Parent screening questionnaires to detect cognitive and languagedelay at 2 years in high-risk infants: an analysis from the Victorian Infant Collaborative Study 2016-2017 cohort. To determine the accuracy of two developmental screening questionnaires to detect cognitive or languagedelay, defined using the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development-Third Edition (Bayley-III), in children born extremely preterm (EP: <28 weeks' gestation) or extremely low birth weight (ELBW: <1000 g). Prospective cohort study. State of Victoria, Australia. 211 infants born EP/ELBW assessed at 2 years' corrected age (mean 2.2, SD 0.2). Cognitive and languagedelay (<-1 SD) on the Bayley-III. The screening questionnaires were the Parent Report of Children's Abilities-Revised (PARCA-R) and the Ages
[Application of narrow-band optical radiation with a wavelength of 650 nm in complex treatment of children with developmental speechdelay]. To substantiate the use of photochromotherapy (narrow-band optical radiation with an average wavelength of 650 nm) in the complex treatment of children with developmental speechdelay on the type of general speech underdevelopment (GSU) of I and II degree . A number of children equal 70 aged from 4 to 6 years with developmental speechdelay were examined. All patients were randomized into 2 clinically comparable groups: the 1st (study) group included 35 patients who received medical treatment in accordance with clinical recommendations in combination with the use of narrow-band optical radiation with an average wavelength of 650nm for 10 days; the 2nd
Auditory brainstem response findings in autism spectrum disorder speechdelay population. Evaluate pediatric auditory brainstem response (ABR) findings in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) after the 2013 DSM-5 update. This was an IRB-approved, six-year retrospective chart review evaluating ABR results from pediatric patients with speechdelay. Diagnosis of ASD and other neurodevelopmental abnormalities were collected for patient stratification. From 2017 to 2023, 148 pediatric patients with speechdelay were identified through diagnosis of speechdelay and underwent ABR testing. Patients were then separated into two groups: Neurotypical (N = 79) and ASD (N = 69). ABR results were obtained through chart review and waveform and interpeak latency (IPL) results were recorded
Determinants of speech and languagedelay among children aged 12 months to 12 years at Yekatit 12 Hospital, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia: a case-control study. Speech and languagedelay among children can result in social interaction problems, attention difficulties, decreased writing and reading abilities, and poor cognitive and behavioral development. Despite the mounting prevalence of speech and languagedelays in Ethiopia, there is a lack of literature addressing the factors contributing to this delay. Consequently, this study aims to identify determinants of speech and languagedelay among children aged 12 months to 12 years at Yekatit 12 Hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. We conducted an institutional-based at Yekatit 12 Hospital, unmatched case-control study with 50 cases and 100 controls

Time-Series Analysis of First-Time Pediatric SpeechDelays From 2018 to 2022. This cohort study evaluates changes in pediatric speechdelay diagnoses before and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Early Family Intervention in Children with LanguageDelay: The Effect of Language Level and Communication Ability. Language development delay refers to the children's oral expression ability or language understanding ability obviously lagging behind the normal development level of children of the same age. The efficacy of early family intervention in children with languagedelays is promising . The observational study was conducted involving 120 children aged 0∼3 years treated in the pediatric health department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University for languagedelay. They were assessed for eligibility and recruited. The eligible children were grouped by 1 year, 2 years, and 3 years and were assessed on the Gesell Developmental Schedules and Normal Development of Social Skills

Heterozygous variants that disturb the transcriptional repressor activity of FOXP4 cause a developmental disorder with speech/languagedelays and multiple congenital abnormalities. Heterozygous pathogenic variants in various FOXP genes cause specific developmental disorders. The phenotype associated with heterozygous variants in FOXP4 has not been previously described. We assembled a cohort individuals with a missense variant in the forkhead box DNA-binding domain of FOXP4, and one individual with a truncating variant. Overlapping features included speech and languagedelays, growth abnormalities, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, cervical spine abnormalities, and ptosis. Luciferase assays showed loss-of-function effects for all these variants, and aberrant subcellular localization patterns

Results of a Consumer Survey on the Effectiveness of a Nutritional Blend Reported on Autism Spectrum Disorder Symptoms, Apraxia, and Other Conditions Involving Motor and SpeechDelays. The causes and cures for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs), apraxia, and other conditions involving motor and speechdelays remain speculative. To offset symptoms, many individuals will try integrative approaches
The Incredible Years Autism Spectrum and LanguageDelays Parent Program: A Pragmatic, Feasibility Randomized Controlled Trial. Behavior problems in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are common and particularly stressful for parents. This study aimed to examine the feasibility of delivering a parenting program in existing services, and the feasibility of conducting a future large-scale and LanguageDelays (IY-ASLD) parent program immediately or to a wait-list, treatment as usual control condition. IY-ASLD sessions were delivered once a week for 12 weeks. The primary outcomes related to feasibility (recruitment, retention, fidelity, and acceptability). Preliminary outcome analyses were conducted using covariance models controlling for study site and baseline scores. From October 5
The value of diffusion tensor imaging for differentiating autism spectrum disorder with languagedelay from developmental language disorder among toddlers. Impaired language function is frequently observed as an initial sign in people with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, clinically, the early stages of ASD are difficult to distinguish from those of developmental language disorder (DLD ). To evaluate the ability of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) parameters for language-related white matter tracts (arcuate fasciculus) to differentiate ASD from DLD among toddlers. We included 16 ASD toddlers with languagedelay and 18 DLD toddlers in this study. Magnetic resonance imaging sequences included T2-weighted imaging (T2WI), T1 3-dimensional magnetization-prepared rapid acquisition gradient-echo (3D
Predictors of longer-term development of expressive language in two independent longitudinal cohorts of language-delayed preschoolers with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Studies estimate that 30% of individuals with autism are minimally verbal. Understanding what factors predict longer-term expressive development in children with languagedelays is critical to inform identification and treatment of those at-risk for persistent language impairments. The present study examined predictors of expressive language development in language-delayed preschoolers followed through later school-age and young adulthood. Children using single words or less on the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) at approximately 3 years old were drawn from the Early Diagnosis (EDX) and Pathways in ASD longitudinal
Preliminary evaluation of a low-intensity parent training program on speech-language stimulation for children with languagedelay. The study assessed the outcome of a low-intensity parent training program for improving parent's language input to children with languagedelay. Nine parents and their children aged between 12 months to 24 months, exhibiting delay in language development
Pathogenic variants in USP7 cause a neurodevelopmental disorder with speechdelays, altered behavior, and neurologic anomalies. Haploinsufficiency of USP7, located at chromosome 16p13.2, has recently been reported in seven individuals with neurodevelopmental phenotypes, including developmental delay/intellectual disability (DD/ID), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), seizures, and hypogonadism phenotypes of speechdelays including a nonverbal phenotype and abnormal brain magnetic resonance image findings including white matter changes based on neuroradiologic examination. The consistency of clinical features among all individuals presented regardless of de novo USP7 variant type supports haploinsufficiency as a mechanism for pathogenesis and refines the clinical impact faced by affected

One-Year Language Outcomes in Toddlers With LanguageDelays: An RCT Follow-up The current study is a 1-year follow-up analysis of data from a randomized controlled trial of Enhanced Milieu Teaching (EMT) for toddlers with languagedelays. Outcomes and predictors of child language and parent intervention implementation were examined 6 and 12 months after the end of the intervention. Toddlers with languagedelays were recruited from the community, and 97 toddlers and parents were randomly assigned to receive usual community treatments or a 3-month EMT intervention with parent training. Multiple regression analyses were used to estimate the differences between groups at the 6- and 12-month follow-up periods. A subgroup of participants with receptive and expressive languagedelays was used in a post
Comparison of Language Features, Autism Spectrum Symptoms in Children Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, Developmental LanguageDelay, and Healthy Controls Language and communication is very important in social, emotional, and cognitive development of children. Delay in language is the first complaint for children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or developmental languagedelay (DLD). In this study it is aimed to evaluate and compare language profiles and autistic symptoms between children diagnosed with ASD, DLD, and healthy controls. Twenty-six children who are diagnosed with ASD, 43 children who are diagnosed with DLD, and 47 healthy controls are included to study; and all children are in the age of 48-72 months. Test of Early Language Development was used
