Age at autism spectrum disorder diagnosis: A systematic review and meta-analysis from 2012 to 2019 / Maarten VAN 'T HOF in Autism, 25-4 (May 2021)

However, this range is based on studies from 1991 to 2012 and measures have since been introduced to reduce the age at autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis (statistical analysis that combines the results of multiple scientific studies) for studies published between 2012 and 2019 to evaluate the current age at autism spectrum disorder diagnosis. We included 56 studies that reported the age at diagnosis for 40 countries (containing 120,540 individuals with autism spectrum disorder). Results showed the current mean age at diagnosis to be 60.48?months (range: 30.90-234.57?months) and 43.18?months (range: 30.90-74.70?months) for studies that only included children aged ?10?years. Numerous factors that may influence age at diagnosis (e.g. type of autism spectrum disorder diagnosis, additional diagnoses and gender) were reported by 46 studies, often with conflicting or inconclusive results. Our study is the first to determine the global average age at autism spectrum disorder diagnosis from a meta-analysis. Although progress is being made in the earlier detection of autism spectrum disorder, it requires our constant attention.

Early detection of young children at risk of autism spectrum disorder at well-baby clinics in the Netherlands: Perspectives of preventive care physicians / Michelle Ij SNIJDER in Autism, 26-7 (October 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 26-7 (October 2022) . - p.2012-2024 Titre : Early detection of young children at risk of autism spectrum disorder at well-baby clinics in the Netherlands: Perspectives of preventive care physicians Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Michelle Ij SNIJDER, Auteur ; Shireen P. T. KAIJADOE, Auteur ; Maarten VAN 'T HOF, Auteur ; Wietske A. ESTER, Auteur ; Jan K. BUITELAAR, Auteur ; Iris J. OOSTERLING, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2012-2024 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder/diagnosis  Child  Child, Preschool  Early Diagnosis  Humans  Infant  Mass Screening  Netherlands  Physicians  autism spectrum disorder  early detection  guideline adherence  preventive care  screening Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To improve early detection of autism spectrum disorder in preventive care, a Dutch guideline was developed 5years ago. The guideline provides preventive care physicians at well-baby clinics action-oriented advice and describes a step-by-step approach for children identified at an increased risk for autism spectrum disorder during general healthcare surveillance. The present qualitative study evaluated adherence to the guideline and studied barriers regarding early detection of autism spectrum disorder at well-baby clinics. Interviews were undertaken with 12 preventive care physicians (one representative per province). It was found that the vast majority of participants did not follow-up general surveillance with an autism spectrum disorder -specific screener as prescribed by the guideline. Six barriers (limited knowledge about autism spectrum disorder symptoms in infant and toddlerhood, professional attitude toward early detection, problems in discussing initial worries with parents, limited use of screening instruments, perceptions toward cultural and language differences and constraints regarding availability of healthcare services) were found. The results of this study highlight the importance of an integrative approach, raising awareness of the benefits regarding early detection of autism spectrum disorder in preventive care, the need of continuous investment in easy and accessible training and active screening, and a closer collaboration between preventive care organizations and autism spectrum disorder experts.
