Three year outcomes in infants with a family history of autism and/or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – ‘Most research on early outcomes in infants with a family history (FH) of autism has focussed on categorically defined autism, although some have language and developmental delays. Less is known about outcomes in infants with a FH of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)’. Tony Charman (pic) et al.

The influence of loss to follow-up in autism screening research: Taking stock and moving forward
Open Access paper from the JCPP – ‘How best to improve the early detection of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is the subject of significant controversy. Some argue that universal ASD screeners are highly accurate, whereas others argue that evidence for this claim is insufficient. Relatedly, there is no clear consensus as to the optimal role of screening for making referral decisions for evaluation and treatment.’ R. Christopher Sheldrick et al.

Debate: Neurodiversity, autism and healthcare
Open Access paper from the CAMH journal – ‘I discuss current different uses of the term autism, the relation to intellectual disability, and introduce a conceptualisation of autism as emergent and transactional, which is consistent with current developmental and intervention science. This could bridge between neurodiversity and clinical perspectives and implies a framing of early intervention support that has strong clinical trials evidence and provides the basis for a rational and pre-emptive evidenced care pathway, which I describe.’ Jonathan Green (pic).

Can repeated intranasal oxytocin administration affect reduced neural sensitivity towards expressive faces in autism? A randomized controlled trial
Paper from the JCPP – ‘Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by difficulties in social communication and interaction. Crucial for efficient social interaction is the ability to quickly and accurately extract information from a person’s face.’ Matthijs Moerkerke (pic) et al.

Categorical versus dimensional structure of autism spectrum disorder: A multi-method investigation
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – ‘The primary objective of this study was to use a multi-method approach to examine the broad latent categorical versus dimensional structure of autism spectrum disorder (ASD)’. Thomas W. Frazier (pic) and Lacey Chetcuti et al.

Factors related to retention in a longitudinal study of infants at familial risk for autism
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – ‘We examined multiple child- and family-level factors potentially associated with retention in a longitudinal study of younger siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder or typical development.’ Sally Ozonoff et al.

Research Review: Executive function profiles of preschool children with autism spectrum disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder: A systematic review
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are both associated with differences in Executive Functioning (EF). There is lack of clarity around the specificity or overlap of EF differences in early childhood when both disorders are first emerging. This systematic review aims to delineate preschool EF profiles by examining studies comparing the EF profiles of children with and without ASD or ADHD. Marina Christoforou et al.

Early manifestations of genetic liability for ADHD, autism and schizophrenia at ages 18 and 24 months
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “Given that ADHD, autism and schizophrenia are all highly heritable, we tested the hypothesis that in the general population, measures of toddler language development, motor development and temperament are associated with genetic liability to ADHD, autism and/or schizophrenia”. Lucy Riglin (pic) et al.
