Diagnosis of autism was confirmed using gold standard measures. Results show that the children in the treatment group (n = 17) who received 30 sessions of the occupational therapy intervention scored significantly higher (p = 0.003, d = 1.2) on Goal Attainment Scales (primary outcome), and also scored significantly better on measures of caregiver assistance in self-care (p = 0.008 d = 0.9) and socialization (p = 0.04, d = 0.7) than the Usual Care control group (n = 15). The study shows high rigor in its measurement of treatment fidelity and use of a manualized protocol, and provides support for the use of this intervention for children with autism. Findings are discussed in terms of their implications for practice and future research.

Are Developmental Monitoring and Screening Better Together for Early Autism Identification Across Race and Ethnic Groups? / Brian D. BARGER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-1 (January 2022)

Analyses showed that conjoint monitoring and screening and monitoring alone, but not screening alone, was associated with early identified ASD cases across race groups. Caution is warranted as interpreting NSCH monitoring and screening items solely for identification purposes is inaccurate in many cases. More research on monitoring with screening is needed.

Autonomic Dysregulation During Sensory Stimulation in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Roseann C. SCHAAF in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-2 (February 2015)

Multivariate comparisons revealed significant differences between groups in the respiratory sinus arrhythmia (parasympathetic measure) vector of means across sensory stimuli (p = 0.02) and in change from domain to domain (p = 0.01). Sympathetic activity, measured by pre-ejection period, did not differ significantly between groups, although it was higher in ASD participants. Findings suggest that participants with ASD demonstrated a different pattern of parasympathetic activity during sensory stimulation. Findings are discussed in relation to the biological mechanisms of sensory processing in autism, insight into the autism phenotype, and the utility of ANS activity as an outcomes marker.

Creating the Global Criminal Justice Survey: A Questionnaire Designed to Gather Perspectives from the Autism Community and Criminal Justice Professionals / Abigail M. A. LOVE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-4 (April 2024)

To further understanding, a comprehensive stakeholder questionnaire was created. Aspects of reliability and validity including evidence for test content and internal structure were gathered using expert reviews, cognitive interviewing, pilot data collection, and a larger data collection effort (N = 1618). Data was gathered from the autism community through perspectives of parents/caregivers as well as from self-reported autistic adults. Criminal justice professionals included law enforcement officers, corrections professionals, probation and parole officers, forensic psychologists and legal professionals. The scale development process was detailed in order to sufficiently document the initial psychometric evidence and share the steps taken to gain diverse stakeholder input. This study is a critical first step in generating further information to facilitate policy and program development with wide applicability.

Emergency department use among young adult Medicare beneficiaries with autism and intellectual disabilities / Teal W. BENEVIDES in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 70 (February 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 70 (February 2020) . - p.101470 Titre : Emergency department use among young adult Medicare beneficiaries with autism and intellectual disabilities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Teal W.

GRAVES, Auteur ; Veronica SIKKA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.101470 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Emergency department  Utilization  Autism spectrum disorder  Medicare  Young adult  Intellectual disability  Health services Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Individuals on the autism spectrum are at greater risk for a variety of co-occurring psychiatric and medical conditions, which could result in greater emergency department (ED) use. We aimed to identify rates of ED utilization among transition-age young adults with autism and examine predictors of utilization in a U.S. national data source. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of Centers for Medicare and Medicaid 2010 Limited Data Set claims from Inpatient and Outpatient files. Medicare beneficiaries aged 18–25 years from three groups were included: autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and no intellectual disability (ID), ASD and ID, and ID-only. Primary outcomes were annual ED visit counts and dichotomous presence of ED visit in claim year. Results Between 43–54% of adults with ASD had an ED visit in the past claim year. Significant predictors of greater ED utilization among adults with ASD included: intellectual disability (IRR=1.19, 95%CI:1.09–1.30), psychiatric utilization in the claim year (IRR=1.42, 95%CI:1.28–1.57), and greater comorbidities as assessed with ACG® risk score (IRR=1.18, 95%CI:1.15–1.20). Minority status was associated with less ED utilization among adults with ASD (IRR=0.86, 95%CI:0.78–0.94). Adults with ASD had significantly fewer annual ED visits than adults with ID-only after controlling for other variables. Conclusions Prevention efforts to reduce ED utilization, especially for those with ID and ASD with co-occurring psychiatric conditions, is warranted. Primary care providers and case managers should develop care plans to reduce the likelihood for emergency psychiatric utilization and ensure alternative care pathways. ED clinicians may require additional training to address the needs of this population when they present to the ED in crisis.
