Abstract Infants born preterm are at risk for neurodevelopmental delays and impairments, with the greatest risk for those born extremely preterm or at the limits of viability. Developmental surveillance in neonatal neurodevelopmental follow-up...
Background Perinatal exposure to fine particles increases the risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Thus, to prevent exposure-related neurodevelopmental disorders, it is crucial to clarify how such particles influence ASD susceptibility. However,...
Background CDKL5 deficiency disorder (CDD) is an early-onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy that includes both sleep and behavioral symptoms. Though there is a documented association between epilepsy and mood disorders, affective...
Neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome (NARDS) carries high morbidity and mortality. Preterm infants at risk need to be identified early so that treatment is not delayed. We aimed to identify factors associated with NARDS in preterm infants....
Neurodevelopmental and psychiatric conditions often originate in youth and can lead to adverse social and functional outcomes. It is unclear whether these associations are driven by genetic liability to these conditions, with possible developmental...
Background Sleep-related problems (SRP) in childhood are common and clinically relevant, yet their neural correlates and links to future mental health outcomes remain poorly understood. This study investigates how distinct dimensions of SRP relate to...
To characterise preterm children testing positive in the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition (ADOS-2), but negative in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5), a cross-sectional analysis of...
Background Biallelic pathogenic variants in PGAP1 result in neurodevelopmental disorders, with fewer than 20 affected individuals reported to date. Findings We report an additional patient with intellectual disability, microcephaly, hypotonia, and...
Several reports have suggested Oropouche virus (OROV)-related vertical transmission and adverse fetal outcomes; however, these observations require further investigation. Herein, we propose complementary experimental and epidemiological approaches...
Background Dup15q syndrome is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder associated with severe disabling symptoms giving substantial caregiver burden. No formal, systematic research of the most common symptoms and lived experience of Dup15q syndrome has...
Introduction Dyslexia is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by poor reading despite normal cognitive skills. Impaired coherent motion perception was found in previous studies on dyslexic children. In this exploratory pilot study, we compared...
Background and objectives Extremely preterm infants are at high risk for neurodevelopmental impairment. The brainstem plays a critical role in early development. This study aimed to establish reference values for two-dimensional brainstem...
Background Micro- and Nano plastic (MNP) contamination is an emerging environmental health concern with potential implications for pediatric health. Due to developmental susceptibility and higher relative exposure, fetuses, infants, and young...
Children with complex congenital heart disease (CHD) are at high risk of brain lesions both before and after cardiac surgery. Preoperative brain injury reflects foetal and perinatal brain development and represents an independent predictor of...
Vacuolar protein sorting 16 (VPS16) functions in endolysosomal trafficking. Biallelic VPS16variants cause a mucopolysaccharidosis-like syndrome reported in only four patients, with neurological involvement ranging from mild developmental delay to...
Bipolar disorder (BD) is characterized by marked clinical heterogeneity, motivating efforts to identify biologically grounded subtypes such as the recently defined neurodevelopmental phenotype (NDP). Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS)...
Klinefelter syndrome (KS) is a common, yet underdiagnosed sex chromosome aneuploidy characterized by considerable phenotypic variability and multisystem involvement beginning in early life. The increasing use of noninvasive prenatal testing has led...
Purpose To develop optimal algorithms of parent-administered items to improve the detection of autism and other developmental disorders at the 18-month visit. Methods Parents of 11,878 children aged 16–20 months completed the M-CHAT-R/F™,...
Background Microcephalic osteodysplastic primordial dwarfism type II (MOPD-II) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in PCNT. It is characterised by severe prenatal and postnatal growth restriction, microcephaly, skeletal...
Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the loss of autism diagnosis (LAD) in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and to compare the clinical features of LAD cases with those who continued to meet criteria for ASD without...
The Journal of Autism and Developmental Disordersseeks to advance theoretical and applied research as well as examine and evaluate clinical...
Journal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders is an open access journal that integrates current, cutting-edgeresearch across neurobiology, genetics,...
Journal
Molecular Autismis a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes high-quality basic, translational and clinical research that has relevance to...
