    Summary: "As many as one in four children experiences problems with reading. Dyslexia, the most common learning disability leads to well-documented negative effects on school and, ultimately, adult success. Therefore, it is critical that school professionals provide early and effective assessment and intervention. This volume equips practitioners with in-depth understanding of the disorder and a wealth of practical information for meeting student needs." "As the duties of school psychologists and related education professionals become more complex, recognizing and providing services for students with learning disorders has become progressively more demanding. Identifying, Assessing, and Treating Dyslexia at School offers practitioners an accessible and easy-to-read reference that they will use for years to come."--BOOK JACKET.

    Described herein are three patients over the age of 50 years who had cellulitis of the neck and the upper portion of the chest, associated with Hemophilus influenzae type B bacteremia and respiratory tract infection--particularly that of the upper airway. Only one of the patients with cellulitis had the classic bluish-purple hue commonly seen in children affected with this syndrome. In the other two, the H. influenzae type B cellulitis could not be distinguished clinically from the more common group A streptococcal or staphylococcal cellulitis. Since the antibiotics employed in treating patients with infection due to the latter two organisms differ significantly from those used to treat patients with H. influenzae type B infection, the possibility of disease due to H. influenzae type B must be considered in any adult or child in whom cellulitis of the neck, chest and possibly face is associated with a respiratory tract infection, especially of the upper airway.
