Results Prevalence rates of autism spectrum disorder rose substantially over time within single-age groups and increased from year to year within birth cohorts. Autism spectrum disorder prevalence among children aged 6 to 11 years increased from 3 per 10 000 in 1991-1992 to 52 per 10 000 in 20...
The prevalence rate of autism spectrum disorder among children aged eight years in the state Georgia was estimated to be around 25 per 1,000 children.
Reported prevalence rates of ASD vary across different countries and regions. The global prevalence is estimated to be approximately 1% [14]. A study by Liu Xian et al. [15] reported an ASD prevalence of 26.50/10,000 in China from 2000 to December 2016. In 2023, the Autism and ...
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and feeding and eating disorders (FEDs) such as anorexia nervosa (AN) are strongly linked as evidenced by frequent comorbidity and overlapping traits. However, eating and social behaviors are shaped by culture, so it is critical to examine these associations in diffe...
Conclusion The rate of autism found in this study was higher than the rates from studies conducted in the United States during the 1980s and early 1990s, but it was consistent with those of more recent studies. INTRODUCTION Individuals with autism have unusual social, communicative, and behavioral...
Until recently best estimate prevalence rates for autism spectrum disorders (ASD) were 0.5/1,000 for autism and 2.0/1,000 for the broader spectrum. Three recent studies have suggested a significantly higher prevalence rate for ASD of 6.0/1,000 (mean 95 % CI = 4.8-8.0). Possible determinants...
Prevalence estimates of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) point to geographic and socioeconomic disparities in identification and diagnosis. Estimating national prevalence rates can limit understanding of local disparities, especially in rural areas where disproportionately higher rates of poverty and decreased he...
(within county) specification. The fixed-effects regressions test showed that county-level birth cohorts exposed to high levels of precipitation, relative to the county mean, when younger than 3 years had higher autism prevalence rates relative to the county mean. That we find statistically ...
The main instruments used were the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised, Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham-IV Rating Scale, and the Adaptive Behavior Assessment System-II. Results: High rates of ASD and ADHD were found: 17 (42%) and 14 (34%) of the 41 ...
