Diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorder in Toddlers Born Very Preterm: Estimated Prevalence and Usefulness of Screeners and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) / Julie VERMEIRSCH in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-5 (May 2021)

An additional 14.5% were classified as having a broader-autism-phenotype outcome. Sensitivity values for the screeners were poor, whereas specificity values ranged from poor to excellent. The ADOS-2 identified all children with ASD and had a fair specificity. These findings confirm the elevated ASD prevalence made by previous studies with preterm children but also highlight the challenges of successfully identifying ASD in this at-risk group. Caution is warranted when interpreting results of ASD instruments with the currently available cut-off scores and algorithms, especially when developmental challenges are present.

Exploring the Role of Neural Mirroring in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Lieselot RUYSSCHAERT in Autism Research, 7-2 (April 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 7-2 (April 2014) . - p.197-206 Titre : Exploring the Role of Neural Mirroring in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lieselot RUYSSCHAERT, Auteur ; Petra WARREYN, Auteur ; Jan R. WIERSEMA, Auteur ; Ann OOSTRA, Auteur ; Herbert ROEYERS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.197-206 Mots-clés : mirror neurons  ASD  mu suppression  EEG  children Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Investigating the underlying neural mechanisms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) has recently been influenced by the discovery of mirror neurons. These neurons, active during both observation and execution of actions, are thought to play a crucial role in imitation and other social-communicative skills that are often impaired in ASD. In the current electroencephalographic study, we investigated mu suppression, indicating neural mirroring in children with ASD between the ages of 24 and 48 months and age-matched typically developing children, during observation of goal-directed actions and non-goal-directed mimicked hand movements, as well as during action execution. Results revealed no significant group differences with significant central mu suppression in the ASD children and control children during both execution and observation of goal-directed actions and during observation of hand movements. Furthermore, no significant correlations between mu suppression on one hand and quality of imitation, age, and social communication questionnaire scores on the other hand were found. These findings challenge the “broken mirror” hypothesis of ASD, suggesting that impaired neural mirroring is not a distinctive feature of ASD.
