Solution-Focused Brief Therapy for Stuttering in the Public Schools: Children Solve Their Own Stuttering Problems in This Case Study
CONCLUSIONS: The participants engaged in conversations with the SLP, teachers, peers, and family members. They documented conversations, reflections, performance scales, and personal goals in their journals. During therapy sessions, the children clarified real-life goals and tried out techniques for managing their stuttering difficulties. In addition, they completed the Clinical Use of Self-Reports to assess their communication values, successes, and challenges.SUPPLEMENTAL MATERIAL: https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.23706363.PMID:37532244 | DOI:10.1044/2023_LSHSS-22-00172 (Source: Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools)

Self-Stigma of Stuttering: Implications for Communicative Participation and Mental Health
CONCLUSIONS: Accounting for self-stigma in the assessment and treatment of individuals who stutter may identify and ultimately reduce environmental and personal barriers to communicative functioning and well-being in people who stutter. The self-stigma terminology and model described in this study will help practitioners, researchers, and the public better understand the process of self-stigma and how it may be associated with adverse outcomes experienced by people who stutter.PMID:37524109 | DOI:10.1044/2023_JSLHR-23-00098 (Source: Journal of speech, language, and hearing research : JSLHR)

The genitourinary impacts of electronic cigarette use: a systematic review of the literature
ConclusionsE-cig use was associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer, increased exposure to carcinogenic compounds, mixed evidence on CKD, increased risk of reproductive disorders and burns to the GU system. Further studies are needed to understand long-term GU effects. (Source: World Journal of Urology)

A systematic approach to improve downstream single-cell analysis for the DEPArray ™ technology
This study aimed to (1) determine appropriate conditions for obtaining informative profiles utilizing a dilution series, and (2) test the outcome on single cells using the DEPArray™ technology. Four routinely applied forensic STR kits were compared by using three different amplification volumes and DNA dilutions down to 3.0 pg, while two well-performing kits were used for single/pooled leucocyte and sperm cell genotyping. Besides reduced costs, the results demonstrate that a 50%-75% PCR volume reduction was beneficial for peak height evaluation. However, this was counteracted by an increased artifact generation in dilute...

Repetitive Negative Thinking in Adolescents Who Stutter
This study explored RNT in older school-age children and adolescents who stutter to quantify the relationship between RNT and self-reported anxiety characteristics. An additional aim was to describe how individual differences in an adolescent's goal when speaking influences the frequency they engage in RNT.METHOD: Ninety-nine children and adolescents who stutter aged 9-18 years completed a measurement of the frequency/severity of RNT, a screener of anxiety characteristics, and a measure of adverse impact related to stuttering. Children aged 10 years and above also answered questions about their goal when speaking.RESULTS: ...

Decontextualized Utterances Contain More Typical and Stuttering-Like Disfluencies in Preschoolers Who Do and Do Not Stutter
CONCLUSIONS: The increased working memory demands associated with decontextualized language contribute to increased language planning effort. This leads to increased TD in CWS and CWNS. Under a multifactorial dynamic model of stuttering, the increased language demands may also contribute to increased stuttering in CWS due to instabilities in their speech motor systems.PMID:37486762 | DOI:10.1044/2023_JSLHR-23-00173 (Source: Journal of speech, language, and hearing research : JSLHR)
