Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised  Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule  Autism spectrum disorder  Preterm  Very low birth weight Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Lower gestational age may increase autism spectrum disorder (ASD) vulnerability; however, the incidence of ASD diagnosis through a direct assessment on every very preterm birth child on the population base remains unclear. Moreover, the behavioral characteristics of preterm birth ASD are unknown. Methods: Every very preterm birth child (gestational age < 32 weeks; birth weight < 1500 g) who was discharged from neonatal intensive care units in Southern Taiwan and prospectively followed to 5 years of age was evaluated using the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) and the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R). The term birth (gestational age > 37 weeks) ASD children characterized by ADOS and ADI-R were group matched to the preterm birth ASD by age at examination for comparison. ADOS severity scores were calculated by the Mann-Whitney U test and ADI-R by multivariate analysis of variance and canonical discriminant analysis. Results: Two hundred forty-six (87%) of the 283 very preterm survivors were followed prospectively to 5 years of age. Nineteen (7.7%) of the 246 children fulfilled the diagnostic criteria of ASD. After excluding 1 patient with cerebral palsy and profound mental disability, 18 preterm ASD children were compared with 44 term birth ASD children. The two ASD groups were comparable for age at examination, gender, and intelligence quotient. The two groups showed comparable ADOS severity scores in social affect deficits, restricted repetitive behaviors, and total score, but had differences in qualitative abnormalities in reciprocal social interaction (Wilks lambda F value = 6.2, P < 0.001) of ADI-R. Compared to term birth ASD children, preterm birth ASD children exhibited worse nonverbal behaviors that regulate social interaction (OR 2.59, 95% CI 1.41-4.73, P = 0.002) but more favorable peer relationships (OR 0.58, 95% CI 0.38-0.90, P = 0.01) and socioemotional reciprocity (OR 0.55, 95% CI 0.33-0.92, P = 0.02). In contrast to the heterogeneous severity of social reciprocity in the term ASD group, the behavioral characteristics of the preterm ASD group showed a homogeneous reciprocal social interaction pattern. Conclusions: The 5-year incidence rate of ASD was high in very preterm birth children. Preterm birth ASD exhibited a specific behavioral phenotype of reciprocal social interaction.

Development of T-STAT for Early Autism Screening / Chung-Hsin CHIANG in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-5 (May 2013)

Study 1 included 15 children with Autism and 15 children with Developmental Delay (DD) or language impairment (LI) aged between 24 and 35 months. Study 2 had 77 young children with Autism, PDD-NOS, or DD/LI as a clinical-based validation sample. In Study 1, the signal detection procedure found that a cutoff score of 2 would yield high sensitivity and specificity in T-STAT. In Study 2, using a score of 2 as a cutoff, the agreement between T-STAT risk and ADOS classification was highly acceptable. Results were promising as a Level 2 screening tool for Autism for ages two to three.

Disparity in autism spectrum disorder prevalence among Taiwan National Health Insurance enrollees: Age, gender and urbanization effects / Shang-Wei HSU in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-2 (April-June 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 6-2 (April-June 2012) . - p.836-841 Titre : Disparity in autism spectrum disorder prevalence among Taiwan National Health Insurance enrollees: Age, gender and urbanization effects Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Shang-Wei HSU, Auteur ; Chung-Hsin CHIANG, Auteur ; Lan-Ping LIN, Auteur ; Jin-Ding LIN, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.836-841 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Prevalence  Gender  Age  Urbanization Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The present study aims to characterize the prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) in Taiwan while examining the effects of age, gender, and urbanization on ASD occurrence. A cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze data from 895,639 random health insurance claimants who claimed medical services in the year 2007. Autism was defined using the ICD-9-CM Diagnosis Code 299.0 (autism, current or active). The prevalence of autistic cases was found to be 12.3‰ (10,868/884,771) in the general population, with the prevalence among males (19.2‰) significantly higher than that among females (6‰). With regards to age distribution, we found that the autistic group (mean age = 16.0 years) was significantly younger than the general population (mean age = 37.2 years). A logistic regression analysis found that age, gender, residence urbanization level and Bureau of National Health Insurance regional division all constituted influence factors for autistic occurrence. The results demonstrate the importance of taking into account age, gender, and geographical disparities in autistic prevalence in order to implement appropriate public health policies for the ASD population.

Efficacy of caregiver-mediated joint engagement intervention for young children with autism spectrum disorders / Chung-Hsin CHIANG in Autism, 20-2 (February 2016)

The purpose of this study was to develop a caregiver-mediated joint engagement intervention program combined with body movement play to investigate the effects of joint engagement/joint attention skills in young children with autism spectrum disorders. A quasi-experimental research design was conducted. A total of 34 young children with autism spectrum disorders aged 2–4?years were separated into an intervention and a control group. The program consisted of 20 sessions, 60?min per session, twice a week, for the target child and his or her parent. The results indicated that child-initiated supportive and coordinated joint engagement was greater for the intervention group compared with the control group at 3-month follow-up. This demonstrated that our joint engagement intervention could enhance joint engagement, especially coordinated joint engagement for young children with autism spectrum disorders. The limitations of the study and future directions were discussed.

Nonverbal Communication Skills in Young Children with Autism / Chung-Hsin CHIANG 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.1898-1906 Titre : Nonverbal Communication Skills in Young Children with Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Chung-Hsin CHIANG, Auteur ; Wei-Tsuen SOONG, Auteur ; Tzu-Ling LIN, Auteur ; Sally J ROGERS, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.1898-1906 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Nonverbal-communication Young-autism Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Objective The study was to examine nonverbal communication in young children with autism. Methods The participants were 23 young children with autism (mean CA = 32.79 months), 23 CA and MA-matched children with developmental delay and 22 18–20-month-old, and 22 13–15-month-old typically developing toddlers and infants. The abbreviated Early Social Communication Scales [Mundy et al. 1996, Early social communication scales (ESCS)] were used to test three types of nonverbal communicative skills, i.e., joint attention, requesting, and social interaction. Both frequency and proportion analyses were done in group comparisons. Results (1) Two- to three-year-old children with autism displayed deficits in joint attention ability, especially high-level skills. (2) The deficit in terms of frequency of communication was marked even compared with typically developing infants with younger mental age. (3) Young children with autism had different nonverbal communication profile compared with all three comparison groups. Conclusion Early social-communicative difficulties in autism involve early triadic communications involving joint attention and possibly dyadic turn-taking skills, which has implications for both early screening and early intervention.
