An Investigation of Sleep Characteristics, EEG Abnormalities and Epilepsy in Developmentally Regressed and Non-regressed Children with Autism / Flavia GIANNOTTI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 38-10 (November 2008)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 38-10 (November 2008) . - p.1888-1897 Titre : An Investigation of Sleep Characteristics, EEG Abnormalities and Epilepsy in Developmentally Regressed and Non-regressed Children with Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Flavia GIANNOTTI, Auteur ; Paola BERNABEI, Auteur ; Antonella CERQUIGLINI, Auteur ; Flavia CORTESI, Auteur ; Daniela MIRAGLIA, Auteur ; Cristina VAGNONI, Auteur ; Teresa SEBASTIANI, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.1888-1897 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Sleep Child Autism Developmental-regression Epilepsy EEG-abnormalities Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study investigated sleep of children with autism and developmental regression and the possible relationship with epilepsy and epileptiform abnormalities. Participants were 104 children with autism (70 non-regressed, 34 regressed) and 162 typically developing children (TD). Results suggested that the regressed group had higher incidence of circadian rhythm disorders than non-regressed children. The regressed group showed higher Children’s Sleep Habits Questionnaire Bedtime Resistance, Sleep Onset Delay, Sleep Duration and Night-Wakings scores. Epilepsy and frequent epileptiform EEG abnormalities were more frequent in regressed children. Past sleep disorders and a history of developmental regression were significantly associated with sleep disorders. This study is an initial step in better understanding sleep problems in regressed children with autism, further studies are necessary to better investigate these aspects.
