Autism spectrum disorders: developmental disconnection syndromes (2007, background): “Other associated, but non-core, features such as mental retardation are also variable, and current data suggest that <50% of all individuals who have autism present with significant cognitive impairment [3].”
A common genetic variant in the neurexin superfamily member CNTNAP2 increases familial risk of autism. (2008, neutral): “The prevalence is approximately 20 per 10,000 for autistic disorder and 60 per 10,000 individuals for all autism spectrum disorders, with males being 4 times as likely, as compared to females, to be affected.(2) There is no doubt that autism presents a significant disease burden.”
Standardizing ADOS Scores for a Measure of Severity in Autism Spectrum Disorders (2008, methodology): “True normalization of severity of autism would require a representative population, but to date, population studies have been too small, e.g., Brick Township (Bertrand et al. 2001), have not used the ADOS ( Chakrabarti and Fombonne 2005; CDC 2007), or have collected samples older than most clinical”
Anxiety in Children and Adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorders (2009, background): “Finally, recent studies have used better diagnostic instruments, which has served to improve differential diagnosis among the different spectrum disorders as well as helped to delineate ASD from other psychiatric disorders in children (Chakrabarti & Fombonne, 2005).”
Structural variation of chromosomes in autism spectrum disorder. (2008, background): “ASDs are observed in all populations with an incidence of 6 cases per 1000, with about four times more males diagnosed than females.(1) The estimated prevalence of autism in siblings is 5%–10%.”
Mapping autism risk loci using genetic linkage and chromosomal rearrangements (2007, background): “Worldwide, males are affected four times as often as female”
Global Prevalence of Autism and Other Pervasive Developmental Disorders (2012, methodology): “…techniques used in other surveys relied on multiple and repeated screening phases, involving both different informants at each phase and surveying the same cohorts at different ages, which certainly maximized the sensitivity of case identification [Baird et al., 2006; Chakrabarti & Fombonne, 2005].”
Quantitative CHecklist for Autism in Toddlers (2012, neutral): “…Cox, Swettenham et al., 2000; Baird, Simonoff, Pickles, Chandler, Loucas et al., 2006; BaronCohen, Scott, Brayne, Bolton, Allison et al., submitted; Bertrand, Mars, Boyle, Bove, Yeargin-Allsopp et al., 2001; Chakrabarti & Fombonne, 2001, 2005; Scott, Baron-Cohen, Bolton & Brayne, 2002).”
Autism risk factors: genes, environment, and gene-environment interactions (2012, background): “Intellectual disability (ID) is present in 65% to 75% of individuals with a strict diagnosis of autistic disorder, and in 30% to 55% if all ASDs are considered.(54,55) Two different models are proposed to explain this overlap.”
Motor Coordination in Autism Spectrum Disorders: A Synthesis and Meta-Analysis (2010, background): “Many studies in the ASD literature considered only participants with IQ [ 70, while estimates suggest that around 70% of individuals with autism have IQ’s lower than that (Chakrabarti and Fombonne 2005).”
