        Elizabeth Usher Memorial Lecture: Rethinking the clinical pathway for autism spectrum disorder and challenging the status quo

        The aim of the paper is to outline the future of early identification and intervention of ASD and the research goals to be addressed to achieve this vision. ...

        Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder According to Maternal-Race Ethnicity and Country of Birth: A Register-Based Study

        An increased prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) among children of immigrant backgrounds has been observed ...

        Health of mothers of children with intellectual disability or autism spectrum disorder: a review of the literature

        The deficits associated with intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD)place a burden on their co-residing families which may impact... ...

        A randomised controlled trial of an iPad-based application to complement early behavioural intervention in Autism Spectrum Disorder

        Technology-based interventions may provide a relatively low-cost addition to existing therapist-delivered interventions for children with ASD ...

        Hospitalisation rates for children with intellectual disability or autism born in Western Australia 1983-1999: A population-based cohort study

        ID and/or ASD were found to be associated with an increased risk of hospitalisation compared with the remainder of the population. ...

        Parent experiences of their children’s diagnosis with autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or both conditions

        A comparison of parents’ experiences of getting a diagnosis for their child with autism, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and both diagnoses can inform our understanding of common and unique themes across these neurodevelopmental conditions. ...

        Commentary: A spectrum for all? A response to Green et al. (2023), neurodiversity, autism and health care

        The broadening of the clinical definition of autism over time-the so-called, autism spectrum-has run in parallel with the growth of a neurodiversity movement that has reframed the concept of autism entirely. Without a coherent and evidence-based framework through which both of these advances can be situated, the field is at risk of losing definition altogether. ...

        The Utility of Natural Language Samples for Assessing Communication and Language in Infants Referred with Early Signs of Autism

        Natural Language Sampling (NLS) offers clear potential for communication and language assessment, where other data might be difficult to interpret. We leveraged existing primary data for 18-month-olds showing early signs of autism, to examine the reliability and concurrent construct validity of NLS-derived measures coded from video-of child language, parent linguistic input, and dyadic balance of communicative interaction-against standardised assessment scores. Using Systematic Analysis of Language Transcripts (SALT) software and coding conventions, masked coders achieved good-to-excellent inter-rater agreement across all measures. ...

        A Parent-Mediated Intervention for Newborns at Familial Likelihood of Autism: Initial Feasibility Study in the General Population

        Developmental theory and previous studies support the potential value of prodromal interventions for infants at elevated likelihood of developing autism. Past research has supported the efficacy of parent-mediated prodromal therapies with infants from as early as 7 months. We outline the rationale for implementing interventions following this model from even earlier in development and report on the feasibility of a novel intervention developed following this model of parent-mediated infant interventions. ...

        Delayed cortical processing of auditory stimuli in children with autism spectrum disorder: A meta-analysis of electrophysiological studies

        Several researchers have hypothesised that individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) show encoding delays in their obligatory event-related potentials (ERPs)/ event-related fields (ERFs) for low-level auditory information compared to neurotypical (NT) samples. However, empirical research has yielded varied findings, such as low-level auditory processing in ASD samples being unimpaired, superior, or impaired compared to NT samples. Diverse outcomes have also been reported for studies investigating ASD-NT differences in functional lateralisation of delays. ...

        Pre-existing differences in mothers of children with Autism Spectrum disorder and/or intellectual disability: A review

        The aim of this study is to review research on the pre-existing characteristics which differentiate mothers of children with ASD and/or ID of unknown cause... ...

        Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in autism spectrum disorder: Protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled clinical trial

        There are no well-established biomedical treatments for the core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A small number of studies suggest that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, may improve clinical and cognitive outcomes in ASD. ...
