Most children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in resource-limited settings (RLS), are diagnosed after the age of four. Our work confirmed and extended results of Pierce that eye tracking could discriminate between typically developing (TD) children and those with ASD. We demonstrated the initial 15 s was at least as discriminating as the entire video. We evaluated the GP-MCHAT-R, which combines the first 15 s of manually-coded gaze preference (GP) video with M-CHAT-R results on 73 TD children and 28 children with ASD, 36-99 months of age. The GP-MCHAT-R (AUC = 0.89 (95%CI: 0.82-0.95)), performed significantly better than the MCHAT-R (AUC = 0.78 (95%CI: 0.71-0.85)) and gaze preference (AUC = 0.76 (95%CI: 0.64-0.88)) alone. This tool may enable early screening for ASD in RLS.

Context.—: Digital pathology requires pathologists to assess tissue digitally rather than on an analog microscope, which has been the mainstay tool for tissue assessment for more than a century. The impact of different digital interaction configurations on pathologists' performance is not well understood.

Purpose: Understanding the impact of vision impairment on dynamic tasks requiring visual processing is crucial for developing effective adaptive strategies that support individuals with vision impairment in optimizing their performance in natural tasks. This study aimed to establish the gaze patterns used by individuals with vision impairment when hitting a moving target.
Methods: Nineteen tennis players with vision impairment were recruited and their eye and head movements were tracked while they returned tennis serves.

Humans consistently land their first saccade to a face at a preferred fixation location (PFL). Humans also typically process faces as wholes, as evidenced by perceptual effects such as the composite face effect (CFE). However, not known is whether an individual's tendency to process faces as wholes varies with their gaze patterns on the face.

Newer Direct-Acting OACs(DOACs) attain therapeutic effect very quickly. We report the use of dabigatran as bridging therapy during warfarin optimization for cardioembolic stroke in two patients who opted to receive warfarin for long-term anticoagulation for secondary stroke prevention.

Air embolisms can be caused by trauma, barotrauma, or due to surgical procedures in neurosurgery, vascular surgery, and cardiac surgery. An atrial-esophageal fistula (AEF) is a life-threatening complication that can occur following left atrial ablation therapy, which is used to treat refractory atrial fibrillation (Afib). AEF, if left untreated, can lead to serious neurological complications such as pneumocephalus.
