This systematic overview highlights communication impairment as a defining feature of Rett syndrome, with expressive language consistently affected more severely than receptive language and social ability. Across the literature, most studies rely on caregiver‐reported measures, with relatively few employing direct or objective measurements of speech ...

The utility of the term ‘Rett‐like’ in relation to Rett syndrome: A systematic review
Our findings show that ‘Rett‐like’ generally describes females with developmental disability, typically with no period of regression. We establish that there is a broad genetic landscape encompassing this disorder. Clinical utility of ‘Rett‐like’ is limited, with inadequate evidence of validity and diagnostic use of ‘Rett‐like’.

Behavioural Diversity of Fishes: Concepts, Drivers and Its Role in Conservation and Management
ABSTRACT Human activity has altered nearly all ecosystems on Earth, contributing to substantial biodiversity loss across taxonomic, genetic and functional dimensions, from the intraspecific to the ecosystem scale. Yet some components of biodiversity remain hidden or underappreciated, including behavioural diversity.

Blocking protein quality control degradation by deleting the E3 ligases Ubr1 or San1 stabilizes many DHFR insertion and deletion variants that are otherwise partially unfolded. These hypomorphic variants regain folding at lower temperatures or upon methotrexate binding, revealing that PQC degradation can remove proteins that are still functionally ...

Convergent mutations underpin the repeated evolution of brown plumage in seabirds
Recent genetic data have provided crucial insights into the evolution of animal colour phenotypes, with the melanocortin‐1 receptor (MC1R) frequently implicated in dramatic colour shifts. However, the extent to which similar phenotypes are underpinned by convergent mutations at this locus remains unclear.

Word Associations in a Minoritised Language: The Case of Cymraeg (Welsh)
ABSTRACT As with many research strands in linguistics, word association (WA) literature is dominated by English language data. This paper (i) explores the extent to which methodologies developed to date are applicable to other languages—specifically, Welsh (Cymraeg)—and (ii) investigates what WA analysis can reveal about lexical organisation and ...
