(1) Background: This study explored the effect of short vestibular and cognitive training on the reading speed in dyslexic children. (2) Methods: The reading speed was evaluated by using a reading test (Évaluation de la Lecture en FluencE, ELFE) in a crossover design before (baseline) and after vestibular training (post VT) and no vestibular training (post no VT). Nineteen dyslexic children (9.

Several studies in children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) including autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), reading impairment, or attention deficit/hyperactive disorder (ADHD) pointed toward a potential dysfunction of the vestibular system, specifically in its complex relationship with the cerebellum. The aim of the present study was to test the functional vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) responses in children with NDDs to measure functional performance of the vestibular system. The VOR is specifically involved in this stabilization of the image on the retina during rapid movements of the head.

- The aging population is facing an increase in frail individuals, with around 11% classified as frail and 42% as pre-frail, prompting a need for early detection and intervention.
- The paper discusses the importance of individual longitudinal monitoring (ILM) to track and identify pre-frailty among those over 60, aiming to develop targeted treatments to restore health.
- It advocates for the extension of pre-frailty detection to all age groups and emphasizes the need for coordinated caregiver actions, suggesting that frailty can affect individuals of any age, not just the elderly.
