BUITELAAR, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.44-54 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Growth  Head circumference  Height  Weight  Endophenotype Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The aims of the current study were to examine whether early growth abnormalities are (a) comparable in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and other childhood psychiatric disorders, and (b) specific to the brain or generalized to the whole body. Head circumference, height, and weight were measured during the first 19 months of life in 129 children with ASD and 59 children with non-ASD psychiatric disorders. Both groups showed comparable abnormal patterns of growth compared to population norms, especially regarding height and head circumference in relation to height. Thus abnormal growth appears to be related to psychiatric disorders in general and is mainly expressed as an accelerated growth of height not matched by an increase in weight or head circumference.

The cognitive and neural correlates of psychopathy and especially callous–unemotional traits in youths: A systematic review of the evidence / Pierre C. M. HERPERS in Development and Psychopathology, 26-1 (February 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 26-1 (February 2014) . - p.245-273 Titre : The cognitive and neural correlates of psychopathy and especially callous–unemotional traits in youths: A systematic review of the evidence Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Pierre C. M. HERPERS, Auteur ; Floor E. SCHEEPERS, Auteur ; Daniëlle M. A. BONS, Auteur ; Jan K. BUITELAAR, Auteur ; Nanda N. ROMMELSE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.245-273 Langues : Français (fre) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : It is unclear whether the concepts and findings of the underlying neurobiology of adult psychopathy apply to youths as well. If so, a life span approach to treatment should be taken. Because youths’ brains are still developing, interventions at an early age may be far more effective in the long run. The aim of this systematic review is to examine whether the neurocognitive and neurobiological factors that underlie juvenile psychopathy, and specifically callous–unemotional (CU) traits, are similar to those underlying adult psychopathy. The results show that youths with CU traits show lower levels of prosocial reasoning, lower emotional responsivity, and decreased harm avoidance. Brain imaging studies in youths with CU traits are still rare. Available studies suggest specific neural correlates, such as a reduced response of the amygdala and a weaker functional connectivity between the amygdala and the ventromedial prefrontal cortex. These findings are largely in line with existing theories of adult psychopathy, such as the dual-hormone serotonergic hypothesis and the integrated emotions systems theory. We recommend that future studies investigate the role of oxytocin, invest in the study of neural mechanisms, and study the precursors, risk factors, and correlates of CU traits in early infancy and in longitudinal designs.
