Introduction
Communication disorder of childhood, distinct from schizophrenia (DSM-IV) characterized by morbidly self-centered, wishful thinking.
Etiology
- idiopathic
- genetic & environmental factors appear to contribute equally to risk for autism[44]
- risk factors
- younger siblings of children with autism with increased risk of autism[15]
- more common among children of mothers with diabetes, hypertension, or obesity during pregnancy[19]
- hypertension during pregnancy[80]
- gestational diabetes in mother is a risk factor for autism in offspring (RR=1.3-1.4)[51][82] by 26 weeks[82]
- pre-existing type 2 diabetes in mother (RR=1.2-1.4)[51][82]
- diabetes mellitus type 1 in mother during pregnancy (RR=2.3)[82]
- paternal age is a risk factor
- grandfather age is a risk factor[28]
- mother with a history of child abuse may be risk factor[28]
- maternal use of antidepressants (SSRI & others) may be associated with increased risk of autism[29][72]
- relative risk for SSRI (if any) is < 1.61[34]; 2.17[59]
- 1st trimester antidepressant use not associated with increased risk for autism in offspring[69]
- maternal use of valproate during pregnancy is associated with increased risk of autism[30]
- prenatal exposure to air pollution is associated with increased risk for autism[31]
- prenatal exposure to pesticide DDT may increase risk for autism[83]
- paternal obesity (BMI >= 30)[42]
- in utero exposure to pesticides[46]
- increased autism risk observed in children born by C-section (RR=1.15-1.21) is likely due to genetic or other factors & is not caused by method of delivery[53]
- epidural analgesia during delivery may increase risk for autism[91]
- in utero exposure to beta-2-adrenergic receptor agonists may increase risk of autism (RR=1.3)[60]
- high plasma folate (RR=2 for plasma folate > 59 nmol/L)[63]
- high plasma vit B12 (RR=3 for plasma vit B12 > 600 pmol/L)[63]
- plasma folate > 59 nmol/L & plasma vit B12 > 600 pmol/L (RR=17)[63]
- maternal fever during the second trimester[71]
- greater depth of prenatal ultrasound may be associated with increased autism risk for autism[77]
- congenital heart disease mayt increase risk for autism[86]
- preterm birth[92]
- not risk factors
- *exposure to thimerosal from vaccines not associated with autism[12]
- *MMR vaccine not a risk factor[52]
- *induced labor not a risk factor[43]
- *mild infections, febrile episodes, or use of antibiotics during pregnancy are not risk factors[24]
- *phototherapy for hyperbilirubinemia[65]
- *1st trimester antidepressant use not associated with increased risk for autism in offspring[69]
* children with autism their younger siblings are undervaccinated compared with unaffected children[78]
Epidemiology
- prevalence of 0.05-1%[10]; 1.1% of children[20]
- 2.1% in Utah (highest); 0.48% in Alabama (lowest)
- prevalence higher in boys (1.85%) than in girls (0.4%)
- variation might be attributable to diagnostic practices, underrecognition of ASD symptoms in some racial/ethnic groups, socioeconomic disparities in access to services, & regional differences in clinical or school-based reporting practices[41][47]
- prevalence similar in white & black children[90]
- 1 in 40-60 children with autism[84]; 1 in 54 by age 8[90]
- associated with advanced paternal age[3]
- 4 times as common in boys than girls
- median age at diagnosis is 52 months[79]; 33 months[90]
- mean annual precipitation positively correlates with autism prevalence[6] (California, Oregon, Washington)
- 85% of children with autism have developmental concerns documented in the medical record by age 36 months, but only 42% receive a full evaluation[79]
Pathology
- prenatal onset[39]
- macrocephaly at birth[17]
- brain volumes are enlarged in preschoolers & normalize during adolescence[40]
- increased numbers of neurons in the prefrontal cortex
- dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (79% greater than normal)
- medial prefrontal cortex (29% greater than normal)[17]
- RNA expression of 25 genes in autistic brain different from expression in normal controls[39]
- imbalance in serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, GABA & neuropeptides suggested[4]
- allergy & autism may share mechanism of immunologic dysfunction[81]
Genetics
- X-linked forms associated with defects in neuroligin 3, neuroligin 4, MECP2
- AUTS2 gene is interrupted by a translocation breakpoint in a pair of autistic twins
- copy number variations in SHANK3, NLGN4, NRXN1 genes associated with autism[5]
- copy number variations at chromosome 16p11.2 in 1% of autism patients[5]
- susceptibility to autism
- associated with polymorphisms in:
- associated with defects in SLC9A9 (autism type 16)
- other implicated genes: AVPR1A
- genetic factors account for greatest risk[85]
Physical examination
- because patients with autism have difficulty with physical contact, physical examination should be limited to essential maneuvers, performed slowly, & explained in detail before proceeding[11]
Clinical manifestations
- onset prior to age 3
- see diagnostic criteria
- unaffected siblings may show some autistic features[13]
- attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder symptoms may mask underlying autism in young children[55]
- manifestations somewhat at odds with diagnostic criteria[11]
- persistent deficits in communication & social interaction associated with impaired function
- inability to read body language
- repetitive, inflexible non-functional behaviors
- persistent deficits in communication & social interaction associated with impaired function
Diagnostic criteria

Laboratory
- urine p-cresol elevated in children with severe autism[37]
- higher maternal levels of HSV-2 Ab in serum linked to autism in male offspring[68]
- oxytocin in serum/plasma may predict response to nasal oxytocin[73]
Radiology
- magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of brain may show differences in development in white-matter tracts at age 6-24 months compared with normal children[18]
Complications
- seizures may develop (especially in adolescence)
- sleep disorders
- attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)[87]
- mental retardation
- feeding problems, gastrointestinal symptoms[87]
- associated rare disorders
- fragile X syndrome

- Duchenne muscular dystrophy
- Leber's congenital optic atrophy (mitochondrial)
- increased likelihood of food allergy (RR=2.3), asthma, skin allergy[81]
Differential diagnosis
- obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)
- repetitive behaviors may be common to autism & OCD
Management
- intervention at age 9 months for infants showing early behavioral signs of autism with techniques to increase caregiver awareness of their infant's individual social communication
- guiding specific caregiver responses to build infant social engagement & interaction reduces autism symptom severity across early childhood & reduces odds of an autism diagnosis at age 3 years.[93]
- early intervention beginning at age 2-4 years with therapy sessions involving the parents of autistic children can reduce the severity of autism symptoms at age 10 years[66]
- agents useful for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) may be useful in autism[4]
- respiridone (1st drug approved for use in autism)
- diminishes tantrums, aggression, mood swings, self injury
- mirtazapine may have provide anxiolytic benefit in elderly with autism[17]
- drug of choice in elderly with autism[17]
- may be useful for inappropriate sexual behavior
- strong supporting evidence not found
- selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI)
- citalopram NOT useful[9]
- methyphenidate
- can help inattention, hyperactivity
- can worsen behavioral symptoms
- valproate
- can diminish aggression, impulsivity
- sulforaphane derived from broccoli-sprout extract associated with parent-rated improvements in core social & behavioral features in young boys with moderate-to- severe autism, but not with global ratings of autism severity[48]
- respiridone (1st drug approved for use in autism)
- nasal oxytocin
- prognosis
- in a minority of cases, patients with autism may recover[25]
- prevention
- periconceptional folic acid reduces risk for autism in offspring (women)[26]
- multivitamin use during pregnancy may be associated with reduced risk for autism in offspring[75]
- multivitamin or folic acid supplements before or during pregnancy may reduce risk of autism in offspring[76]
- sulforaphanes from broccoli may mitigate effects of environmental pollutants known to increase autism risks[48]
- prevent & correct vitamin D deficiency[49]
- breast feeding may reduce risk of autism in infants homozygous for a specific CD38 variant that increases risk for autism[56]
- cognitive behavioral therapy (6 sessions) seems to reduce depression & stress in mothers of autistic children[32]
- music therapy of no benefit in reducing symptoms[74]
- behavioral strategies 1st line for sleep disorders[88]
- screening
- all toddlers (age range, 14 to 31 months) with use of screening questionnaires[14]
- American Academy of Pediatrics recommends standardized screening of at-risk children at 18- & 24 months[62]
- USPSTF concludes insufficient evidence to recommend for or against screening of children
Comparative biology
- a mouse model for autism is characterized by an
- unusual microbiome
- compromised gut mucosal barrier
- absorption & high blood levels of gut bacterial metabolites
- one of these is related to a metabolite (p-cresol) elevated in urine of autistic children[36][37]
- treatment of the autistic mice with the probiotic Bacteroides fragilis reversed the abnormal microbiome, high blood levels of bacterial metabolites, & behavioral abnormalities[36]
- in two rodent models of autism, the GABA switch from excitatory to inhibitory neurotransmitter does not occur with the oxytocin surge during delivery
- chloride concentrations remain high & GABA remains an excitatory neurotransmitter after birth
- prenatal adminitration of bumetanide 1 day prior to delivery eliminates autistic behavior in the rodent offspring[38]
- in a mouse moderl of autism, normal social behavior was restored by early oxytocin treatment[50]
Notes
- lifetime cost of supporting a child with autism is $1.4-$2.4 million[45]
- most of the costs in childhood are related to special education
- most of the costs in adulthood, they are due to residential accommodation, medical care, & loss of productivity[45]
