The purpose of this study was to evaluate a global deficit in sequential processing as candidate endophenotypein a family with familial childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). Of 10 adults and 13 children in a three-generational family with speech sound disorder (SSD) consistent with CAS, 3 adults and 6 children had past or present SSD diagnoses. Two preschoolers with unremediated CAS showed a high number of sequencing errors during single-word production. Performance on tasks with high sequential processing loads differentiated between the affected and unaffected family members, whereas there were no group differences in tasks with low processing loads. Adults with a history of SSD produced more sequencing errors during nonword and multisyllabic real word imitation, compared to those without such a history. Results are consistent with a global deficit in sequential processing that influences speech development as well as cognitive and linguistic processing.

Background: A subset of developmental disorders (DD) is characterized by disease-specific genome-wide methylation changes. These episignatures inform on the underlying pathogenic mechanisms and can be used to assess the pathogenicity of genomic variants as well as confirm clinical diagnoses. Currently, the detection of these episignature requires the use of indirect methylation profiling methodologies.

Purpose: This article introduces a novel deep learning approach to substantially improve the accuracy of colon segmentation even with limited data annotation, which enhances the overall effectiveness of the CT colonography pipeline in clinical settings.
Methods: The proposed approach integrates 3D contextual information via guided sequential episodic training in which a query CT slice is segmented by exploiting its previous labeled CT slice (i.e.

Background: To integrate valves, manifolds, and solid-phase extraction (SPE) columns into a compact device is technically difficult. Four-dimensional printing (4DP) technologies, employing stimuli-responsive materials in three-dimensional printing (3DP), are revolutionizing the fabrication, functionality, and applicability of stimuli-responsive analytical devices that can show time-dependent shape programming to enable more complex geometric designs and functions. However, 4D-printed stimuli-responsive actuators and valves utilized to control flowing streams in SPE applications remain rare.

Recently, the field of multimodal large language models (MLLMs) has grown rapidly, with many Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) relying on sequential visual representations. In these models, images are broken down into numerous tokens before being fed into the Large Language Model (LLM) alongside text prompts. However, the opaque nature of these models poses significant challenges to their interpretability, particularly when dealing with complex reasoning tasks.
