A Core Outcome Set is a standard set of outcomes that we can collect for all children in the UK with #SSD. This allows us to evaluate children's progress in a consistent way and then find out which interventions work best for which children.

Good news! The @misltoessd.bsky.social team have published a Core Outcome Set for children with #SSD attending Speech and Language Therapy in the UK (and hopefully beyond).

Prof Angela Morgan led team calling to better differentiate speech vs language in genetics. Clearer terms = better diagnosis & care. With input from Prof Adam Vogel, our CSO, advancing communication science. In @ejhg-journal.bsky.social 🧪🧠📈 www.nature.com/articles/s41... #bskySPEECHIES

Publication highlights of the paper "Speech and language classification in the human phenotype ontology (HPO)". The right hand side features a photo of children undergoing speech therapy.

Key findings:
Speech & language difficulties often co-occur, but are distinct abilities.
- Speech: perception & motor production of sounds
- Language: understanding & producing messages (spoken/written)

Current classification systems (e.g. HPO) has overlapping and inconsistent speech & language categories.

Key findings:
Researchers proposed a simplified and revised classification framework that distinctly separates speech & language domains and their subtypes.

This framework will improve:
- Precision in diagnosis & phenotyping
- Targeted therapies for neurogenetic communcation disorders
- Data-driven discovery from medical records worldwide

To read full paper, check out link in caption.

Paper is published in European Journal of Human Genetics.

Author affiliations include Berlin Institute of Health, Murdoch Children's Research Institute, University of Melbourne, The Jackson Laboratory and University of Sheffield.
