Abstract:

21 kindergarten children completed the Stanford-Binet-IV (Binet-IV) and the McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities. Kaufman's (1977) estimated General Cognitive Index (GCI) was computed from the entire McCarthy scales. There was only one significant difference among the Binet-IV and estimated GCI scores. Abstract/Visual Reasoning was significantly lower than the Kaufman GCI. Correlations of the five Binet-IV Standard Age Scores and the Kaufman GCI ranged from .29 to .67. The correlation between the GCI and the Kaufman estimated GCI was .91.

Abstract:

A modified administration of the Kent Infant Development Scale for infants 6 to 8 mo. old was used in a prospective study of risk factors in infant development. The Mental Development Index and Psychomotor Development Index of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development were also administered at 6 mo., the Mental Index only at 1 and 2 yr. and the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale at age 3. The modified administration is described. Concurrent validity with the 6-mo. Bayley scales was substantial. Adequate predictive validity for 1- and 2-yr. Bayley scores and 3-yr. Stanford-Binet IQ was achieved with the Kent as compared to the predictive ability of the 6-mo. Bayley index.

Abstract:

AbstractStudies of developmental progress in high-risk twins have disparate findings. In this study, we report the outcome of 45 twin pairs born between 26 and 37 weeks gestation, and whose birthweights ranged from 840 to 2000 g. No significant differences were found for weight, risk and birth order. However, earlier preterm infants were found to have significantly lower mental scores on the Bayley Scales of Infant Development at 24 months, and lower IQ scores on the Stanford Binet Intelligence Scale at 36 months. These findings imply that gestational age is a powerful variable in determining developmental outcome.

In a sample of 3- and 5-yr.-old children, smoking in the home was found to be significantly and inversely related to IQ. Children of normal birth weight and without neurological impairment had been enrolled in a longitudinal study of child development. Analyses were conducted with sex, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, educational stimulation in the home, day care, and mother's intelligence controlled. Significant results were obtained for scores on the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test–Revised at age three years and on the major Stanford-Binet Fourth Edition scales at ages three and five years. All effects were for the mother, not the father, smoking in the home.

Abstract:

AbstractThe Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Third Edition (Bayley-III) and Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, Fifth Edition (SB5) were administered in a sample of 26 typically developing children (12 males and 14 females) aged 24–42 months. Children completed the assessments in two separate sessions, counterbalanced for order of administration. Scores on the two instruments were not significantly related, with the exception of the SB5 Knowledge score, which was moderately correlated with the Language score on the Bayley-III (r = .41, p = .04). Despite no other significant correlations, for 22 of the 26 children, scores were very consistent across the two instruments. Implications for test selection are discussed.

Abstract:

Abstract A review of hospital records was conducted for children evaluated for autism spectrum disorders who completed both the Leiter International Performance Scale—Revised (Leiter-R) and Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales, 5th Edition (SB5). Participants were between 3 and 12 years of age. Diagnoses were autistic disorder (n = 26, 55%) and pervasive developmental disorder–not otherwise specified (n = 21, 45%). Analysis showed that the full sample received significantly higher scores on the Leiter-R than SB5 (mean discrepancy of 20.91 points), specific diagnosis was not a significant factor, and younger children had a larger discrepancy between tests. These analyses strongly suggest that the Leiter-R and the SB5 may not be equivalent measures of intellectual functioning in children with autism spectrum disorders, and that use of one or the other exclusively could lead to misclassification of intellectual capacity.

Abstract:

We surveyed instructors at APA-accredited clinical and school psychology programs across the United States and Canada to determine typical teaching practices in individual intelligence testing courses. The most recent versions of the Wechsler scales (Wechsler, 1989, 1991, 1997) and the Stanford-Binet (Thorndike, Hagan & Sattler, 1986) remain the primary tests taught in this course. Course instructors emphasized having students administer intelligence tests; however, relatively few instructors reported assessing students' final level of competence with regard to their test administration skills. The intelligence testing course appears quite time-intensive for instructors, and many teach the course with the aid of a teaching assistant. When compared with previous findings, current results suggest a good measure of stability over time regarding the core issues addressed and skills taught in the intelligence testing course.

Abstract:

Two tests of intellectual ability were compared in terms of quantitative measures and professional utility in the context of 41 students who were referred for psychoeducational investigation of their learning. Full-scale, Composite, and Factor scores from The Stanford Binet Intelligence Scales — Fifth Edition (SB5) and the Das Naglieri Cognitive Assessment System (CAS) were compared and individual profiles were examined. The SB5 is the latest version of a traditional test referenced to the Cattell-Horn-Carroll factor model of intelligence, while the CAS was developed from an information processing theory of intelligence. Full-scale measures of intellectual ability were found to differ significantly, with the SB5 approximately 8 points higher than the CAS. Analysis of the profiles assisted in understanding specific learning abilities and guided interventions. The implications of this for the relative utility of the two instruments, their interchangeablity, the meaningful interpretation of results, and their complementary contribution to practice are discussed.

Abstract:

7572 Background: The GCLLSG evaluated the efficacy of fludarabine (F) versus (vs.) chlorambucil (Clb) in first line therapy of older patients with advanced CLL. HRQOL was evluated by using the EORTC C30 questionnaire. Methods: Pts were randomized to receive 6 courses of F (25 mg/m²/day (d) IV for 5d; 92 pts) or 12 months (mo) of Clb (0.4–0.8 mg/kg/d PO, every 15d; 99 pts). All pts were previously untreated, aged between 65 and 79 years and in advanced stage Binet C or symptomatic Binet B or A. Primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS), secondary endpoint was HRQOL. The EORTC C30 questionnaire (version 2.0) was sent to all patients at baseline and after 6, 12 and 24 mo. Scores (0–100) for 15 different measures (1 global HRQOL, 5 functional, 3 symptom and 6 single item scales) were evaluated at each time point. Results: F induced significantly higher response rates and prolonged the PFS, while no significant difference in OS was observed. At baseline 130 of 191 pts (68%) completed the questionnaires followed by more than 80% at mo 6 to 24. Compliance rates were similar in both treatment arms. Between pts completing questionnaires or not no statistically significant differences in perfomance status, age, stage or response to treatment were observed. HRQOL differences in comparison to baseline values were significantly improved after F treatment in global HRQOL, role and social functioning after 12 months as shown by the table. Responders had a significantly better global HRQOL and social functioning as well. Except for an impaired physical functioning no differences in HRQOL were observed between different age groups (65–69, 70–74, 75–79). Conclusion: Elderly F treated patients with CLL showed improvement inglobal HRQOL. Elderly age groups had a similar HRQOL as younger age groups. [Table: see text] [Table: see text]

Abstract:

AbstractQuestions about the development of multiple birth infants have accompanied an increase in their rate. Multiple birth has been associated with preterm birth and a higher incidence of disability than for singletons. The possible influence of birth order (first vs. second born), gender, and birthweight were considered at 4 years in 56 twins (28 pairs) who weighed less than 1500 grams at birth. Gender and birth order differences did not produce significont results in the cognitive, language, behaviour, and motor areas assessed. However, some significant findings in these areas were revealed when children < 1000 and ≥ 1000 grams were compared. The lighter weight group performed less well than the heavier group on the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, in Abstract/Visual Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning, and Test Composite. Furthermore, results were significantly lower for Fine Motor and Motor Standard Score (Motor Skills Domain of the Vineland Behavior Scales) and for Quality of Language and Intelligibility of Speech. Twins < 1000 grams birthweight need close educational surveillance prior to school entry.

Abstract:

Over 100 years have passed since Binet and Simon proposed scales for assessment of intelligence of children to predict academic success and failure. The extension of these assessments to adults largely resulted from efforts of psychologists to provide insights for military selection in World War I. At the time, relatively little thought was given to how adult intelligence might differ from child and adolescent intelligence. Traditional approaches for assessing adult intelligence have largely survived. However, there is little reference to adult intellectual functioning outside of laboratory-based tasks and clinical assessments of pathology. The result is that there are insufficient criterion measures for adult intelligence. Moreover, researchers have shifted from treating intelligence tests as predictors to treating them as criterion measures. The result is a disconnection between basic research on one hand and understanding adult intelligence on the other hand. This lack of connection is a serious impediment for predicting individual differences in performance on tasks which adults perform in their day-to-day work and nonwork lives. This article explores how the field has come to the current situation, and what remedies might be explored. Ultimately, a fundamental reexamination of how adult intelligence is studied and applied is suggested.

Background Cerebral palsy is the main cause of physical disabilityduring childhood. Assessment is necessary to acknowledge thelevel of intelligence of the patients and to prevent impairmentsin order to plan the prompt intervention.Objectives To evaluate the cognitive levels of cerebral palsy andassociation between cognitive levels and its types.Methods We conducted a cross-sectional study on subjectsfrom Sekolah Luar Biasa Negeri 3 Yogyakarta. Intelligence wasmeasured using the Stanford-Binet intelligence scales, whereasdiagnosis of cerebral palsy was based on criteria of the AmericanAcademy for Cerebral Palsy (AACP). Data were analyzed usingchi-square test.Results There were 35 subjects, comprising of 21 boys and 14girls aged 5-18 years. The results show that in general, childrenwith cerebral palsy had mental retardation in several cognitivelevels. Children with hemiplegia type (1 subject) had IQ level that equals to mental retardation. Children with spastic diplegia type (6 subjects) showed borderline IQ (1) and mental retardation (5). Children with quadriplegia type ( 15 subjects) had superior IQ (1), borderline (7) and mental retardation (7). Out of 13 subjects with athetoid type 2, had borderline IQ (2), and mental retardation (11). The statistical analysis with chi-square test resulted in P = 0.114 (P < 0.05).Conclusion Our data showed that most patients with cerebral palsy had mental retardation of several cognitive level but there was no significant association between each type of cerebral palsy with cognitive levels.

Abstract:

This study examined the relation of negative emotionality in infancy to child social and cognitive developmental outcomes among low birth weight (LBW) preterm infants participating in the Infant Health and Development Program (IHDP), a comprehensive compensatory education intervention beginning in infancy and lasting through age 3 years. In this analysis, intervention effects at age 36 months on maternal report of child behavior as assessed by the Child Behavior Checklist externalizing and internalizing scales and on intelligence as measured by the Stanford–Binet scale were largest among children characterized by higher levels of negative emotionality in infancy. Findings indicate that for LBW preterm infants characterized by negative emotionality at age 12 months the intervention was associated with a twofold decrease in the occurrence of clinically meaningful levels of behavior problems at age 3 years and a fourfold decrease in the occurrence of a high-risk profile in which both internalizing and externalizing scores are in the clinically meaningful range. The intervention was also associated with a fivefold decrease in the occurrence of IQ ≤ 75 at age 3 years among children with higher levels of negative emotionality and heavier LBW (2001–2500 g). However, specific aspects of temperamental difficulty such as fearfulness and anger were related to internalizing and externalizing, respectively, in both the intervention and control groups. Findings are consistent with research linking negative emotionality in infancy with social and cognitive developmental outcomes in early childhood among normal birth weight infants. Results suggest the need for further attention to child temperament in early intervention research.

Abstract Abstract 3438 Poster Board III-326 INTRODUCTION Chemoimmunotherapies like the FCR combination have been shown to increase complete remission rates and progression-free survival in patients with CLL in comparison to chemotherapies without biologicals (Hallek et al., ASH 2008). Until now little is known on HRQOL outcome of CLL patients receiving chemoimmunotherapy. Therefore we assessed the HRQOL in patients with advanced CLL, who were randomized between FC and FCR treatment within an international randomized trial of the German CLL Study Group (GCLLSG). METHODS 817 pts with good physical fitness as defined by a cumulative illness rating scale (CIRS) score of up to 6 and a creatinine clearance (cr cl) ≥ 70 ml/min were enrolled between July 2003 and March 2006. Pts were randomly assigned to receive 6 courses of either FC (N=409; F 25mg/m2 i.v. d1–3 and C 250 mg/m2 i.v. d1–3; q 28 days) or FC plus R (N=408; 375 mg/m2 i.v. d 0 at first cycle and 500 mg/m2 d1 all subsequent cycles; q 28 days). The EORTC C30 questionnaires were sent to all patients included in Germany or Austria at baseline, after 3, 6, 12 months (mo) and then in yearly follow-up (FU). In all other countries questionnaires were handed out to the patients personally on the same time points during their visits in the study center. The analysis of the questionnaires was performed according to the EORTC recommendations (Aaronson et al., 1993). The questionnaire contained a global health scale, five functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional and social), three symptom scales (fatigue, pain, nausea and vomiting) as well as six single items (dyspnea, appetite loss, sleep disturbances, financial impact, constipation and diarrhea). Mean score values of the EORTC scales ranged between 0 and 100. High scores in the functional scales represent good HRQOL, low scores in the symptom scales a low symptom burden. RESULTS HRQOL was evaluated in 763 (93%) of the included patients who completed at least one questionnaire (376 (49%) FC and 387 (51%) FCR treated patients). The compliance rate was significantly higher in those countries, where the questionnaire was handed out personally (96% in other countries versus 92% in Germany and Austria; P=0.013). Pts answering the baseline questionnaire and at least one further questionnaire (444; 58%) were compared to those how did not (319, 42%): pts with only one or a missing baseline questionnaire had a significantly higher CIRS score (1,7 vs 1,4; P=0.007) and more frequently leukocytopenias (24% CTC grade 3 and 4 leukocytopenias vs 13%; P< 0.001). Age, distribution of Binet stages, gender, poor prognostic factors (del(11q) or del(17p), unmutated IgVH) and treatment arms were similar distributed between both groups. There were also no differences in the rate of other toxicities or response rates. A total of 482 questionnaires were available initially, 406 at interim staging, 454 at final staging, 496 after 12 mo FU, 414 after 24 mo FU and 198 after 36 mo FU. A comparison of the two treatment arms at interim or final staging after 3 and 6 months respectively showed no significant difference between both arms with regards to the global health status, functional scales and symptom scales. Dyspnoe was scored significantly higher during FC treatment in comparison to FCR (23 versus 18; P = 0.023). At 12, 24 and 36 months of FU no significant difference between FC and FCR in all functional scales, symptom scales, single item and global health status was found. Both treatment arms showed slight improvement (defined as difference of 5-10 points) of global health status at 12 months FU in comparison to baseline (FC: 62 at baseline vs 68 at FU 12; FCR: 62 vs 70). CONCLUSIONS Although the FCR regimen is associated with a higher rate of cytopenias in patients' perception this increased hematological toxicity does not result in a difference in HRQOL between both treatment arms. After a median observation time of 38 mo the better efficacy of the FCR regimen with regards on response rates and progression-free survival does not yet result in an improved HRQOL. For the final evaluation of HRQOL outcome after chemoimmunotherapy a longer is FU is needed.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective An investigation into memory and intellectual functioning of 18 individuals with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) was undertaken. Method Ten children [mean age=8.9 (SD = 3.4; range = 5-16), 54.5% male, 81.9% Caucasian, 9.1% African American, 9.1% mixed race] and 9 adults [mean age = 55.7 (SD = 23.9; range = 19-88), 63.6% male, 90.9% Caucasian, 9.1% African American] completed neuropsychological assessments. One individual completed initial assessment as a child and underwent re-evaluation as an adult, and 1 child and 2 adults completed re-evaluations. Results For adults, the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-4/3) was administered. For children, Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-5/4), Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence (WPPSI-3), Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales (SB-5), and WAIS-3 were utilized. Mean Full Scale IQ (FSIQ) in adults was 83.4 (SD = 12.8; range 69-98) and in children was 83.8 (SD = 11.6; range 65-102). Visual and verbal memory was assessed with a variety of instruments, and performance ranged from impaired to high normal across immediate recall (percentile range < 1-98), delayed recall (percentile range < 1-91), and delayed recognition (percentile range < 1-91). Conclusions Mean intelligence among persons in this NF-1 clinical sample was found to be in low average range. Many persons with NF-1 showed mean immediate and delayed verbal recall in normal range, though a subset of individuals demonstrated impaired range verbal memory. Overall, children with NF-1 tend to show memory performance at levels above their own IQ level. Adults with NF-1 frequently perform at levels equivalent to or above their IQ level, albeit with exceptions evidenced among a subset of adults.

Abstract:

Can music be rated consistently using icon descriptors without verbal mediation? Sixty-eight participants rated six experimenter- and two self-selected pieces of music along 15 bipolar icon scales intended to portray emotions, and sensory experiences involving color, temperature, shape, speed, texture, and weight. Several replications were reported, including Mozart being blue, Brahms being soft and Bizet being takete (a jagged shape). Crossmodal associations with individual pieces were similar to those reported in previous studies, but self-selected liked and disliked musics did not evoke as many such associations, leading to the conclusion that crossmodal perception may be indicative of music character more so than it is of hedonic tone. The similarity of results in the present study and previous research suggests that icon scales may provide a convenient alternative to sensory scales in various modalities that are difficult to reproduce via current conventional computer interface technology.

Abstract:

Background. Breastfeeding provides unsurpassed natural nutrition to the newborn and infant. It has a nearly perfect mix of food elements and vitamins that infants need to grow up. Nonetheless, the tendency for breastfeeding remains below the expected levels. Objectives. To explore the attitudes and barriers to breastfeeding among mothers in Princess Nourah Abdulrahman University (PNU), Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Methods. A cross-sectional study was conducted, from January to April 2019; 399 PNU students, employees, and faculty mothers aged 18 years and above with experience of childbirth and breastfeeding were included in the study using a predesigned validated questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of four scales: sociodemographic, attitude toward breastfeeding, barriers to breastfeeding, and induced lactation knowledge. Results. The participants’ mean age was 34.1 ± 10.4 years; most (87.8%) were Saudi; 92.8% were married; 62% had a bachelor’s degree; and 43% had “enough income.” While 40% of the mothers reported >6 months “exclusive breastfeeding” for the first baby, only 34.8% did so for the last baby, and 54.5% did so for most of all babies altogether. The mothers’ parity ranged between 1 birth and 4 births in 23.5% and 17.5% of the participants, respectively. An overall score of breastfeeding attitude averaged 59.6 ± 7.3. The tendency for scoring a negative attitude to breastfeeding was significantly reported ( p < 0.5 ) among 127 (31.8%) 31- to 40-year-old mothers; 153 (38.3%) bachelor’s degree holders; and 157 (39.3%) employees (χ2 (4) 14.6, p = 0.006; χ2 (4) 10.4, p = 0.034; and χ2 (4) 20.4, p < 0.001, respectively). “Mother’s illness” was the most commonly (63%) reported barrier to “not to breastfeed,” followed by “work” (45.5%) and “father not supporting breastfeeding” (14.8%). Conclusions. An overall negative attitude toward breastfeeding among PNU mothers was noted. Barriers included mother’s sickness and work. Efforts to minimize such negative attitudes and barriers among susceptible mothers are warranted.

Abstract:

Objective: To evaluate the effect of adenotonsillectomy (AT), in children with Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), on the cognitive and scholastic achievement. Study Design: Prospective study Sitting: Tertiary care hospital (Minia university hospital) Subjects and Methods: 50 children were selected, complaining of symptoms of (OSA) and seeking adenotonsillectomy compared to another control group of 50 children without symptoms of OSA. The study sample were subjected to clinical evaluation where hypertrophied palatine tonsils and Adenoid were the cause of OSA. Polysomnography, audiological evaluation were done and All 50 children underwent a battery of neurocognitive tests including process-oriented intelligence scales (Stanford Binet Intelligence scale and Illinois Test of psycholinguistic ability) pre and post adenotonsillectomy to reveal the effect of (AT) on the cognitive and scholastic achievement of those children. Results: Children with OSA had lower scores in neurocognitive tests (Illinois test and Stanford Binet intelligent scale), as well as. In Academic performance in comparison to the control group. After 8 months from AT, the children with OSA demonstrated highly significant improvement in IQ, Mental age, auditory perceptual assessment (APA), PLA of VSM (Visual sequential memory), AA (Auditory association) VA (Visual association), AC (Auditory closure), VC (Visual closure), GC (Grammatic closure) and SB (Sound Blending). Conclusions: School performance and Neurocognitive functions are worsened in children with Adenotonsillar hypertrophy, this effect is reversible as improvement occurred after their removal.

Abstract:

Background: Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is an autosomal recessive hemoglobinopathy containing mutant sickle cell Hemoglobin (HbS). Acute and chronic organ dysfunction, chronic hemolytic anemia, and recurrent painful episodes are the main features of sickle cell disease. There is a wide variety of neurological complications, including: headache, cognitive difficulties, seizures, visual loss, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, transient ischemic attacks, soft neurological signs coma, altered mental status and covert or silent infarction. Moyamoya is an uncommon cerebral vasculopathy that’s also found in children with SCD. Case Presentation: Here, we reported two children diagnosed with SCD who presented with headache, recurrent ischemic strokes, seizures and cognitive decline. They showed abnormalities on different neuroimaging including: CT and /or MRI, MRA and/or CT angiography, also transcranial color coded duplex, EEG and Stanford-Binet Intelligence scales-Fifth Edition. They also showed abnormal level of protein C and protein S. They also had irregular blood transfusion and were diagnosed as Moyamoya syndrome. Conclusion: According to our findings, Moyamoya syndrome was a rare complication of SCD in children, but should be considered with proper approach, diagnosis and management.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Preterm birth is associated with lower neurocognitive performance. However, whether children’s neurodevelopment improves with longer gestations within the full-term range (37–41 weeks) is unclear. Given the high rate of obstetric intervention in the USA, it is critical to determine whether long-term outcomes differ for children delivered at each week of term. Methods This secondary analysis included 39 199 live-born singleton children of women who were admitted to the hospital in spontaneous labour from the US Collaborative Perinatal Project (1959–76). At each week of term gestation, we evaluated development at 8 months using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development, 4 years using the Stanford–Binet IQ (SBIQ) domains and 7 years using the Wechsler Intelligence Scales for Children (WISC) and Wide-Range Achievement Tests (WRAT). Results Children’s neurocognitive performance improved with each week of gestation from 37 weeks, peaking at 40 or 41 weeks. Relative to those delivered at 40 weeks, children had lower neurocognitive scores at 37 and 38 weeks for all assessments except SBIQ and WISC Performance IQ. Children delivered at 39 weeks had lower Bayley Mental (β = −1.18; confidence interval −1.77, −0.58) and Psychomotor (β = −1.18; confidence interval −1.90, −0.46) scores. Results were similar for within-family analyses comparing siblings, with the addition of lower WRAT scores at 39 weeks. Conclusions The improvement in development scores across assessment periods indicates that each week up to 40 or 41 weeks of gestation is important for short- and long-term cognitive development, suggesting 40–41 weeks may be the ideal delivery window for optimal neurodevelopmental outcomes.

Abstract:

Abstract Background The description of childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) a benign self-limited generalized epilepsy has become a matter of debate. The objectives of this work were to evaluate the existence of psychiatric and cognitive impairments among patients with typical CAE and to correlate their possible relation to seizure frequency, duration of epilepsy, IISL, and valproate therapy. Methods The study was conducted on 19 typical CAE patients receiving valproate therapy, 11 newly diagnosed CAE patients not receiving AEDs, and 30 healthy control subjects (HCS). Participants were subjected to medical history taking, EEG monitoring, child behavior checklist (CBCL), Stanford Binet Intelligence Scale 5th edition, and computerized psychometric tests that assess cognitive domains and executive functions. Results The study revealed a high rate of cognitive and psychiatric dysfunctions in CAE patients. 53.3% of patients had psychiatric problems versus 16.6% in HCS. Attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD) (26.6%), anxiety (16.6%), and depression (6.6%) were the most common psychiatric disorders in the patient group. Withdrawn/depressed symptoms, thought problems, social problems, and attention problems in CAE patients were significantly increased compared to HCS. At the same time, CAE patients perform worse in cognitive scales than HCS with comparable intelligent quotient (IQ) scores. Conclusion Cognitive and psychiatric impairments in typical CAE patients appear multifactorial in origin with epilepsy-related factors including the duration of epilepsy and interictal spike load (IISL).

Background: Early detection of neuropsychological changes in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) is essential to improve their quality of life. Aim of the Work: To assess neurological and psychological disorders in children with sickle cell disease (SCD) using multimodal approach through clinical, laboratory, neuroimaging and neurophysiological studies in a trial to detect etiological risk factors. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Place and Duration of Study: Sample: Department of Pediatric (Hematology Unit) and Department of Neurology, Tanta University Hospital Egypt, between April 2016 and April 2018. Methodology: This study was conducted on 50 children (27 male and 23 female; age range 2-18 years) with SCD and 25 healthy children matched age and sex. All subjects were subjected to full history taking, neurologic examination using pediatric neurological sheet, laboratory investigations, neuroimaging including: CT and /or MRI, MRA and/or CT angiography, also MR, EEG and Stanford-Binet Intelligence scales-Fifth Edition. Results: Most of patients presented with headache 66%, cognitive decline 48%, seizures 28%, and visual affection 24%. Less common presentations were, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke 6% and 4% respectively. SCD children showed many abnormalities on neurological examination and on different modalities of MR imaging on the brain with positive correlation (X2=7.641, p-value <0.001*, r=0.248) with many risk factors. Prophylactic blood transfusion in SCD patients with abnormal TCD had a role in reducing the incidence of stroke. Conclusion: Children with SCD were presented with variable neuropsychological disturbance that correlated with the brain imaging.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Receptive and expressive vocabulary in adult and adolescent males with fragile X syndrome (FXS) have been shown as significantly lower than their chronological age; however, receptive vocabulary has been considered a strength relative to mental age. This has not been formally examined, however, and data are needed to compare receptive vocabulary with other language skills and with mental age in individuals with FXS. This is especially important as vocabulary measures are sometimes used as a proxy to estimate language ability. Methods This preliminary study examined receptive vocabulary, global language, and cognitive skills in 42 adults (33 males and 9 females) with FXS as a portion of the baseline evaluation prior to randomization in a clinical trial of ampakine CX516. The battery of standardized tests addressed receptive vocabulary with the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Third Edition (PPVT-III), receptive and expressive language (termed henceforth as global language) via the Preschool Language Scale, Fourth Edition or the Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals, Third Edition, and non-verbal cognition via the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales, Fourth Edition (SB-IV). Results Results showed (1) significantly higher receptive vocabulary than global language, (2) significantly better receptive vocabulary than non-verbal cognition, (3) equivalent non-verbal cognition and global language, and (4) severity of autism symptomatology was not correlated to receptive vocabulary or global language once non-verbal cognition was removed as factor. The scores from the PPVT-III did not represent the global language skills in our sample of adults with FXS. Conclusions Findings from this investigation strongly suggest that the PPVT-III should not be used as a screening tool for language levels or cognitive function in clinical studies since the scores from the PPVT-III were not representative of global language or non-verbal cognitive skills in adults with intellectual disabilities. This finding is critical in order to understand how to evaluate, as well as to treat, language in individuals with FXS. Development of efficient and appropriate tools to measure language, cognition, and behavior in individuals with FXS is essential.

Abstract:

This study aims at shedding light on the role and activity of women in trade in Makkah and Medina in the early of Islam. It should be noted that the follower, reader and researcher in the affairs of Islamic studies in general, and historical studies in particular, find in the political system and Islamic law at the time, It stands against the aspirations of Arab Muslim women and prevents them from moving forward towards self-realization, and in the course of trade or any other activity. On the contrary, we found through this study there is great support by those who are responsible for the affairs of the emerging Islamic state at the time, Same and me Its role and ability to participate effectively in society. Thus, we note previously through research and study and careful reading of the historical sources and historical jurisprudence, in which historians cited many accounts of the role of Arab Muslim women and their active participation in the commercial activity in Mecca and Medina, and despite the low participation of women in trade, In the society, through the competition with men and in a difficult field, where we find the hardship of travel and travel between the markets and stand with the item with them, and has the ability to practice the sale and purchase, as well as speculation with money with men, and they were traveling to markets to bring the most Among the people, and thus managed to Arab Muslim women to match men, and note some of them have supported their husbands in meeting the requirements of daily life and provide a good living in a difficult and harsh environment, and historians have written in their writings the emergence of markets for women in Medina, Al-Shattaab (may Allaah be pleased with him) used Al-Shifa 'bint Abdullah on these markets as an accountant to monitor what is going on in them, and it was her duty to monitor the scales and scales so that there would be no cheating. The most important findings of the study: • The study showed the role of women and they play all the vital roles and participation of their Muslim brothers and are the cause of the rise of civilizational society, through its use as a worker responsible for the market and highlighting its role and ability to perform the tasks entrusted to it in the best picture. • The location of the Arabian Peninsula, which mediates the ancient world and opens up to Yemen, Iraq, Persia, Syria and Egypt, and at the same time overlooking the waters of the Shatt al-Arab, the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Aden, has had a significant impact on the revitalization of trade.
