Two-stage screening using the M-CHAT was conducted with 1,851 children attending the check-up. Final ASD diagnosis was confirmed at age ?3 years. Screening identified 20/51 children with ASD: 12/20 true positives were developmentally delayed, whereas 16/22 false negatives were high-functioning. Sensitivity was 0.476, specificity 0.986, positive predictive value 0.455, and likelihood ratio 33.4 for children with ASD. With a few modifications, M-CHAT screening successfully detected toddlers with ASD with and without developmental delay and is a promising screening tool to complement existing community surveillance.

Sex differences in cognitive and symptom profiles in children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders / Hirokazu KUMAZAKI in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 13-14 (May 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 13-14 (May 2015) . - p.1-7 Titre : Sex differences in cognitive and symptom profiles in children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Hirokazu KUMAZAKI, Auteur ; Taro MURAMATSU, Auteur ; Hirotaka KOSAKA, Auteur ; Takashi X. FUJISAWA, Auteur ; Kazuhiko IWATA, Auteur ; Akemi TOMODA, Auteur ; Kenji TSUCHIYA, Auteur ; Masaru MIMURA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1-7 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : High functioning autism spectrum disorders  Sex differences  Narrow age range  Before adolescence  CARS-TV  Taste, Smell, Touch Response and Use Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Although a small number of studies have investigated sex differences in the associated features of high-functioning autism spectrum disorders (HFASDs), they have failed to provide consistent findings. We sought to examine sex differences in 5–9-year-old females and males with HFASDs within a narrow range of ages before adolescence in order to identify the noticeable autistic profile of females compared to males. Using the Japanese version of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Third Edition (WISC-III) and the Childhood Autism Rating Scale-Tokyo Version (CARS-TV), 20 females with HFASDs were compared with 26 males with HFASDs. Although females and males with HFASDs share similar cognitive profiles in WISC-III, females demonstrated a different symptom profile from males in CARS-TV. Although the female subjects scored significantly lower than the male subjects on “Body Use,” “Object Use,” and “Activity Level,” female subjects scored significantly higher than males on “Taste, Smell, and Touch Response and Use” in the CARS-TV. This finding can be useful for the early identification of females with HFASDs who have typically been underdiagnosed. Future research should focus on elucidating the possible behavioral, neurological, and genetic links to these sex differences.

The association between social camouflage and mental health among autistic people in Japan and the UK: a cross-cultural study / Fumiyo OSHIMA in Molecular Autism, 15 (2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inMolecular Autism > 15 (2024) . - 1p. Titre : The association between social camouflage and mental health among autistic people in Japan and the UK: a cross-cultural study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Fumiyo OSHIMA, Auteur ; Toru TAKAHASHI, Auteur ; Masaki TAMURA, Auteur ; Siqing GUAN, Auteur ; Mikuko SETO, Auteur ; Laura HULL, Auteur ; William MANDY, Auteur ; Kenji TSUCHIYA, Auteur ; Eiji SHIMIZU, Auteur Article en page(s) : 1p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Male  Adult  Humans  Female  Autistic Disorder/diagnosis  Japan/epidemiology  Mental Health  Cross-Cultural Comparison  Cross-Sectional Studies  United Kingdom/epidemiology  Autistic adults  Cross-cultural study  Japan  Social camouflage  Uk Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: To examine the relationship between social camouflage and mental health in Japanese autistic adults and make an international comparison with a sample from the UK. METHODS: This study analysed secondary data of participants with a self-reported diagnosis of autism from Japan (N = 210; 123 men and 87 women) and the UK (N = 305; 181 women, 104, men, and 18 nonbinary). The relationships between the quadratic term of the Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire and mental health scales, including depression and anxiety, were assessed. RESULTS: The UK sample showed linear relationships, whereas the Japanese sample showed significant nonlinear relationships. The quadratic terms of the Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire slightly explained generalised anxiety (? = .168, p = .007), depression (? = .121, p = .045), and well-being (? = -?.127, p = .028). However, they did not explain the association between social anxiety and the Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire. LIMITATIONS: Participants had self-reported diagnoses, and while the autism-spectrum quotient provides a cut-off value for screening, it does not enable confirming diagnoses. Mean scores of the Japanese version of the Camouflaging Autistic Traits Questionnaire were lower as compared to the original CAT-Q, which implies that the social camouflage strategy types used by autistic people in Japan and the UK could differ. The cross-sectional design limits causal inferences. CONCLUSION: In the UK, more social camouflage was associated with poorer mental health scores, whereas too little or too much social camouflage was associated with a low mental health score in Japan. The Japanese population is seemingly less aware of and educated on autistic characteristics and considers 'average' behaviour a good thing. This could influence Japanese autistic people's social camouflage use, differing from that of autistic people in the UK. The differences in the relationship between social camouflage and mental health between Japan and the UK could be associated with national-level divergence regarding the culture of autism.
