Presentation
None of the patients presented signs of articulatory or bucofacial praxis disorder. The subjects who were able to speak did not present any phonological difficulty of the inaccurate type. [scielo.br]
In fact, in the present study, two children with SLI showed no deficits in musical abilities. [frontiersin.org]
Equipping a child for success at ages three and four will lead to positive experiences in kindergarten -- and the signs of SLI are present by age three. [merrill.ku.edu]
Typical errors that a 5-year-old child with SLI would make include dropping the “s” from the end of present-tense verbs, dropping past tense, and asking questions without the usual “be” or “do” verbs. [speechkidsacademy.com]
However, these studies did not test the full range of mass and count nouns as presented in Table 1. [glossa-journal.org]
Respiratoric
- Pharyngitis
He pointed out that the result was varying degrees of paralysis of the lips, tongue, soft palate, and laryngeal and pharyngeal muscles (in other words, suprabulbar paresis). [scielo.br]
Gastrointestinal
- Gagging
Tongue movements (protrusion, lateral and upward movements) were examined, and the presence of abnormal gag reflex, brisk jaw jerk and automatic-voluntary dissociation of facial movements was specifically noted. [scielo.br]
- Choking
Parents or guardians were specifically questioned about a past or present history of drooling, choking, feeding difficulties in the neonatal period, swallowing and sucking problems, and current difficulty of whistling or blowing. [scielo.br]
Ears
- Normal Hearing
Although it is always important to rule out hearing problems as a source of language difficulties — including fluctuating hearing loss such as that associated with repeated ear infections — most children with SLI have normal hearing. [gemmlearning.com]

Inclusion criteria were: children should be at least 4 years of age; primary complaint of language delay; normal neurological examination; normal hearing by audiometry; intelligence quotient (IQ) >70; and an informed consent signed by parents or guardians [scielo.br]
Introduction Children with Specific Language Impairment (SLI) are characterized by persistent expressive and receptive language difficulties with normal intelligence, normal hearing, and the absence of apparent neurological damages. [frontiersin.org]
Psychiatrical
- Social Isolation
isolation and psychiatric disorder. [34] However, most studies focused on children with severe problems, where comprehension as well as expressive language was affected. [en.wikipedia.org]
Treatment
Treatment research: NIDCD-funded researchers are re-imagining treatment designs and offering more rigorous tests of language treatment options. [nidcd.nih.gov]
The book highlights important research strategies in the quest to find the cause of SLI and to develop methods of prevention and treatment. [muse.jhu.edu]

During the evaluation, the therapist also may try out different tactics to figure out how your child responds to treatment. Once the therapist makes a diagnosis, she’ll work closely with you to develop an effective treatment plan. [understood.org]
Prognosis
Prognosis The prognosis for children with SLI depends very heavily on the type and severity of the language problem experienced. Many language problems can be largely overcome, although some difficulties usually persist. [encyclopedia.com]
The sooner there is a diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and education, the better the prognosis for social adaptation of individuals with SLI is. [scielo.br]
The prognosis for improvement or spontaneous “outgrowing” of SLI is much more guarded than for SSD, and SLI is more likely to persist into adulthood. [researchfeatures.com]
Understanding the prognosis, checklist, statistics, and FOXP2-related speech and language disorder is a condition that affects the development of speech and language starting in early childhood. [cjrwholesale.com]
Etiology
Very little is known about the cause or origin (referred to as etiology) of specific language impairment, though evidence is growing that the underlying condition may be a form of brain abnormality, not obvious with existing diagnostic technologies: SLI [psychology.jrank.org]
While it is clear that genetic factors play a role in the etiology of SLI (Bishop, 2002 ), there is little understanding of the neurobiological phenotype. [academic.oup.com]

Epidemiology
When the SLI exclusionary criteria were evolving, the epidemiology of otitis media had not been conducted. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]
Introduction Epidemiological studies of language impairment (LI) have reported high prevalence among children aged 5–6 years ( Beitchman et al., 1986 ; Tomblin et al., 1997 ; Norbury et al., 2016 ). [frontiersin.org]
Late language emergence at 24 months: an epidemiological study of prevalence, predictors, and covariates. Journal of Speech Language and Hearing Research, 50, 1562-1592. [fhi.no]
Prevalence [ edit ] Epidemiological surveys, in the US [25] and Canada, [26] estimated the prevalence of SLI in five-year-olds at around 7%. [en.wikipedia.org]
Although there are not epidemiological researchers, especially in the Brazilian population, several studies have pointed to a higher prevalence of language impairments in boys 4,5. [scielo.br]
Pathophysiology
Thus, the identification that there is a delay in the beginning of speech (this should start to maximum 18 months), whether it is confirmed only as chronological changes or configure a disorder with pathophysiological signs, has an essential role in therapeutic [scielo.br]
Prevention
The book highlights important research strategies in the quest to find the cause of SLI and to develop methods of prevention and treatment. [muse.jhu.edu]
Prevention There is no known way to prevent SLI. Parental concerns Children with SLI are often at risk for reduced performance in other areas of their lives because of their difficulty in mastering language. [encyclopedia.com]

Some researchers have even asserted that in the final analysis, FOXP2 may not be a “language gene”, but rather a gene in which defects can cause motor disorders serious enough to prevent the use of language. [thebrain.mcgill.ca]
