Gene Discovery In Nonsyndromic Cleft Lip With Or Without Cleft Palate
<p><strong> </strong></p> <p> <p>Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCLP), a common, complex orofacial birth defect that affects approximately 4,000 newborns each year in the United States, is caused by both genetic and environmental factors. Orofacial clefts affect the mouth and …

Timing of alveolar cleft bone grafting in maxillary alveolar cleft defects
… to identify the best time for secondary alveolar cleft bone grafting, including chronological age, skeletal age, and dental age. However, few studies have employed objective methods of assessment that would permit statistical analysis. Fifty-nine patients with clefts of the alveolus who acquired …

Mathematical models for interendothelial cleft
… by Fu et al. (1994) for the interendothelial cleft to include multiple junction strands in the cleft and an interface between the surface glycocalyx layer and the cleft entrance; Previous experimental studies revealed that the endothelial surface glycocalyx might carry negative charges. To …

Subjective and objective aspects on living with a cleft. A study focused on the isolated cleft palate and the total bilateral cleft lip and palate.
… life aspects in individuals treated for isolated cleft palate (iCP) or total bilateral cleft lip and palate (BCLP). Furthermore, to study risks of having other birth defects in relation to the length of the iCP. For the BCLP, dental conditions and treatment results were evaluated. Finally, …

Treatment profile for cleft lip and palate
… one child in 600 live births is born with a cleft of lip, palate, or both structures. These deformities have a profound emotional effect both on parents and child and also seriously compromise physical and psychological wellbeing of the child affected with the deformity. Treatment procedures …

SPEECH DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN WITH CLEFT LIP AND PALATE
… and phonological development of children with cleft palate and cleft lip and palate from pre-speech to the age of 4;6. The aim of the project was to investigate the extent to which the cleft palate condition affects the nature and chronology of phonetic and phonological development. The …

Tearing a cleft in the continuous surface of reality
My thesis investigates representation and manipulation of spatial conditions intrinsically linked to the visual perception of materials and surfaces. Trying to develop architecture from visual relationships between materials, light, and the eye has required that I circumvent the objective view …

Early Academic Performance in Children with Cleft Lip and/or Palate.
… speech and language deficits in children with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP). For some children, the deficits during kindergarten diminish as they begin school while some children continue to show delays. The purpose of this study was to determine if a relationship exists between speech and …

A retrospective longitudinal analysis of phonetic and phonological cleft palate speech characteristics
Longitudinal studies of cleft palate speech (CPS) are rare in number. Most studies focus on phonetic characteristics of speakers with repaired cleft palate.Only few include phonological analysis of CPS. This dissertation was a retrospective, longitudinal analysis of the phonetic and phonological …

Acoustic-phonetic analysis of the prespeech vocalizations of babies with cleft palate
… the prespeech vocalizations of babies with cleft palate. Because prespeech vocalizations appear to play an important role in the acquisition of language, it is vital to have a means of identifying these vocalizations beyond the phonemic inventory which omits potentially important vocal …

Fzd6, Matn2 and Slc25A32, Possible Candidate Genes In Nonsyndromic Cleft Lip and Palate
<p>Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCLP) is a common birth defect with a multifactorial etiology. Despite decades of research, the genetic underpinnings of NSCLP still remain largely unexplained. A genome wide association study (GWAS) of a large NSCLP African American family …

Genetic Pathway Analysis of Abnormal Facial Development In Nonsyndromic Cleft Lip and Palate
<p>Nonsyndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCLP) is the most common craniofacial birth defect resulting from incomplete fusion of the facial prominences during development, which leaves a gap in the lip, primary palate and/or the secondary palate. NSCLP affects 135,000 NSCLP newborns …

Fluorescence labeling and computational analysis of the strut of myosin's 50 kDa cleft.
… constrained opening versus closing of the 50 kDa cleft appeared to induce opposite directions of movement in the lever arm. A sequence called the "strut" which traverses the 50 kDa cleft and may play an important role in positioning the actomyosin binding interface during actin binding is thought …
