Wasim, Muhammad; Khan, Haq Nawaz; Ayesha, Hina; Awan, Fazli Rabbi – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Objectives: Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) are rare genetic disorders. Generally, IEMs are untreatable; however, some IEMs causing intellectual disability are potentially treatable if diagnosed earlier. In this study, levels of some clinically important biochemical parameters in intellectually disabled children suspected for IEMs were tested…

Jason, Leonard A.; Katz, Ben Z.; Sunnquist, Madison; Torres, Chelsea; Cotler, Joseph; Bhatia, Shaun – Child & Youth Care Forum, 2020
Background: Most pediatric prevalence studies of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) have been based upon data from tertiary care centers, a process known for systematic biases such as excluding youth of lower socioeconomic status and those less likely to have access to health care. In addition, most pediatric ME/CFS…

We examined associations between child body mass index at 2-5 years and maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index, gestational weight gain, and rapid weight gain during infancy in children with autism spectrum disorder, developmental delays, or population controls. The Study to Explore Early Development is a multi-site case-control study of children,…

Alexeeff, Stacey E.; Yau, Vincent; Qian, Yinge; Davignon, Meghan; Lynch, Frances; Crawford, Phillip; Davis, Robert; Croen, Lisa A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2017
This study examines medical conditions diagnosed prior to the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Using a matched case control design with 3911 ASD cases and 38,609 controls, we found that 38 out of 79 medical conditions were associated with increased ASD risk. Developmental delay, mental health, and neurology conditions had the strongest…
