The objectives of this study were to: (1) investigate changes in functional connectivity in children with ASD+DCD after CO-OP; (2) determine whether brain changes are maintained three months post-intervention; and (3) explore the relationship of functional connectivity changes with improved motor function. Method In this study, 24 children with ASD+DCD were randomly assigned to either a treatment or waitlist group and underwent three resting-state MRI scans over six months. The treatment group received intervention between the first and second scan; the waitlist group received intervention between the second and third scan. Results After CO-OP, participants showed increased functional connectivity in the left precentral gyrus and right middle frontal gyrus (Cohen?s d=0.76 and 0.79, respectively). Brain changes were maintained three months post-intervention. Regression analysis revealed increased connectivity between the sensorimotor network and left insular cortex, correlating with motor outcomes.

Motor Impairments in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis / Melika KANGARANI-FARAHANI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-5 (May 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 54-5 (May 2024) . - p.1977-1997 Titre : Motor Impairments in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melika KANGARANI-FARAHANI, Auteur ; Myrah Anum MALIK, Auteur ; Jill G. ZWICKER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1977-1997 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This article comprehensively reviews motor impairments in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to: (1) determine the prevalence of motor problems in children with ASD; (2) understand the nature of motor difficulties in ASD and whether they are consistent with developmental coordination disorder (DCD); and (3) determine if the term DCD was used as a co-occurring diagnosis in children with ASD after publication of the DSM-5 in 2013. The following databases were systematically searched: MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, and PsycINFO from 2010 to December 2021. Articles were included if they: (1) were peer-reviewed and published in a scientific journal; (2) included children with ASD who were between 5 and 12 years; (3) used motor or function measures to assess motor abilities in children with ASD. Studies that included children with intellectual disabilities were excluded. Two independent reviewers reviewed titles, abstracts, and full-text articles for inclusion. Twenty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria and were assessed for quality by two independent reviewers using the Appraisal tool for Cross-Sectional Studies. The majority of articles (92.5%) indicated that 50-88% of children with ASD had significant motor impairments on standardized motor assessments and/or functional questionnaires. The nature of motor and function problems in ASD were consistent with DCD; however, only three out of 20 papers (15%) that were published from 2014 described the motor problems as DCD. One study reported that 15.1% of children with ASD with motor impairments had a co-occurring diagnosis of DCD, suggesting that DCD is under-recognized in this clinical population.
