Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 41-4 (April 2011) . - p.465-474 Titre : Knowledge and Attitude of General Practitioners Regarding Autism in Karachi, Pakistan Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mohammad Hossein RAHBAR, Auteur ; Khalid IBRAHIM, Auteur ; Parisa ASSASSI, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.465-474 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Knowledge  General practitioner  Pakistan Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : General practitioners (GPs) could have an important role in early diagnosis of autism. There have been no studies evaluating the knowledge of GPs regarding autism in Pakistan. We aimed to fill that gap by assessing knowledge and attitude of GPs in Karachi regarding autism. We conducted a cross-sectional survey of 348 GPs; only 148 (44.6%) had heard of “autism.” Our results show that GPs less than 30 years of age and those who obtained their Medical Degree in the last 5 years are more likely to report knowledge about autism: OR = 3.0; 95% CI: 1.71, 5.31, and OR = 2.56; 95% CI: 1.48, 4.42, respectively. In addition, among those reporting knowledge about autism, many held misconceptions regarding the signs and symptoms and etiology.

Maternal and Paternal Age are Jointly Associated with Childhood Autism in Jamaica / Mohammad Hossein RAHBAR in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 42-9 (September 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 42-9 (September 2012) . - p.1928-1938 Titre : Maternal and Paternal Age are Jointly Associated with Childhood Autism in Jamaica Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mohammad Hossein RAHBAR, Auteur ; Maureen SAMMS-VAUGHAN, Auteur ; Katherine A.

GROVE, Auteur ; Compton BEECHER, Auteur ; Kari BLOOM, Auteur ; Eric BOERWINKLE, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.1928-1938 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Maternal age  Paternal age  Multivariate General Linear Models  Multicollinearity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Several studies have reported maternal and paternal age as risk factors for having a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), yet the results remain inconsistent. We used data for 68 age- and sex-matched case–control pairs collected from Jamaica. Using Multivariate General Linear Models (MGLM) and controlling for parity, gestational age, and parental education, we found a significant (p < 0.0001) joint effect of parental ages on having children with ASD indicating an adjusted mean paternal age difference between cases and controls of [5.9 years; 95% CI (2.6, 9.1)] and a difference for maternal age of [6.5 years; 95% CI (4.0, 8.9)]. To avoid multicollinearity in logistic regression, we recommend joint modeling of parental ages as a vector of outcome variables using MGLM.

SEED uses a case–control design with population-based ascertainment of children aged 2–5 years with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and children in two control groups—one from the general population and one with non-ASD developmental problems. Data from parent-completed questionnaires, interviews, clinical evaluations, biospecimen sampling, and medical record abstraction focus on the prenatal and early postnatal periods. SEED is a valuable resource for testing hypotheses regarding ASD characteristics and causes.
