| Résumé : |
BACKGROUND: SHANK2 disorder is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by a deletion or pathogenic sequence variant of the SHANK2 gene and is associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), intellectual disability (ID), and developmental delay. To date, research in SHANK2 has focused on laboratory-based in vivo and in vitro studies with few prospective clinical studies in humans. METHODS: A remote assessment battery was comprised of caregiver interviews with a psychiatrist, psychologists, and a genetic counselor, caregiver-reports, and review of records. Results from this cohort were reported using descriptive statistics. An age-matched sample of participants with SHANK3 haploinsufficiency (Phelan-McDermid syndrome, PMS) was used to compare adaptive behavior between the two groups. RESULTS: All ten participants demonstrated delays in adaptive behavior, with most motor skills preserved and a weakness in communication. According to parent report, 90% of participants carried a formal diagnosis of ASD, 50% of participants carried a diagnosis of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and mild-to-moderate developmental delays were noted. Sensory hyperreactivity and seeking behaviors were more pronounced than sensory hyporeactivity. Medical features included hypotonia, recurrent ear infections, and gastrointestinal abnormalities. No similar facial dysmorphic features were observed. Compared to PMS participants, individuals with SHANK2 disorder had significantly higher adaptive functioning. CONCLUSIONS: Consistent with previous studies of SHANK2 disorder, these results indicate mild to moderate developmental impairment. Overall, SHANK2 disorder is associated with developmental and adaptive functioning delays, high rates of autism, including sensory symptoms and repetitive behaviors, and ADHD. This study was limited by its remote nature, diverse age range, and the homogeneous racial and ethnic sample. Future studies should examine larger, diverse cohorts, add cognitive testing, capture longitudinal data, and include in-person assessments. |
