Dyslexia is a specific learning disorder that originates in the brain systems responsible for phonological processing, affecting domain of language, ability to symbolize, reading and writing. To date, studies point dyslexia as chronic disorder, however, when diagnosed early, multidisciplinary interventions capable providing better cognitive intellectual development and, consequently, improving ...

Key PointsDyslexia is a neurological disorder with a genetic origin, but the underlying biological and cognitive causes are still being investigated.This study compares the brain activation pattern while reading in Spanish, a semitransparent language, in three groups of children: typically developing readers, dyslexic readers and readers with functional monocular vision.Based on our results Dys...

BACKGROUND A number of cognitive deficits are associated with dyslexia. However, only a limited amount of research has been performed exploring a putative link between dyslexia and substance use. As substance use is thought to involve a cognitive component, it is possible that the pattern of substance use would be different for dyslexic participants, when compared to nondyslexic controls. Durin...

Prenatal insults, such as maternal stress, are associated with an increased neurodevelopmental disease risk and impact males significantly more than females, including increased rates of autism, mental retardation, stuttering, dyslexia, and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Sex differences in the placenta, which begin with sex chromosomes, are likely to produce sex-specific trans...

During brain development cells divide, differentiate and migrate to their assigned targets to form synapses and active cell assemblies. This sequence is controlled both by genetic programs and environmental factors. Alterations of this sequence by mutations or environmental insults leads to the formation of misconnected circuits endowed with a 'pre-symptomatic signature'. I propose here that ea...

Abstract Accurate and efficient early screening is important for providing effective intervention dyslexic readers. While family history often considered a contributing risk factor dyslexia, some have suggested that it could serve as proxy identification of dyslexia. We examined the classification accuracy measure dyslexia using an epidemiologic sample 398 children followed from age 5 through a...

A mixed-method approach identify problems according LINUS 2.0 construct, which developed by Special Education Division, Ministry Malaysia. Reading measu...

One might pose the question: since adults with dyslexia typically have problems with reading, writing and spelling, why nor simply measure those skills in order to identify the individuals who have dyslexia? The problems with this approach are (a) the differences in literacy skills between dyslexic and non-dyslexic persons are largely quantitative rather than qualitative, and (b) the developmen...
