We used Florida healthcare claims data to characterize sex differences (female/male) in co-occurring conditions among autistic children ages 1-21 (N?=?83,500). After adjusting for age, race, ethnicity, urbanicity, and insurance, autistic girls had significantly higher odds of anxiety disorders, mood disorders, intellectual disability, developmental disorders, epilepsy, metabolic disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, and sleep disorders compared to autistic boys. Autistic girls had significantly lower odds of ADHD. The findings contribute to the growing body of research on the unique healthcare needs of autistic girls.

Understanding parents' concerns about their children with autism taking public school transportation in Los Angeles County / Amber M. ANGELL in Autism, 22-4 (May 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 22-4 (May 2018) . - p.401-413 Titre : Understanding parents' concerns about their children with autism taking public school transportation in Los Angeles County Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Amber M. ANGELL, Auteur ; O. SOLOMON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.401-413 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  bus  participation  school transportation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There are a number of recent US news media reports of children and youth with autism becoming lost, injured, or even dying while taking public school transportation, yet research on this problem is scarce. This ethnographic study examines the experiences of 14 parents whose children with autism take public school transportation in Los Angeles County. We present two case studies of children with autism being "lost" while in transit from school to home on the bus to (1) describe how the situation was experienced, responded to, and managed by the parents; (2) consider three interrelated themes that emerged from interviews with 14 parents, related to children's safety, independence, and participation, across multiple contexts and analytic levels; and (3) discuss the findings in relation to US news media reports of incidents involving children with autism on school buses to identify specific weaknesses in school transportation infrastructure, particularly in the context of privatization, that create conditions in which children with autism can "fall through the cracks" in potentially life-threatening ways. We argue that there is a critical need to address transportation accessibility for individuals on the autism spectrum to ensure their safety and support their independence and community participation.
