Titre : Sex Differences in Autism Spectrum Disorder: Evidence from a Large Sample of Children and Adolescents Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : William P.L. MANDY, Auteur ; Rebecca CHILVERS, Auteur ; Uttom CHOWDHURY, Auteur ; Gemma SALTER, Auteur ; Anna SEIGAL, Auteur ; David H. SKUSE, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.1304-1313 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Pervasive developmental disorder Sex differences High-functioning Comorbidity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Sex differences have been found amongst toddlers and young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We investigated the presence and stability of these ASD sex differences throughout childhood and adolescence. Participants (N = 325, 52 females; aged 3–18 years) consecutively received an ASD diagnosis at a clinic for assessing high-functioning ASD (mean verbal IQ = 92.6). There were no IQ sex differences. By parent report and direct observation, females had less repetitive stereotyped behaviour (RSB), with male-equivalent levels of social and communication impairment. Teachers reported males with ASD as having greater externalising and social problems than females. The female phenotype we describe was stable across our sample’s age range. Their milder RSBs and less severe difficulties at school may lead to under-recognition of ASD in females.

Titre : Sex Differences in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder Identified Within a High-Risk Infant Cohort Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lonnie ZWAIGENBAUM, Auteur ; Susan E. BRYSON, Auteur ; Peter SZATMARI, Auteur ; Jessica BRIAN, Auteur ; Isabel M. SMITH, Auteur ; Wendy ROBERTS, Auteur ; Tracy VAILLANCOURT, Auteur ; Caroline RONCADIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2585-2596 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Early diagnosis Sex differences Infants Longitudinal study Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Sex differences were examined in 3-year-olds with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) ascertained from a high-risk cohort, and high- and low-risk comparison groups. Participants included 319 high-risk siblings and 129 low-risk controls. Eighty-five siblings were diagnosed with ASD, including 57 of 176 boys (32.4 %) and 28 of 143 girls (19.6 %), implying a relative odds of ASD of 1.65 in boys versus girls. There were modest sex differences on cognitive and adaptive skills and ASD symptom severity at age 3, but differences between boys and girls with ASD mirrored those in the non-ASD groups. The lower than expected male-to-female ratio, and the relatively high cognitive level among diagnosed children, suggest that we have identified an unanticipated number of higher-functioning girls with ASD.

A retrospective chart review was performed and demographic as well as clinical data were collected from children with ASD diagnoses who attended two mental health clinics in Uganda between 2014 and 2019. Descriptive statistics such as percentages, means, and standard deviations were used to summarize the data. Independent t-test was also performed to determine differences in the mean age of diagnosis between males and females. Two hundred and thirty-seven (156 males, 81 females) children with ASD were identified. The average age of ASD diagnosis was (6.9?±?4.0)?years. A statistically significant difference in age of ASD diagnosis was found between males and females (t = -2.106, p = 0.036), such that on average females received a diagnosis at least 1?year later than males. Of the 237 participants, 53.6% were identified with ASD only, 16.0% had ASD and ADHD, 10.5% were diagnosed with ASD and epilepsy, and 7.2% had a diagnosis of complex ASD. The results confirm delays in access to ASD diagnosis and suggest that females are more likely to receive a ASD diagnosis later than males within the Ugandan context. ASD awareness should be intensified to improve public or professional knowledge about ASD to enhance early identification in Uganda.

A total of 37 boys and 23 girls recruited from three Arab countries (Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan) matched for age and IQ. They were compared using Indian Scale for Assessment of Autism (ISAA) and the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). The boys had poor emotional responsiveness and the girls had more cognitive problems. With regard to coexisting psychopathology boys exhibited significantly more delinquent behavior problems. Longitudinal, representative studies are needed to elucidate etiological significance of the observed sex differences.

Titre : Sex differences in brain structure: a twin study on restricted and repetitive behaviors in twin pairs with and without autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : A. VAN'T WESTEINDE, Auteur ; Elodie CAUVET, Auteur ; R. TORO, Auteur ; R. KUJA-HALKOLA, Auteur ; J. NEUFELD, Auteur ; K. MEVEL, Auteur ; Sven BÖLTE, Auteur Article en page(s) : 1 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Neuroanatomy Repetitive behaviors Sex differences Twins Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Females with autism spectrum disorder have been reported to exhibit fewer and less severe restricted and repetitive behaviors and interests compared to males. This difference might indicate sex-specific alterations of brain networks involved in autism symptom domains, especially within cortico-striatal and sensory integration networks. This study used a well-controlled twin design to examine sex differences in brain anatomy in relation to repetitive behaviors. Methods: In 75 twin pairs (n = 150, 62 females, 88 males) enriched for autism spectrum disorder (n = 32), and other neurodevelopmental disorders (n = 32), we explored the association of restricted and repetitive behaviors and interests-operationalized by the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (C domain) and the Social Responsiveness Scale-2 (Restricted Interests and Repetitive Behavior subscale)-with cortical volume, surface area and thickness of neocortical, sub-cortical, and cerebellar networks. Results: Co-twin control analyses revealed within-pair associations between RRBI symptoms and increased thickness of the right intraparietal sulcus and reduced volume of the right orbital gyrus in females only, even though the mean number of RRBIs did not differ between the sexes. In a sub-sample of ASD-discordant pairs, increased thickness in association with RRBIs was found exclusively in females in the orbitofrontal regions, superior frontal gyrus, and intraparietal sulcus, while in males RRBIs tended to be associated with increased volume of the bilateral pallidum. Limitations: However, due to a small sample size and the small difference in RRBI symptoms within pairs, the results of this exploratory study need to be interpreted with caution. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that structural alterations of fronto-parietal networks in association with RRBIs are found mostly in females, while striatal networks are more affected in males. These results endorse the importance of investigating sex differences in the neurobiology of autism symptoms, and indicate different etiological pathways underlying restricted and repetitive behaviors and interests in females and males.
