Measures of tonic and phasic activity of the locus coeruleus—norepinephrine system in children with autism spectrum disorder: An event‐related potential and pupillometry study

open access: yesAutism Research, Volume 15, Issue 12, Page 2250-2264, December 2022., 2022
Abstract A growing body of research suggests that locus coeruleus‐norepinephrine (LC‐NE) system may function differently in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Understanding the dynamics of both tonic (resting pupil diameter) and phasic (pupil dilation response [PDR] and event‐related potential [ERP]) indices may provide meaningful ...

Association of maternal autoimmune disease and early childhood infections with offspring autism spectrum disorder: A population‐based cohort study

open access: yesAutism Research, Volume 15, Issue 12, Page 2371-2380, December 2022., 2022
Abstract The aim of this study was to examine potential synergistic effects between maternal autoimmune disease and early childhood infections and their association with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in offspring. Both exposures have been associated with increased risk of ASD in previous studies, but potential synergistic effects remain underexplored.
