Abstract:
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSD) are currently conceptualized as distinct illnesses. However, there has been considerable debate over the association between these two disorders. Research findings over the last decade suggest a number of overlapping domains between ASD and SSD: shared environmental risk factors, genetics, neurobiological features, brain imaging, clinical features, and comorbidities. These commonalities lead to significant challenges in differentiating between the core symptoms of ASD and SSD. Misinterpretation of symptoms is common in clinical practice, particularly while working with young people at the early stage of these neurodevelopmental conditions, such as first-episode psychosis or clinical high risk. It is essential for mental health professionals to know about research-informed clinical guidelines on how to differentiate ASD and SSD in the clinical setting. [ Psychiatr Ann . 2023;53(5):209–215.]

Abstract:
O transtorno de espectro autista (TEA) é um distúrbio que afeta o neurodesenvolvimento da criança e faz com que sua capacidade de interação social, intelectual e seu comportamento sejam menos desenvolvidos. O objetivo desse estudo foi evidenciar como as desordens epigenéticas podem contribuir para o surgimento de crianças autistas, demonstrando como é essencial que se faça pesquisas científicas e busque compreender as características epigenéticas que levam ao desenvolvimento do TEA. O estudo busca realizar uma revisão integrativa de literatura e tem como descritores: “transtorno do espectro autista e as desordens epigenéticas”, “autismo”, “desordens epigenéticas”, “autism spectrum disorder and epigenetic disorders”, “autism”, “autism spectrum disorder”, “disorders epigenetics”, a base de dados consultados foram a Pubmed, Scientific Eletronic Library Online (Scielo) e Google acadêmico. Os estudos apontam que o TEA é caracterizado como um transtorno de herança multifatorial e que fatores ambientais, independentes ou em conjunto com os fatores epigenéticos, aumentam o risco desse agravo. Concluímos que as alterações epigenéticas estão associadas ao autismo, assim como as consequências comportamentais e histológicas deste distúrbio.

Abstract:
The term Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) refers to a neuro-developmental disorder that include repetitive behaviours, extremely constrained interests and deficits in social communication. In the last ten years, the numerous epidemiological papers discussing connection between autism and environmental chemical exposures has significantly increased. These findings are crucial because they focus on modifiable risk factors that may open up new possibilities for the primary prevention of the autism-related disability, which is now recognised to be more strongly related to environmental factors than was previously thought. A variety of environmental factors have been known as significant factors relevant to aetiology of ASD, such as lead and mercury (heavy metals), PCB(organic contaminant) and phthalates and BPA. The most accurate animal model of autism among all other models is valproic acid-induced autism, which can reproduce almost all of the molecular and cellular changes seen in humans with ASD. This review provide insight into various diagnostic available for autism, pathophysiology of autism and animal model of autism to develop a pharmacological therapeutic intervention for the treatment of disease.

Abstract:
There are many evidence-based approaches and strategies worldwide for children with autism spectrum disorders that can support reducing the core deficits of these disorders. Therefore, the article compared behavioral approaches and developmental approaches in the intervention for children with autism following the 3 main criteria: (1) Basic requirements and characteristics in intervention for children with autism spectrum disorder; (2) Comparison of behavioral approaches (represented as ABA) and developmental approaches (DIR\Floortime, RDI) in autism spectrum disorder's intervention; and (3) The choice of behavioral approaches and developmental approaches in autism spectrum disorder's intervention. Each approach has its own principles and uses different techniques and methods, so each approach can bring different results. After comparing the research results using these two approaches, it is found that there is no single intervention approach that is effective for all children with ASD. Educators should combine approaches appropriate to each child's developmental stage.

Abstract:
Background and aims Language abilities vary greatly across children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). In the present study, we investigate passive sentence comprehension, which has been underexplored among individuals with autism spectrum disorders and found to be delayed among other clinical populations. This study is the first to assess grammatical comprehension among Danish-speaking adolescents with autism spectrum disorders. Methods Fifteen Danish-speaking adolescents with autism (mean age: 14.9 years; age range: 13–18 years) participated in a picture selection task assessing comprehension of passive sentences relative to active sentences. We compared our findings for adolescents with autism spectrum disorders to those of 15 typically developing Danish-speaking adolescents matched for age and nonverbal reasoning as measured by the Matrix subtest of the WISC-IV/WAIS-IV. We also analyzed associations between passive comprehension and nonverbal reasoning. Results The results showed ceiling effects for both groups on all sentence types indicating that Danish adolescents with autism spectrum disorders do not face problems comprehending passive sentences. However, when considering variation within the autism spectrum disorder group, correct passive comprehension was highly significantly associated with nonverbal reasoning for the autism spectrum disorder group ( r = .75), while this was not the case for the typically developing adolescents. Analyses of the few errors produced showed a preference for Theta-role reversal errors in the autism spectrum disorder and the typically developing groups. Conclusions Danish-speaking adolescents with high-functioning autism spectrum disorders do not show impairment in passive sentence comprehension. Correlation analyses however show that for adolescents with autism spectrum disorders, passive sentence comprehension is associated with nonverbal reasoning. We discuss how these results can be viewed as consistent with the few previous studies on passive comprehension in individuals with autism spectrum disorders. Implications Our study provides additional cross-linguistic evidence that passive comprehension is not problematic for individuals with high-functioning autism spectrum disorders. The finding of the relationship between nonverbal reasoning and passive sentence comprehension may inform clinical best practices as children with autism spectrum disorders who underperform in measures of nonverbal reasoning may benefit from additional receptive language screening.

Abstract:
Both sleep problems and unemployment are common in adults with autism spectrum disorder; however, little research has explored this relationship in this population. This study aimed to explore factors that may be associated with the presence of an International Classification of Sleep Disorders–Third Edition defined sleep disorder in adults with autism spectrum disorder (IQ > 80). A total of 36 adults with autism spectrum disorder and 36 controls were included in the study. Participants completed a 14-day actigraphy assessment and questionnaire battery. Overall, 20 adults with autism spectrum disorder met the International Classification of Sleep Disorders–Third Edition criteria for insomnia and/or a circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorder, while only 4 controls met criteria for these disorders. Adults with autism spectrum disorder and an International Classification of Sleep Disorders–Third Edition sleep disorder had higher scores on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and were more likely to be unemployed compared to adults with autism spectrum disorder and no sleep disorder. The findings demonstrate, for the first time, that sleep problems are associated with unemployment in adults with autism spectrum disorder. Further research exploring the direction of this effect is required; sleep problems that have developed during adolescence make attainment of employment for those with autism spectrum disorder difficult, or unemployment results in less restrictions required for optimal and appropriate sleep timing.

Abstract:
Introduction. Autism spectrum disorders and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are among the most significant and widespread mental disorders that manifest in childhood and adolescence. Their etiology and pathogenesis have not been studied enough and most likely a complex of factors leads to their formation. Among other things, data are accumulating on the role of various hazards and diseases of the mother, which increase the risk of neuropsychiatric disorders in offspring. These include genitourinary infections, whose contribution to the development of autism spectrum disorders and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder has not yet been systematically studied.Aim. To establish the contribution of maternal genitourinary infections to the formation of autism spectrum disorders and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children.Materials and methods. An electronic search was conducted in the Scopus and Pubmed databases to obtain relevant literature by August 2022. The search strategy included a combination of keywords and MESH terms: urogenital infections, and autism, and autism spectrum disorders, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and maternal infections.Results. On this topic 10 papers have been identified in the available literature – 6 on autism spectrum disorders and 4 on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. In all the papers on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder included in the analysis, an association between genitourinary infections and neuropsychiatric disorders was revealed. In the case of autism spectrum disorders, the data obtained were more contradictory. The heterogeneity of the available data (different designs, different deficits and approaches to the diagnosis of genitourinary infections) did not allow for a meta-analysis.Conclusions. Genitourinary infections play a pathogenetic role in the formation of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, while the effect of genitourinary infections on the development of autism spectrum disorders seems less unambiguous. It is necessary to continue work in this area with a more unified design to form practical recommendations for the prevention of neuropsychiatric disorders.

Abstract:
In adults with autism spectrum disorder, co-occurring psychiatric conditions are prevalent, and depression is one of the most common co-occurring disorders. This study examined the relationship between depression and cognitive ability, autism symptom severity, and self-reported social impairments in autism spectrum disorder. A total of 33 adults with autism spectrum disorder and 28 adults with typical development completed a standardized psychiatric interview, cognitive test, measure of clinician-rated autism symptom severity, and self-report of social impairments. Nine participants with autism spectrum disorder (27%) met the criteria for a depressive disorder (autism spectrum disorder + depressive disorder). Relatively more females with autism spectrum disorder had a co-occurring depressive disorder. The typical development group had a higher intelligence quotient than the autism spectrum disorder group, but the autism spectrum disorder + depressive disorder group did not differ from the typical development or autism spectrum disorder group. While the autism spectrum disorder + depressive disorder group had lower clinician-rated autism symptom severity than the autism spectrum disorder group, the autism spectrum disorder + depressive disorder group reported more social impairments than the autism spectrum disorder group. Self-reported social impairments predicted depression in adults with autism spectrum disorder when accounting for symptom severity and cognitive ability. These findings suggest that more self-perceived social impairments are related to depressive disorders in autism spectrum disorder, and may help clinicians identify individuals who are vulnerable in developing a co-occurring depressive disorder. Future directions include follow-up studies with larger cohorts and longitudinal designs to support inferences regarding directionality of these relationships.

Abstract:
There is a critical need for validated screening tools for autism spectrum disorder in very young children so families can access tailored intervention services as early as possible. Few screeners exist for children between the recommended screening ages of 18–24 months. This study examined the utility of a new autism-specific parent-report screening tool, the Early Screening for Autism and Communication Disorders for children 12–36 months. Field-testing was conducted from five sites with 471 children screened for communication delays in primary care or referred for familial risk or concern for autism spectrum disorder. The Early Screening for Autism and Communication Disorders was evaluated in three age groups: 12–17, 18–23, and 24–36 months. A best-estimate diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder, developmental delay, or typical development was made. Receiver operating characteristic curves were examined for all 46 items and the 30 items that best discriminated autism spectrum disorder from the non-spectrum groups. Area under the curve estimates for the total were greater than 0.90 across age groups. Cutoffs were established for each age group with sensitivity between 0.86 and 0.92 and specificity between 0.74 and 0.85. Results provide preliminary support for the validity of the Early Screening for Autism and Communication Disorders as an autism-specific screener in children 12–36 months with elevated risk of communication delay or autism spectrum disorder. Lay abstract There is a critical need for accurate screening tools for autism spectrum disorder in very young children so families can access tailored intervention services as early as possible. However, there are few screeners designed for children 18–24 months. Developing screeners that pick up on the signs of autism spectrum disorder in very young children has proved even more challenging. In this study, we examined a new autism-specific parent-report screening tool, the Early Screening for Autism and Communication Disorders for children between 12 and 36 months of age.

A best-estimate diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder, developmental delay, or typical development was made. Analyses examined all 46 items and identified 30 items that best discriminated autism spectrum disorder from the non-spectrum groups. Cutoffs were established for each age group with good sensitivity and specificity. Results provide preliminary support for the accuracy of the Early Screening for Autism and Communication Disorders as an autism-specific screener in children 12–36 months with elevated risk of communication delay or autism spectrum disorder.

Abstract:
At the stage of school education in the framework of comprehensive support for children with autism spectrum dis¬order it is important to adequately access their educational needs while taking all aspects of autistic disorders into consideration including intellectual disorders. This article examines some moments of interconnection between autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disability. It demonstrates that such interconnection can be treated as chronological comorbidity; it depicts dynamics and structure of connection between autism spectrum disorders and intellectual dis¬ability, different variants of qualitative characteristics of this connection; specifics of assessment of the level of intellect in autism spectrum disorders. The article provides practical recommendations for intellect assessment in children with autism spectrum disorder that allow avoiding mistakes in decision-making in educational trajectory of the child.

Abstract:
This review paper traces the evolution of autism since its simultaneous discovery back in the forties, by Leo Kanner and Hans Asperger, until the present day. Many disciplines, ranging from psychoanalysis to behaviorism, struggled to understand autism and provide a map to navigate it but ended up with only fragments of this multifaceted disorder. Even the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) kept changing autism’s categorization from infantile psychosis to behavioral disorder and, recently, to neuro-developmental disorder. Today, autism’s rapid strides toward the realm of neuroscience are blurring all the frontiers between the aforementioned disciplines, transcending the black-white dichotomy and establishing a new grey area.

Abstract:
Abstract Background: The prevalence of people with autism spectrum disorders in some parts of the world tends to increase, in Indonesia alone, accurate and complete data and information from people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are still lacking, so it is feared that many children with risk symptoms of autism spectrum disorders do not get treatment early. Aim: This study aims to prevent the risk of autism spectrum disorders in children by applying massage therapy based on analysis of the Modified Check List for Autism in Toddler (M-Chat) scores. Methods: The study was conducted from May 2019 to March 2020 at three public health centers in the city of Jakarta. An analysis was carried out before and after the application of massage in a time series of four periods on 10 children aged 18-36 months with M-Chat scores, then analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) to obtain a cut off point to determine the risk status of autism spectrum disorders. Results: The results showed that there was an effect of massage therapy on the M-Chat score of children with autism spectrum disorder risk p=0.004 <0.05 and changes in the M-Chat score of children with autism spectrum disorder risk experienced significant changes after massage in the third and fourth therapy periods. with p = 0.005 and p = 0.007 < 0.05. Conclusion: The results show that massage therapy can prevent the risk of autism spectrum disorders in children based on the Modified Check List for Autism in Toddler (M-Chat).

Abstract:
Autism spectrum disorders are developmental disabilities that occur in early childhood and are characterized with a persistent deficit of social interaction. Treatment of this disease is often multimodal and may include early intensive behavioral therapy (applied behavioral analysis), speech therapy, occupational and physiotherapy, social skills training, special education and training. Modern options for drug treatment of the autism spectrum remain limited. There is no evidence that any of the known drugs have a significant effect on social exclusion, which is one of the characteristic symptoms of this disorder. However, there are potential effects on its other disorders; in particular, risperidone and aripiprazole have the highest level of evidence for the irritability treatment. Memantine, riluzole, amantadine, and buspirone reduced irritability in children with autism spectrum disorders when administered in combination with risperidone. One of the common manifestations of the autism spectrum in children is a symptom of attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder. Methylphenidate has been reported to be effective in treating hyperactivity, but its efficacy in children with autism spectrum disorders is usually lower than in those developing physiologically. The efficacy of prolonged−release guanfacine and clonidine has been demonstrated. Stereotyped and repetitive behaviors in autism spectrum disorders are difficult to treat. Antidepressants have been shown to be ineffective in children with these disorders. Moreover, children with autism spectrum disorders develop more severe side effects when taking these drugs. Cannabidiol is likely to be a promising substance for the treatment of autism spectrum disorders, but there are still insufficient convincing clinical data on the efficacy and safety of cannabinoid therapy. Key words: autism spectrum disorders, comorbid conditions, treatment.

Abstract:
Hyperacusis is highly prevalent in the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) population. This auditory hypersensitivity can trigger pragmatically atypical reactions that may impact social and academic domains. Objective: The aim of this report is to describe the relationship between decreased sound tolerance disorders and the ASD population. Topics covered: The main topics discussed include (1) assessment and prevalence of hyperacusis in ASD; (2) etiology of hyperacusis in ASD; (3) treatment of hyperacusis in ASD. Conclusions: Knowledge of the assessment and treatment of decreased sound tolerance disorders within the ASD population is growing and changing.

Abstract:
In order to determine the effectiveness of a Gastrointestinal Severity Index to screen for gastrointestinal disorders, the Gastrointestinal Severity Index was administered to 135 children with autism spectrum disorders and 146 comparisons with and without gastrointestinal disorders. The mean Gastrointestinal Severity Index scores of the groups were 3.53 ± 1.78, 3.15 ± 1.99, 0.81 ± 1.25, and 0.29 ± 0.76 (comparative pediatric patients with gastrointestinal disorder = autism spectrum disorder + gastrointestinal disorder > autism spectrum disorder-gastrointestinal disorder > comparative pediatric patients without gastrointestinal disorder, respectively), Ps < 0.05. Receiver operating characteristic curves and areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves were calculated to ascertain which Gastrointestinal Severity Index cutoff scores yielded the highest sensitivity and specificity rates for the diagnosis of gastrointestinal disorders. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (0.97) for the comparison group was higher (P < 0.001) than the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (0.85) for autism spectrum disorder children indicating that the Gastrointestinal Severity Index was more effective in screening for gastrointestinal disorders in comparisons. However, the same Gastrointestinal Severity Index cutoff score of 2 and above yielded, respectively, sensitivity and specificity rates of 92% and 93% for comparisons and 80% and 79% for autism spectrum disorder children. The negative and positive predictive values based on these sensitivity and specificity rates were calculated for a range of prevalences of gastrointestinal disorders and indicated that the Gastrointestinal Severity Index may be useful for screening children with and without autism spectrum disorder for gastrointestinal symptoms.

Abstract:
Introduction: Concerns about the quality of life (QoL) of parents of children with autism spectrum disorder have been raised by previous study. Policy decision-makers and healthcare professionals can be better informed about the environmental factors associated with parental QoL, which will enhance outcomes for both parents and children. The objective of this review is to perform a comprehensive review that assessed the environmental relevant factors associated with quality of life (QoL) of parents of ASD children (under 18 years old). Methodology: To identify the environmental factors associated with parental QoL, a scoping review was conducted using the Arksey and O'Malley original and enhanced framework. Three electronic data bases (PubMed, Scopus & WOS) and reference list checks were used in the search. Results: Social support, family support, residential condition and access to services were all factors linked to parental quality of life in this group. Conclusion: The review clarified environmental factors as one of variables that have association with parental QoL. The results of this analysis also highlighted potential areas of support that have implications on future policy and practices.
