A comparison of prompting tactics to establish intraverbals in children with autism.

J Appl Behav Anal

Published: January 2012

We compared the efficacy of tact-to-intraverbal (i.e., using picture prompts) and echoic-to-intraverbal transfer-of-stimulus-control procedures to establish intraverbal responding in 3 boys (4 years old) with autism. For all 3 participants, the picture prompts resulted in fewer trials to criterion, but both prompting tactics were eventually effective.

The rapid progress of antibiotic resistance among bacteria has prompted serious medical concerns regarding how to manage multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacterial infections. One emerging strategy to combat antibiotic resistance is the use of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), which are amino acid chains that act as broad-spectrum antimicrobial molecules and are essential parts of the innate immune system in mammals, fungi, and plants. AMPs have unique antibacterial mechanisms that offer benefits over conventional antibiotics in combating drug-resistant bacterial infections.

Severe pneumonia remains the leading infectious cause of death worldwide. The time-consuming nature and suboptimal sensitivity of sputum cultures hamper prompt pathogen detection for tailored treatments. Advanced techniques such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and next-generation sequencing (NGS) offer rapid genetic pathogen detection and identification of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes.

Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women globally. The difficulties with anticancer medications, such as ineffective targeting, larger doses, toxicity to healthy cells and side effects, have prompted attention to alternate approaches to address these difficulties. RNA interference by small interfering RNA (siRNA) is one such tactic.
