Controlled trial of lovastatin combined with an open-label treatment of a parent-implemented language intervention in youth with fragile X syndrome. [PDF]
BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to conduct a 20-week controlled trial of lovastatin (10 to 40 mg/day) in youth with fragile X syndrome (FXS) ages 10 to 17 years, combined with an open-label treatment of a parent-implemented language intervention (

Receptive–Expressive Language Phenotypes in Infants and Toddlers With Autism Features
ABSTRACT Children diagnosed with autism often present with an atypical discrepancy between their receptive and expressive language levels, or an atypical receptive–expressive language phenotype. Children with an atypical receptive–expressive phenotype present with a relative receptive language advantage (expressive level < receptive level) or a ...

Adverse Childhood Experiences in Autistic and Neurotypical Girls
ABSTRACT Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) are potentially traumatic, life‐altering events that occur in childhood with long‐term negative physical and/or mental health outcomes. Previous research, while limited and largely focused on males, suggests children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at higher risk of experiencing ACEs than typically ...

The 3‐Hit Metabolic Signaling Model for Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Summary
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a highly heritable yet environmentally sensitive neurodevelopmental condition whose biological heterogeneity has resisted a unifying causal explanation for over 100 years. The 3‐hit metabolic signaling model proposes that ASD arises from abnormal persistence of an evolutionarily conserved stress‐response ...
