A transcription map of the 6p22.3 reading disability locus identifying candidate genes

Quantitative trait locus for reading disability: correction.

In the news article "Can risky mergers save hospital-based research?" by Wade Roush (19 May, p. 968), the statement that University Hospitals of Cleveland rose from 20th in the rankings of teaching hospitals funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 1991 to 12th at present was incorrect. In fact, it was Case Western Reserve University (CWRU), with which University Hospitals of Clevel...

12 چکیده تفاوت های فردی، به عنوان خصوصیات روانشناختی غالب، باید در سطوح مختلف تدریس و یادگیری زبان کاملاً مورد ملاحظه قرار گیرند. از میان تاثیرگذارترین سازه های روانشناختی که منجر به تفاوت های فردی می شوند، می توان ازهوش چندگانه و منبع کنترل نام برد. هوش چندگانه با جنبه های متفاوتی از هوش سر و کار دارد که ممکن است هر شخص از آن برخوردار باشد. منبع کنترل، به عنوان مفهوم روانشناختی دیگر، به استن...

Five candidate genes for hamster cardiomyopathy did not map to the cardiomyopathy locus by FISH analysis.

The Syrian cardiomyopathic hamster (BIO14.6), that develops both muscular dystrophy and progressive cardiomyopathy, is widely used as an animal model of autosomal recessive cardiomyopathy mimicking human hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and five genes have been proposed as strong candidates for the cause of cardiomyopathy. We recently mapped the cardiomyopathy locus of the hamster to the centromeri...

Identifying subtypes of reading disability in the Spanish language.

This study was designed to examine the dyslexic subtypes in a transparent orthography (i.e., Spanish language). The subtyping procedure used comparison with chronological-age-matched and reading-level controls on reaction times (RTs) to high frequency words and to pseudowords. Using regression-based procedures, the authors identified 20 phonological and 48 surface dyslexics from a sample of 89 ...
