RESUMO
This study was a systematic review of research using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to examine cognitive characteristics of children with ASD beyond the impact of revisions based on WISC and diagnostic criteria changes. The classic "islets of ability" was found in individuals with full-scale IQs < 100. The "right-descending profiles" were observed among high IQ score individuals. High levels on the Block Design and low Coding levels were consistently found regardless of the variation in intellectual functioning or diagnosis. This review identified patterns of cognitive characteristics in ASD individuals using empirical data that researchers may have previously been aware of, based on their experiences, owing to the increased prevalence of ASD.

We evaluated our clinical data on refrozen-thawed ETs (92 cycles) and found that human embryos were capable of withstanding two freeze-thaw cycles, resulting in normal live births after transfer at a rate similar to that of primary frozen-thawed embryos. This is the first follow-up study to present perinatal outcomes of children born after embryo re-cryopreservation, and our results should encourage clinicians to explore the possibility of performing the refreezing procedure.
