Item ratings were aggregated into scores on syndromes; Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-oriented scales; a Stress Problems scale; and Internalizing, Externalizing, and Total Problems scales. Effect sizes for scale score differences among the 24 societies ranged from small to medium (3-12%). Although societies differed greatly in language, culture, and other characteristics, Total Problems scores for 18 of the 24 societies were within 7.1 points of the omnicultural mean of 33.3 (on a scale of 0-198). Gender and age differences, as well as gender and age interactions with society, were all very small (effect sizes < 1%). Across all pairs of societies, correlations between mean item ratings averaged .78, and correlations between internal consistency alphas for the scales averaged .92, indicating that the rank orders of mean item ratings and internal consistencies of scales were very similar across diverse societies.

Investigating the impact of probiotic on neurological outcomes in Rett syndrome: A randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled pilot study / Chia-Jui HSU ; Yen-Tzu WU ; Hsu-Feng CHU ; Jui-Hsiang LIN ; Hsin-Pei WANG ; Su-Ching HU ; Ying-Chieh TSAI ; Wen-Che TSAI ; Wang-Tso LEE in Autism, 28-9 (September 2024)

We conducted a randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled trial on Rett syndrome with MECP2 mutation aged between 1 and 50 years in Taiwan. In this pilot study, twice-daily L. plantarum PS128 or placebo was administered for 16 weeks. In addition to feasibility, we also assessed the changes utilizing the Mullen Scales of Early Learning. In total, 36 participants were finally randomized into L. plantarum PS128 (n = 18) or placebo (n = 18) groups. At the end of intervention, the retention rates were 100% for L. plantarum PS128 and 94.44% for placebo, with withdrawal rates of 5.56% for the placebo group. Both groups tolerated well, except for one L. plantarum PS128 participant who reported loose stool. The probiotic group showed a change of 2.19+3.76, while the placebo group had 0.85+5.09 (p = 0.051) in the total age-equivalent scores of Mullen Scales of Early Learning. There was a significant difference in the change of the total score on the Burke-Fahn-Marsden Movement Scale between probiotc group and placebo group ( 12.19+12.12 vs 4.59+4.20, p = 0.020). In leg dystonia, the probiotic group exhibited a change of 4.11+5.11 compared with 0.38+1.50 in the placebo group (p = 0.008). Our findings affirm the feasibility of L. plantarum PS128 in Rett syndrome. Future clinical trials are mandatory to further explore its long-term impact on Rett syndrome. Lay abstract Rett syndrome often involves gastrointestinal symptoms and gut microbiota imbalances. We conducted a study to explore the feasibility of probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum PS128 and the impact on neurological functions in Rett syndrome. The results of our investigation demonstrated that the supplementation of probiotic L. plantarum PS128 was feasible and well tolerated, with 100% retention rate and 0% withdrawal rate. In addition, there was only one participant who had loose stool after taking L. plantarum PS128. Further, there was a tendency to enhance overall cognitive developmental level, as assessed using Mullen Scales of Early Learning. In addition, it significantly improved dystonia, as assessed using the Burke-Fahn-Marsden Movement Scale, in comparison with the placebo group. This study provides a strong foundation for future research and clinical trials exploring the potential of L. plantarum PS128 probiotics as a complementary therapy for individuals with Rett syndrome.

Motor imitation deficits and altered cortical activation in preschool-aged children with autism spectrum disorder: A task-based fNIRS study / Yan-Ci LIU in Research in Autism, 132 (April 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 132 (April 2026) . - 202841 Titre : Motor imitation deficits and altered cortical activation in preschool-aged children with autism spectrum disorder: A task-based fNIRS study Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yan-Ci LIU, Auteur ; Chia-Mei CHEN, Auteur ; Chia-Wei LIN, Auteur ; Jung-Chi CHANG, Auteur ; Pou-Leng CHEONG, Auteur ; Yen-Tzu WU, Auteur ; Chuen-Hung CHIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : 202841 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Preschool  Motor Imitation  Interpersonal Synchrony  Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS)  Cortical Activation Résumé : Background Motor imitation and interpersonal synchrony, essential for early social communication, are frequently impaired in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Few studies have examined task-related cortical activation underlying these skills in preschool-aged children with ASD. Methods Motor development, imitation performance, and cortical activation were compared between 15 preschoolers with ASD and 28 typically developing (TD) peers using a reach-and-clean-up imitation task under observation, self-paced execution, and interpersonal synchrony conditions. Motor assessments included the Peabody Developmental Motor Scales–Second Edition for gross and fine motor abilities, and the Movement Assessment Battery for Children–Second Edition for coordination skills. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) measured oxygenated hemoglobin responses in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), premotor cortex (PMC), and supplementary motor area (SMA). Results Children with ASD scored significantly lower in fine motor, balance, and imitation performance (all p < .05). fNIRS data showed greater right SMA activation across conditions in the ASD group, whereas reduced right PMC activation appeared specifically during the synchrony condition, yielding a significant Group × Condition interaction (p = .003). In TD children, higher PMC and SMA activation correlated with better motor performance and fewer imitation errors, whereas in ASD, increased activation was linked to poorer motor scores, suggesting inefficient neural recruitment. Conclusions Preschoolers with ASD showed distinct behavioral and neural patterns during motor imitation, particularly during socially contingent synchrony. These findings underscore early differences in motor–social integration and support the use of task-based fNIRS as a research tool for examining neural–behavioral processes. Longitudinal and intervention studies are needed to clarify developmental trajectories and neural plasticity.

Retention of autism spectrum disorder diagnosis: The role of co-occurring conditions in males and females / Yen-Tzu WU in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 25 (May 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 25 (May 2016) . - p.76-86 Titre : Retention of autism spectrum disorder diagnosis: The role of co-occurring conditions in males and females Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yen-Tzu WU, Auteur ; Matthew J.

KIRBY, Auteur ; Li-Ching LEE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.76-86 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Child sex  Diagnosis retention  Co-occurring conditions (CoCs) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined associations between ASD diagnosis retention and non-ASD co-occurring conditions (CoCs) by child sex. The sample included 7077 males and 1487 females who had an ASD diagnosis documented in their school or health records in a population-based ASD surveillance system for 8-year-old children. ASD diagnosis retention status was determined when an initial ASD diagnosis was not later ruled out by a community professional. We found that ASD diagnosis remains fairly stable, with only 9% of children who had an initial documented ASD diagnosis later being ruled-out. Although most of the associations between the ASD diagnosis retention status and CoCs are similar in both sexes, the co-occurrence of developmental diagnoses (e.g., intellectual disability or sensory integration disorder) was predictive of ASD diagnostic changes in males, whereas the co-occurrence of specific developmental (e.g., personal/social delay) and neurological diagnosis (e.g., epilepsy) was associated with ASD diagnostic change in females. More ASD-related evaluations and less ASD-related impairment were associated with later ASD rule outs in both sexes. Our findings highlight that CoCs can complicate the diagnostic picture and lead to an increased likelihood of ambiguity in ASD diagnosis. Using sensitive and appropriate measures in clinical practice is necessary for differential diagnosis, particularly when there are co-occurring developmental conditions.
