Pre-schoolers with autism spectrum disorder were taller than children with typical development. School-age children with autism spectrum disorder were more overweight/obese, had more body fat and a greater waist circumference and waist/height ratio than children with typical development. The presence of autism spectrum disorder and internalizing problems was associated with cardiovascular risk in school-age children.

Assessing the heterogeneity of autism spectrum symptoms in a school population / Paula MORALES-HIDALGO in Autism Research, 11-7 (July 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 11-7 (July 2018) . - p.979-988 Titre : Assessing the heterogeneity of autism spectrum symptoms in a school population Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Paula MORALES-HIDALGO, Auteur ; P. J. FERRANDO, Auteur ; J. CANALS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.979-988 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  factor mixture analysis  general child population  symptom profiles Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The aim of the present study was to assess whether the nature of the main autistic features (i.e., social communication problems and repetitive and restrictive patterns) are better conceptualized as dimensional or categorical in a school population. The study was based on the teacher ratings of two different age groups: 2,585 children between the ages of 10 and 12 (Primary Education; PE) and 2,502 children between the ages of 3 and 5 (Nursery Education; NE) from 60 mainstream schools. The analyses were based on Factor Mixture Analysis, a novel approach that combines dimensional and categorical features and prevents spurious latent classes from appearing. The results provided evidence of the dimensionality of autism spectrum symptoms in a school age population. The distribution of the symptoms was strongly and positively skewed but continuous; and the prevalence of high-risk symptoms for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and social-pragmatic communication disorder (SCD) was 7.55% of NE children and 8.74% in PE. A categorical separation between SCD and ASD was not supported by our sample. In view of the results, it is necessary to establish clear cut points for detecting and diagnosing autism and to develop specific and reliable tools capable of assessing symptom severity and functional consequences in children with ASD. Autism Res 2018, 11: 979-988. (c) 2018 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc. LAY SUMMARY: The results of the present study suggest that the distribution of autism spectrum symptoms are continuous and dimensional among school-aged children and thus support the need to establish clear cut-off points for detecting and diagnosing autism. In our sample, the prevalence of high-risk symptoms for autism spectrum disorders and social-pragmatic communication disorder was around 8%.

Autism spectrum disorder prevalence and associated sociodemographic factors in the school population: EPINED study / Paula MORALES-HIDALGO in Autism, 25-7 (October 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 25-7 (October 2021) . - p.1999-2011 Titre : Autism spectrum disorder prevalence and associated sociodemographic factors in the school population: EPINED study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Paula MORALES-HIDALGO, Auteur ; N.

However, the prevalence data for southern Europe seem to be lower than international reports and notable methodological differences have been reported among studies. The objective of the Neurodevelopmental Disorders Epidemiological Research Project was to estimate the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder in a representative school sample of the province of Tarragona, Spain. The study included a screening procedure through parents (N?=?3727) and teachers (N?=?6894), and an individual assessment of children at risk and a comparison group (N?=?781). The overall estimated prevalence in our sample was 1.53%, being significantly higher than the 0.83% previously registered diagnoses. A total of 3.31% of the children presented subclinical characteristics of autism spectrum disorder. Girls showed a significantly lower estimated prevalence in all the conditions. Severity profiles were distributed as 46% mild, 47% moderate and 7% severe. Psychological support (65%), educational support (65%) and language therapy (51%) were given to children with autism spectrum disorder. Pharmacological treatment was only found among school-aged children (37.5%). Public schools provided more educational supports (72%) than private schools (36%). The heterogeneity of autism spectrum disorder makes it difficult to determine specific associated sociodemographic factors. The results confirmed a high prevalence of autism spectrum disorder in the province, suggesting a current under-diagnosis in public health services. In view of the results, it is important to promote early diagnosis and intervention, especially in particular groups such as girls, children with intellectual disabilities and children from immigrant families.
