Language and traits of autism spectrum conditions: evidence of limited phenotypic and etiological overlap [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Language difficulties have historically been viewed as integral to autism spectrum conditions (ASC), leading molecular genetic studies to consider whether ASC and language difficulties have overlapping genetic bases.

open access: yesAutism, 2022
Since prior research has mostly focused on children, less is known about how autistic adults and adults with sub-clinical autistic traits interpret pragmatically complex social situations and the kind of narrative discourse they produce.

Bayesian Network Structure and Predictability of Autistic Traits

open access: yesPsychological Reports, 2020
The aim of this work is to explore the construct of autistic traits through the lens of network analysis with recently introduced Bayesian methods. A conditional dependence network structure was estimated from a data set composed of 649 university students that completed an autistic traits questionnaire.

Exploring autistic traits in anorexia: a clinical study [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Autism, 2013
The objectives of this study were to explore associations between autistic traits and self-reported clinical symptoms in a population with anorexia nervosa (AN). Experimental and self-report evidence reveals similarities between AN and autism spectrum condition (ASC) populations in socio-emotional and cognitive domains; this includes difficulties with ...

Do Influential Articles on the Genetics of Autism Show Evidence of Engagement With the Autistic Community?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Investigations into the etiology and genetic basis of autism continue to drive much autism research, yet reports are emerging of this research not aligning with priorities of autistic people. Engagement of autistic people in the research process is a key way to take their perspectives on board.

The Role of SLC39A8.p.(Ala391Thr) in Schizophrenia Symptom Severity and Cognitive Ability: Cross‐Sectional Studies of Schizophrenia and the General UK Population

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The missense SNP NC_000004.12:g.102267552C>T (also known as SLC39A8.p.(Ala391Thr), rs13107325) in SLC39A8 encodes a zinc transporter. This SNP has been linked to schizophrenia and is the likely causal variant for one of the genome‐wide association loci associated with the disorder. Using regression analyses, we tested whether the schizophrenia‐

Genome‐Wide Insights and Polygenic Risk Scores in Common Epilepsies: A Narrative Review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The research of single gene‐related disorders or pathogenic copy‐number variations (CNVs) has given a significant impetus to the shift from a diagnostic work‐up focused on epileptic syndromes to genomic approaches in individuals with severe pediatric‐onset epilepsies and in developmental and epileptic encephalopathies.

Visual attention in autism families: ‘unaffected’ sibs share atypical frontal activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: In addition to their more clinically evident abnormalities of social cognition, people with autism spectrum conditions (ASC) manifest perturbations of attention and sensory perception which may offer insights into the underlying neural ...
