We propose a method called inter-modality source coupling (IMSC) to study the coupling between the function and structure of the brain and its relationship to reading ability in school-age children. We performed an analysis focused on the relationship of IMSC to overall reading score. Our findings indicate that key brain regions are linked to differences in function-structure coupling in the context of reading ability and language processing. Higher reading ability was linked with increased function-structure coupling among higher-level cortical regions and lower reading ability was associated with enhanced function-structure coupling among occipital networks and early language processes areas.

Background: Oral language skills are a critical foundation for education and psychosocial development. Learning to read, in particular, depends heavily on oral language skills. The Nuffield Early Language Intervention (NELI) has been shown to improve the language of 4-5-year-old children entering school with language weaknesses in four robust trials.

Lime and NaS, used in dehairing in the tannery industry, cause the generation of toxic wastes. Ecological security and financial issues demand a look for innovative approaches to leather dehairing free from pollution. The primary goal of this investigation was to explore keratinolytic protease producing bacteria from tannery waste, their genomic evaluation and to assess their possible use in the dehairing process.

Learning to read affects speech perception. For example, the ability of listeners to recognize consistently spelled words faster than inconsistently spelled words is a robust finding called the Orthographic Consistency Effect (OCE). Previous studies located the OCE at the rime level and focused on languages with opaque orthographies.

Heart failure (HF) is the most common cause of death worldwide, characterized by low ejection fraction, substantial mortality, morbidity, and poor quality of life. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present a promising avenue for enhancing diagnostic precision, particularly in the analysis of electrocardiogram (ECG) data. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to synthesize current evidence on the diagnostic performance of AI models in detecting HF using ECG data.
