Glycemic Regulation and Renal Function by Heavy Metal Exposure: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis on Cement Plant Workers

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavy metal exposure is known to have various effects on renal function and blood glucose regulation. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of cement dust and some metal (cadmium, manganese, nickel, and zinc) exposure on blood glucose and renal function parameters in male cement plant workers.

Failure to replicate effects of parent‐delivered early language intervention: Evidence from a randomised controlled trial with implications for universal language intervention

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parent‐led, preschool language interventions may help to mitigate the risk of poor language and literacy outcomes associated with lower socioeconomic status. This study builds on two previous evaluations of a parent‐led early language teaching programme, which demonstrated mixed findings.

Early joint attention abilities measured by the ADOS‐2 predict subsequent expressive language development in minimally verbal autistic children

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Most preschool autistic children exhibit substantial language delays, yet only ∼25% remain minimally verbal (MV) throughout life. Developing expressive language is crucial for improving outcomes. This study examined early predictors of later expressive language growth in MV preschool autistic children.
