and to assess the association of MAD with arrhythmia, mitral valve prolapse (MVP), and myocardial alteration. Materials and Methods This study analyzed data from a retrospective observational registry of consecutive patients undergoing cardiac MRI for different clinical indications. Cardiac MRI examinations were performed from January 2019 to June 2019 at 13 Italian hospitals.

Methemoglobinemia is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition in which hemoglobin is oxidized, impairing the oxygen-carrying capacity. While congenital forms exist, acquired methemoglobinemia can occur in perioperative settings, especially following exposure to oxidizing agents such as dyes used in sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). Patent Blue V, a synthetic aniline dye commonly used for SLNB, has been associated with rare but serious adverse effects, including methemoglobinemia.
