Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Variants in the CNTNAP2 gene, encoding the cell adhesion molecule CASPR2, have been identified as genetic risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the mechanisms through which CNTNAP2 dysfunction alters circuit function remain unknown.

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Irritability is a prevalent and impairing feature associated with autism, yet remains poorly understood, particularly in adults. Drawing heavily on insights translated from pediatric and transdiagnostic literatures, we propose that irritability in autistic individuals often reflects a psychophysiological stress or threat response, rooted in a ...

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with differences in neurodevelopment and altered metabolism, yet the interplay between brain morphometry, mitochondrial and energy metabolism biomarkers, and autistic traits in adults remains poorly understood. This study investigates the link between brain structure, psychometric measures, and both

Motor Disorders in Autism: From Comorbidity to Core Criterion
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT While repetitive movements are recognized as a diagnostic hallmark of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in frameworks such as the DSM and ICD, other motor disturbances, including gait atypicalities and postural control difficulties, have historically been overlooked or framed as secondary comorbidities.

Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The increasing prevalence of autism has led to considerable system challenges as specialist‐driven approaches have struggled to keep pace. Recent research has challenged status quo models by demonstrating that community‐based pediatric clinicians can accurately diagnose autism in young children. This research provides an opportunity to further

The Unique Roles of Executive Function in Co‐Occurring Psychopathologies in Autism
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often experience co‐occurring psychiatric conditions, such as anxiety and attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which significantly impair daily functioning. However, the underlying mechanisms linking these conditions to core ASD features remain poorly understood.

Prevalence of Phelan McDermid Syndrome Estimated To Be ~1:7300 Using a Multisource Model
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Estimating the prevalence of genetic disorders is complicated by many factors including sampling bias and differing methods of estimation. However, establishing the true prevalence of these disorders is critical for understanding disease burden, pharmacoeconomic modeling, and resource allocation for testing and care.

Irony Comprehension in Monolingual and Bilingual Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder
Autism Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study examined verbal irony comprehension in monolingual and bilingual autistic children, focusing on irony recognition, intention understanding, cue use while deciphering ironic meanings, and error patterns. A low‐verbal, multimodal task was used to minimize linguistic and metalinguistic demands.
