Brief Report: Physical Activity, Body Mass Index and Arterial Stiffness in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Preliminary Findings / K. S. HEFFERNAN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-2 (February 2018)

BARREIRA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.625-631 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Accelerometry  Autism spectrum disorder  Blood pressure  Cardiovascular  Children  Physical activity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We examined the association between physical activity (PA), body mass index (BMI) and novel measures of subclinical cardiovascular disease (CVD) in 15 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) (mean age 7 +/- 2 years, 2 girls). PA was objectively assessed using accelerometry as time spent in moderate-vigorous physical activity (MVPA). Arterial stiffness was measured via aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) and taken as a marker of subclinical CVD risk. MVPA was inversely associated with aortic PWV (r = - 0.46, p < 0.05). BMI percentile was positively associated with aortic PWV (r = 0.61, p < 0.05). Overall findings suggest that reduced PA and higher body mass in children with ASD are associated with increased arterial stiffness which may have a detrimental impact on overall cardiovascular health.

Brief Report: Social Functioning Predicts Externalizing Problem Behaviors in Autism Spectrum Disorder / N. SHEA in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-6 (June 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 48-6 (June 2018) . - p.2237-2242 Titre : Brief Report: Social Functioning Predicts Externalizing Problem Behaviors in Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : N. SHEA, Auteur ; E. PAYNE, Auteur ; N. RUSSO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2237-2242 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Externalizing problems  Parent report  Socialization Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Individuals with ASD often display externalizing behaviors, which have been associated with lower quality of life in adulthood. Social difficulties have been hypothesized to underlie externalizing problems among individuals with ASD (Klin and Volkmar in Asperger Syndrome, 340-366, 2000), but this has never been tested empirically. We examined whether socialization abilities predicted externalizing problems assessed by parent report in a group of 29 individuals with ASD (age range 7-16 years) and 29 TD individuals matched for IQ, age, and gender. Socialization scores accounted for 50% of the variance in externalizing behaviors among individuals with ASD, but not in TD children. These findings have implications for intervention, and suggest that targeting social difficulties might provide a better means to addressing externalizing problems.
