Research continues to highlight discrepancies between clinical diagnoses of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and determination of special education eligibility for services within school settings. However, limited research has been conducted on the impact of those discrepancies for the identification of appropriate services within schools. The aim of the current study is to examine students' characteristics (e.g., language, social emotional) associated with educational eligibility and clinical diagnoses. More specifically, the study examines characteristics differentially associated with ASD diagnoses to inform targeted evidence-based interventions. The study accessed data from a four-year cluster-randomized trial of 283 students with and without reported ASD diagnosis. The results of the study demonstrate that the educational eligibility of Autism did not differentiate between students with and without autism on any of the measured characteristics including language, peer and social competence, academics, and aggressive behaviors. However, the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, second edition (ADOS-2; Lord et al. in Autism diagnostic observation schedule. Western Psychological Services, Torrance, CA, 2012) classification was a more sensitive diagnostic measure for characteristics associated with autism. Implications for research, practitioners, and schools are discussed.The present study investigated whether and to what extent children with dyslexia utilize visual and phonetic strategies in character learning. A paired associate learning paradigm was used in two experiments to train children's pronunciation-orthography associations of novel words, with a recall task 1 week later for retention. Experiment 1 included 32 Mandarin-speaking fifth graders with dyslexia (dyslexia group) and 28 age-matched peers (comparison group) and manipulated the availability of an arbitrary bolded stroke in Chinese character (visual cue, available vs. unavailable) of eight low-frequency real characters. The dyslexia group demonstrated poorer character learning effects than the comparison group, whereas the similar interference effect of visual cues was found across groups. Sixty-six fifth-grade children participated in Experiment 2 (dyslexia, N = 34). The regularity of phonetic cues of 12 pseudo-characters was manipulated into regular, semiregular, irregular, providing full, partial, or no pronunciation cues. The dyslexia group demonstrated comparable learning outcomes of regular pseudo-characters, but poorer learning on semiregular and irregular pseudo-characters than the comparison group. Importantly, they utilize semiregular phonetic cues. In both experiments, the two groups did not differ on the retention of learning. Taken together, children with dyslexia perform poorer in the learning stage, but not in visual or phonetic strategies or the retention of learning. Like their peers, they do not use arbitrary visual cues but utilize phonetic cues, and thus compensate for poor learning of regular characters and alleviate that of semiregular characters.This study investigated the dependability of reading comprehension scores across different text genres and response formats for readers with varied language knowledge. Participants included 78 fourth-graders in an urban elementary school. A randomized and counterbalanced 3 × 2 study design investigated three response formats (open-ended, multiple-choice, retell) and two text genres (narrative, expository) from the Qualitative Reading Inventory (QRI-5) reading comprehension test. Standardized language knowledge measures from the Woodcock Johnson III Tests of Achievement (Academic Knowledge, Oral Comprehension, Picture Vocabulary) defined three reader profiles (a) 100 as proficient. Generalizability studies partitioned variance in scores for reader, text genre, and response format for all three groups. Response format accounted for 42.8 to 62.4% of variance in reading comprehension scores across groups, whereas text genre accounted for very little variance (1.2-4.1%). Single scores were well below a 0.80 dependability threshold (absolute phi coefficients = 0.06-0.14). Decision studies projecting dependability achieved with additional scores varied by response format for each language knowledge group, with very low projected dependability on open-ended and multiple-choice scores for readers with basic language knowledge. Estrogen agonist Multiple-choice scores had similarly low projected dependability levels for readers with emerging language knowledge. Findings evidence interactions between reader language knowledge and response format in reading comprehension assessment practices. Implications underscore the limitations of using a single score to classify readers with and without proficiency in foundational skills.Cellular homeostasis plays a critical role in how an organism will develop and age. Disruption of this fragile equilibrium is often associated with health degradation and ultimately, death. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been closely associated with health decline and neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease. ROS were first identified as by-products of the cellular activity, mainly mitochondrial respiration, and their high reactivity is linked to a disruption of macromolecules such as proteins, lipids and DNA. More recent research suggests more complex function of ROS, reaching far beyond the cellular dysfunction. ROS are active actors in most of the signaling cascades involved in cell development, proliferation and survival, constituting important second messengers. In the brain, their impact on neurons and astrocytes has been associated with synaptic plasticity and neuron survival. This review provides an overview of ROS function in cell signaling in the context of aging and degeneration in the brain and guarding the fragile balance between health and disease.The A11 region plays a role in numerous physiological functions, including pain and locomotor activity, and consists of a variety of neurons including GABAergic, calbindin positive (Calb+), and dopaminergic (DA) neurons. However, the neurochemical nature of Calb+ neurons and their regulatory role in the A11 region remain largely unknown. In this study, we examined the kind of functional markers co-expressed in the Calb+ neurons using sections from 8-week-old rats. To examine a marker related to classical neurotransmitters, we performed in situ hybridization for vesicular glutamate transporter 2 (vGluT2) or glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) 65 and 67, in conjunction with Calb immunohistochemistry. We found cellular co-expression of Calb with vGluT2 or GAD65/67 throughout the A11 region. Nearly all Calb+/GAD65/67+ neurons were found in the rostral-middle aspect of the A11 region. In contrast, Calb+/vGluT2+ neurons were found predominantly in the middle-caudal aspect of the A11 region. For receptors and neuropeptides, we performed immunohistochemistry for androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ), and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP).
