Clinical and Behavioral Correlates of Blood Acylcarnitine Profiles in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Cross-Sectional Analysis
Background/Objectives : Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) etiology is complex, involving genetics and environmental factors, and associated with impaired energy metabolism. Mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (mFAO) is instrumental to energy production through the oxidation of acylcarnitines (ACs). We performed a comprehensive investigation of blood AC profiles in a pediatric ASD cohort, aiming to define ASD subgroups based on AC profiles and link th…
Head circumference growth in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Trend and clinical correlates in the first five years of life
In this study HC size from birth to 5 years links to accelerated HC growth rate as early as the first 6 months of age in children with ASD and macrocephaly, preceding the onset and diagnosis of ASD. We found that in early childhood, children with ASD-M may exhibit some advantages in language and social communication and emotional skills without differences in autism severity, when compared with age-matched normocephalic ASD children. Longitudinal…
Sensory phenomena in children with Tourette syndrome or autism spectrum disorder
SP are a frequently reported characteristic both of ASD and TS. Future studies are needed to better evaluate the differences on their phenomenology in patients with TS and ASD
Neuroactive Amino Acid Profile in Autism Spectrum Disorder: Results from a Clinical Sample
Biological bases of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) include both genetic and epigenetic causes. Patients with ASD show anomalies in the profile of certain plasma amino acids, including neuroactive amino acids. Monitoring plasma amino acids may be relevant for patient care and interventions. We evaluated the plasma amino acid profile in samples extracted from dry blood spots by electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry. Fourteen amino acids …
A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Videoconference vs. Face-to-Face Delivery of Behavior Therapy for Youths With Tourette Syndrome in the Time of Covid-19
Online remote behavior therapy is a promising tool for behavioral therapies for patients with Tourette Syndrome and may represents an alternative treatment option
Enhancing neuroimaging genetics through meta-analysis for Tourette syndrome (Enigma-TS): A worldwide platform for collaboration
Tourette syndrome (TS) is characterized by multiple motor and vocal tics, and high-comorbidity rates with other neuropsychiatric disorders. Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), major depressive disorder (MDD), and anxiety disorders (AXDs) are among the most prevalent TS comorbidities. To date, studies on TS brain structure and function have been limited in size wit…
