Further evidence of complex motor dysfunction in drug naïve children with autism using automatic motion analysis of gait / Maria NOBILE in Autism, 15-3 (May 2011)

The children with AD showed a stiffer gait in which the usual fluidity of walking was lost, trunk postural abnormalities, highly significant difficulties to maintain a straight line and a marked loss of smoothness (increase of jerk index), compared to the healthy controls. As a whole, these data suggest a complex motor dysfunction involving both the cortical and the subcortical area or, maybe, a possible deficit in the integration of sensory-motor information within motor networks (i.e., anomalous connections within the fronto-cerebello-thalamo-frontal network). Although the underlying neural structures involved remain to be better defined, these data may contribute to highlighting the central role of motor impairment in autism and suggest the usefulness of taking into account motor difficulties when developing new diagnostic and rehabilitation programs.

Understanding feeding problems in autistic children: Exploring the interplay between internalizing symptoms and sensory features / Alessandro CRIPPA in Autism, 26-8 (November 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 26-8 (November 2022) . - p.2165-2174 Titre : Understanding feeding problems in autistic children: Exploring the interplay between internalizing symptoms and sensory features Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Alessandro CRIPPA, Auteur ; Paola COLOMBO, Auteur ; Valentina DE COSMI, Auteur ; Alessandra MAZZOCCHI, Auteur ; Silvia SCAGLIONI, Auteur ; Giulia Carla Immacolata SPOLIDORO, Auteur ; Silvia BETTOCCHI, Auteur ; Veronica D'ORIA, Auteur ; Nicole VIGANO, Auteur ; Elisa MANI, Auteur ; Massimo MOLTENI, Auteur ; Carlo AGOSTONI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2165-2174 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Child  Humans  Autistic Disorder  Autism Spectrum Disorder  Feeding Behavior  autism spectrum disorder  feeding problems  internalizing problems  mealtime behaviors  preschool  sensory profile Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study adds to a growing body of research documenting feeding problems in autistic children. Our results indicate that children aged 1.5-5 years with feeding problems may present with elevated internalizing difficulties and alterations in sensory processing when compared to same-age children without feeding problems. Our study also proposes that sensory processing may be an important, mediating factor in the relationship between autism features and feeding problems. The present work suggests, therefore, that implementers should thoroughly consider the sensory profile of autistic children prior to intervening on feeding behaviors. In particular, based on these preliminary findings, feeding interventions could benefit from environments designed to support children who can find them noisy and overwhelming.
