This study evaluated EI records for estimating rates of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) using a chart abstraction protocol, with good interrater agreement (k = .86). Sampling 304 EI records yielded a point prevalence of (per 1,000) 8.5 (95% CI: 4.8–10.9) and a cumulative incidence of 7.4 (95% CI: 5.5–12.4). These rates are similar to recent published estimates. Additionally, the male-to-female ratio for autism, and rates of other developmental disorders were found to be consistent with current literature. These results suggest that local systems EI records may provide an excellent resource for ASD surveillance and research.

Is Earlier Better? The Relationship between Age When Starting Early Intervention and Outcomes for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Selective Review / Patricia O. TOWLE in Autism Research and Treatment, 2020 (2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research and Treatment > 2020 (2020) Titre : Is Earlier Better? The Relationship between Age When Starting Early Intervention and Outcomes for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Selective Review Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Patricia O. TOWLE, Auteur ; Patricia A. PATRICK, Auteur ; Tamique RIDGARD, Auteur ; Sofia PHAM, Auteur ; Jaime MARRUS, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Although the conventional wisdom is that "earlier is better" when it comes to intervention for children with ASD, it is not clear what evidence exists to support this notion. This review examined a group of studies that addressed outcomes for young children with ASD who started early intervention at a range of ages. The review was selective by including only papers that examined the age of initiation of treatment as well as baseline cognitive, language, or adaptive level and, in addition, employed a method to control for the covariance between early ability level and age of beginning intervention. Fourteen studies were identified and then compared on methods and outcomes. The support for "earlier is better" was mixed, but it was clear that complex relationships among predictor variables need to be explored in order to understand the role of age of starting early intervention for later outcomes.

School-Aged Functioning of Children Diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder Before Age Three: Parent-Reported Diagnostic, Adaptive, Medication, and School Placement Outcomes / Patricia O. TOWLE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-6 (June 2014)

TOWLE, Auteur ; Karyn VACANTI-SHOVA, Auteur ; Shristi SHAH, Auteur ; Ann HIGGINS-D’ALESSANDRO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1357-1372 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  ASD  Early diagnosis  Longitudinal  School-age  School placement  Adaptive behavior  Medication use Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Eighty children with early autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnoses (under 36 months) were identified using a chart abstraction protocol applied to early intervention charts. Parents filled out questionnaires by mail when the children were school-aged (ages 6–16 years). Similar to previous studies, approximately 20 % no longer had ASD diagnoses; the other participants were assigned to Moderate/Severe versus Mild ASD outcome groups. These three groups were compared across several variables, including diagnostic features and functional features including adaptive behavior, social experiences, medication use, and school placement. The findings expand our knowledge about outcomes in longitudinal studies of children with ASD, as well as provide support for using relatively indirect methods (chart review, parent questionnaire) to gather this type of information.
