RESUMO

Importance: Preeclampsia has direct influences on a developing fetus and may impact postnatal health, and fetal growth restriction (FGR) is often seen co-occurring with preeclampsia. The development of children born very preterm after preeclampsia diagnosis with and without FGR is not well characterized. Objective: To examine the associations of preeclampsia and FGR with developmental and/or behavioral outcomes in a cohort of very preterm infants. Design, Setting, and Participants: In this cohort study, infants in the prospective Neonatal Neurobehavior and Outcomes in Very Preterm Infants study were enrolled between April 2014 and June 2016 from 9 US university-affiliated neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Eligible infants were born before 30 weeks' gestation. Infants were excluded for any major congenital anomalies and for maternal age younger than 18 years or cognitive impairment impacting the ability to provide informed consent. Data analysis was performed from November 2023 to January 2024. Exposure: Maternal preeclampsia and FGR in very preterm infants. Main Outcomes and Measures: The Bayley-III cognition, motor, and language scores less than 85 (-1 SD) indicated developmental delay. Child Behavior Checklist/Preschool 1.5-5 T-scores greater than or equal to 64 for internalizing, externalizing, or total problems indicated clinical importance. Results: Of 704 infants enrolled, 529 (mean [SD] gestational age, 27.0 [1.9] weeks; 287 male [54.3%]) were studied at 24-month follow-up. A total of 94 infants' mothers had preeclampsia (23.2%), and 46 infants (8.7%) had FGR. In adjusted models, preeclampsia was not associated with Bayley-III (cognitive, B = 3.43 [95% CI, -0.19 to 6.66]; language, B = 3.92 [95% CI, 0.44 to 7.39]; motor, B = 1.86 [95% CI, -1.74 to 5.47]) or Child Behavior Checklist/Preschool 1.5-5 (internalizing, B = -0.08 [95% CI, -2.58 to 2.73]; externalizing, B = 0.69 [95% CI, -1.76 to 3.15]; total, B = 0.21 [95% CI, -2.48 to 2.91]) outcomes. FGR was associated with significantly lower Bayley-III scores (cognitive, B = -8.61 [95% CI, -13.33 to -3.89]; language, B = -8.29 [95% CI, -12.95 to -3.63]; motor, B = -7.60 [95% CI, -12.40 to -2.66]), regardless of preeclampsia status. Conclusions and Relevance: In this cohort study of preterm infants, preeclampsia was not associated with developmental and/or behavioral outcomes, but infants with FGR may be prone to developmental delays. These findings suggest future areas of research for understanding the roles of preeclampsia and FGR separately and together in early child development for preterm infants.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT) is a common pediatric screening tool with mixed accuracy findings. Prior evidence supports M-CHAT screening for developmental concerns, especially in toddlers born preterm. This study examined M-CHAT accuracy in a large, nationwide sample. METHODS: 3393 participants from the Environmental influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) program were included. Harmonized M-CHAT (M-CHAT-H) results were compared with parent-reported autism diagnosis and autism-related characteristics to assess accuracy for term and preterm children, together and separately. Generalized estimating equations, clustering for ECHO cohort and controlling for demographic covariates, were used to examine associations between developmental and behavioral characteristics with M-CHAT-H accuracy. RESULTS: Sensitivity of the M-CHAT-H ranged from 36 to 60%; specificity ranged from 88 to 99%. Positive M-CHAT-H was associated with more developmental delays and behavior problems. Children with severe motor delays and more autism-related problems were more likely to have a false-negative M-CHAT-H. Children with fewer behavior problems and fewer autism-related concerns were more likely to have a false-positive screen. CONCLUSION: The M-CHAT-H accurately detects children at low risk for autism and children at increased risk with moderate accuracy. These findings support use of the M-CHAT-H in assessing autism risk and developmental and behavioral concerns in children. IMPACT: Previous literature regarding accuracy of the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT) is mixed but this study provides evidence that the M-CHAT performs well in detecting children at low risk for autism and consistently detects children with developmental delays and behavioral problems. The M-CHAT moderately detects children at increased risk for autism and remains a useful screening tool. This study examines M-CHAT accuracy in a large-scale, nationwide sample, examining associations between screening accuracy and developmental outcomes. These findings impact pediatric screening for autism, supporting continued use of the M-CHAT while further elucidating the factors associated with inaccurate screens.

RESUMO

Introduction: Societal perceptions and lack of understanding of autism spectrum disorder can be stigmatizing for autistic individuals and their families. This may be particularly the case for individuals who meet criteria for profound autism. Despite the considerable service needs of this marginalized group, there is little data on the prevalence of profound autism, nor on the experiences of those with profound autism and their families. Methods: The current study leveraged a mixed-methods approach to address these gaps. First, the prevalence of profound autism was examined in six samples-three from the United States and three from Western Europe. Second, inductive thematic analysis was used to code interviews from 20 caregivers of profoundly autistic adults. Results: The prevalence of profound autism varied widely across the six samples-from 11% to 48%. There were also notable differences between samples in prevalence by gender, race, and ethnicity. Two overarching themes were identified via inductive thematic analysis: Community Perceptions of Autism and Family Support Needs and Advocacy Challenges. Though caregivers were not directly asked about stigmatization during interviews, 85% of caregivers reported at least one instance of perceived stigma. Discussion: Future research should continue to examine the unique needs and stigmatization experiences of profoundly autistic individuals and their families across the life course.

RESUMO

Importance: Use of the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers, Revised With Follow-Up, a 2-stage parent-report autism risk screening tool, has been questioned due to reports of poor sensitivity and specificity. How this measure captures developmental delays for very preterm infants may provide support for continued use in pediatric care settings. Objective: To determine whether autism risk screening with the 2-stage parent-report autism risk screening tool at age 2 years is associated with behavioral and developmental outcomes at age 3 in very preterm infants. Design, Setting, and Participants: Neonatal Neurobehavior and Outcomes for Very Preterm Infants was a longitudinal, multisite cohort study. Enrollment occurred April 2014 to June 2016, and analyses were conducted from November 2022 to May 2023. Data were collected across 9 university-affiliated neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). Inclusion criteria were infants born less than 30 weeks' gestational age, a parent who could read and speak English and/or Spanish, and residence within 3 hours of the NICU and follow-up clinic. Exposures: Prematurity and use of the 2-stage parent-report autism risk screening tool at age 2 years. Main Outcomes and Measures: Outcomes include cognitive, language, motor composites on Bayley Scales for Infant and Toddler Development, third edition (Bayley-III) and internalizing, externalizing, total problems, and pervasive developmental disorder (PDD) subscale on the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) at age 3 years. Generalized estimating equations tested associations between the 2-stage parent-report autism risk screening tool and outcomes, adjusting for covariates. Results: A total of 467 children (mean [SD] gestational age, 27.1 [1.8] weeks; 243 male [52%]) were screened with the 2-stage parent-report autism risk screening tool at age 2 years, and outcome data at age 3 years were included in analyses. Mean (SD) maternal age at birth was 29 (6) years. A total of 51 children (10.9%) screened positive on the 2-stage parent-report autism risk screening tool at age 2 years. Children with positive screening results were more likely to have Bayley-III composites of 84 or less on cognitive (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 4.03; 95% CI, 1.65-9.81), language (aOR, 5.38; 95% CI, 2.43-11.93), and motor (aOR, 4.74; 95% CI, 2.19-10.25) composites and more likely to have CBCL scores of 64 or higher on internalizing (aOR, 4.83; 95% CI, 1.88-12.44), externalizing (aOR, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.09-6.61), and PDD (aOR, 3.77; 95% CI, 1.72-8.28) scales. Conclusions and Relevance: Results suggest that the 2-stage parent-report autism risk screening tool administered at age 2 years was a meaningful screen for developmental delays in very preterm infants, with serious delays detected at age 3 years.

RESUMO

Objective: A growing body of literature has focused on the neural mechanisms of depression. Our goal was to conduct a systematic review on the white matter microstructural differences in adolescents with depressive disorders vs adolescents without depressive disorders. Method: We searched PubMed and PsycINFO for publications on August 3, 2022 (original search conducted in July 2021). The review was registered on PROSPERO (registration number: CRD42021268200), and the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were followed. Eligible studies were original research papers comparing diffusion tensor/spectrum imaging findings in adolescents with vs without depression (originally ages 12-19 years, later expanded to 11-21 years). Studies were excluded if they focused on depression exclusively in the context of another condition, used only dimensional depressive symptom assessment(s), or used the same dataset as another included publication. Results: The search yielded 575 unique records, of which 14 full-text papers were included (824 adolescents with depression and 686 without depression). The following white matter regions showed significant differences in fractional anisotropy in at least 3 studies: uncinate fasciculus, cingulum, anterior corona radiata, inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus, and corpus callosum (genu and body). Most studies reported decreased, rather than increased, fractional anisotropy in adolescents with depression. Limitations include the possibility for selective reporting bias and risk of imprecision, given the small sample sizes in some studies. Conclusion: Our systematic review suggests aberrant white matter microstructure in limbic-cortical-striatal-thalamic circuits, and the corpus callosum, in adolescents with depression. Future research should focus on developmental trajectories in depression, identifying sources of heterogeneity and integrating findings across imaging modalities.
