WHITEHOUSE, Auteur Article en page(s) : 36 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Eye-tracking could expedite autism identification/diagnosis through standardisation and objectivity. We tested whether Gazefinder autism assessment, with Classification Algorithm derived from gaze fixation durations, would have good accuracy (area under the curve [AUC] ≥ 0.80) to differentiate 2-4-year-old autistic from non-autistic children. METHODS: Community sampling (March 2019-March 2021) of 2:00–4:11 year-olds included children recruited into a diagnosed Autism Group (‘cases’) and Non-Autism ‘Control’ Group (with likely undiagnosed autism minimised). We recruited well beyond minimum necessary sample size to ensure within-group heterogeneity and allow exploratory subgroup analysis. Alongside Gazefinder eye-tracking attempted with all recruited participants, we collected parent-report measures for all children, and clinical/behavioural measures with autistic children. RESULTS: 102 autistic (81.4% male; M(age)= 44mths; SD = 8.8) and 101 non-autistic children (57.4% male; M = 40; SD = 10.5) were recruited and eligible; the former slightly older, proportionately more male, and reflecting greater socio-demographic diversity. Gazefinder autism assessment was completed with 101 non-autistic children (n = 1 returning minimal data), and attempted with 100- and completed with 96 autistic children (n = 2 not attempted following adverse responses to clinical testing; n = 4 attempted but unable to calibrate). The Non-Autism Group returned significantly more overall tracking data. The final Classification Algorithm (range 0-100; threshold score = 28.6)—derived from n = 196 children’s fixation durations to elements of social/non-social scenes, human face presentations, and referential attention trials—had AUC = 0.82 (sensitivity = 0.82, specificity = 0.70). Compared to those correctly classified, autistic children misclassified as ‘controls’ showed greater overall tracking, and less pronounced autism features and developmental disability. Compared to correctly classified non-autistic children, those misclassified as ‘cases’ were older with lower overall tracking. LIMITATIONS: Our groups differed on socio-demographic characteristics and overall tracking (included within the Classification Algorithm). We used the ‘Scene 10A’ stimulus set as provided, without update/modification. Industry employees who developed the final Algorithm were non-blinded to child group, and considered only gaze fixation durations. Community sampling and ‘case-control’ design—comparing diagnosed autistic vs. non-autistic children—could be improved via future referral-based recruitment. CONCLUSIONS: Most children tolerated Gazefinder autism assessment, and our Classification Algorithm properties approached those reported from other Gazefinder use and established clinical assessments. Independent replication is required, and research informing the most suitable clinical application of this technology.

Yet questions remain about acceptability of these supports to the Autistic and autism communities. Through mixed-methods participatory research - co-designed and produced by Autistic and non-Autistic researchers - we sought diverse community perspectives on this topic, including to understand the relative acceptability of different support options. A total of 238 participants completed our online survey: 128 Autistic and 110 non-Autistic respondents, some of whom also self-identified as parents of Autistic, otherwise neurodivergent, and/or neurotypical children, and/or as health/education professionals and/or researchers. Most participants agreed that very-early-in-life approaches should help parents understand and support their children, and disagreed that these should seek to suppress autistic behaviour. Most agreed with the goal of respecting infant autonomy, and that parent education towards creating sensitive, accommodating environments could be appropriate, albeit with nuanced differences-of-opinion regarding the acceptability of specific therapeutic approaches. Participants generally endorsed the terms 'support' (vs 'intervention') and 'early-in-life' (vs 'at-risk'/'pre-emptive').

Research suggests that parenting supports may be helpful for parents and their infants, when provided in the first 2 years of life - before a formal diagnosis is given, but when information suggests an infant is more likely to be Autistic. However, we do not know how acceptable these types of supports might be to the Autistic and autism communities. We asked 238 Autistic and non-autistic people - some of whom were parents, and some of whom were professionals working in research, health and education - about their perspectives on very-early supports. People generally agreed that it could be acceptable to work with parents to help them understand and support their child?s specific needs and unique ways of communicating. People suggested a variety of support strategies could be acceptable, including parent education, changing the environment to meet an infant?s needs, and creating opportunities for infants' to make choices and exercise control. People preferred respectful and accurate language - including the term 'support' (rather than 'intervention') and 'early-in-life' (rather than 'at-risk' of autism, or 'pre-emptive' when describing developmental stage). Continuing to work with community members will help to make sure autism support programmes are relevant and helpful.

Here, we studied two candidate genes known to affect mood and aggression, the serotonin transporter (5-HTTLPR) and monoamine oxidase A (MAOA-VNTR) polymorphisms, in 50 males with FXS ages 8–24 years. Mothers and fathers of participants reported the frequency and severity of aggressive/destructive, self-injurious, and stereotypic behaviors. Polymorphism genotypes were unrelated to age and IQ. Results showed a significant effect of 5-HTTLPR genotype on aggressive/destructive and stereotypic behavior; males with FXS who were homozygous for the high-transcribing long (L/L) genotype had the most aggressive and destructive behavior, and individuals homozygous for the short (S/S) genotype had the least aggression. Those with the L/L genotype also had the highest levels of stereotypic behavior. There was no effect of MAOA-VNTR on behavior; however those with the high-activity, 4-repeat genotype were more likely to be taking SSRI or SNRI medication. This preliminary study prompts consideration of secondary genes that may modify behavioral phenotype expression in neurodevelopmental disorders, even those with a single gene etiology such as FXS.

We aimed to determine if advanced ToM abilities were reduced in individuals with subclinical traits of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), known as the "Broader Autism Phenotype" (BAP), and identify the EFs that predicted unimpaired performance on an advanced ToM task, the faux pas test. We assessed 29 participants (13 males) with the BAP who were relatives of children with ASD. Thirteen participants showed reduced ability to understand a faux pas. A discriminant function analysis correctly classified 79% of cases as impaired or unimpaired, with high sensitivity (80%) and specificity (77%), which was best predicted by language-mediated EFs, including verbal generativity, working memory, cognitive inhibition, and flexibility. Autism Res 2020, 13: 921-934. © 2019 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc. LAY SUMMARY: Little is known about the complex cognitive processes that enable accurate interpretation of another person's thoughts and emotions, known as "theory of mind." In relatives of individuals with autism, who had mild traits of autism themselves, approximately half had difficulty interpreting situations involving a social faux pas. Cognitive inhibition and flexibility, working memory, and verbal generativity were related to, and appeared to be protective for, unimpaired understanding of a faux pas.

Comparison of mental health, well-being and parenting sense of competency among Australian and South-East Asian parents of autistic children accessing early intervention in Australia / Jodie SMITH in Autism, 25-6 (August 2021)

We also know that poorer mental health among parents of autistic children has been observed across different cultures. Most research focuses on Western cultures, so we know little about parental mental health and well-being of parents from different cultural backgrounds; yet, it is likely that cultural background contributes to how parents view their child's condition and respond to the diagnosis. Here, we compared mental health, quality of life and well-being between families raising an autistic child from Australian backgrounds to families from South-East Asian backgrounds. All children in the current study were receiving the same community-based early intervention. When compared to the general population, parents had poorer mental health overall, but there were no differences between the two groups of parents. However, parents from South-East Asian backgrounds reported higher well-being and fewer difficulties associated with their child's autism. These findings suggest that cultural background likely influences not only parent's view of, and response to, their child's autism, but also their own sense of well-being. As researchers and clinicians working with families of autistic children, we should more explicitly consider family's cultural background within our work.
