CONCLUSION: There is a need for enhancing nurse faculty comfort level, training, and preparation for teaching about or providing care for individuals with ASD.

There are over 100 large-effect genes strongly associated with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), yet advancing from risk genes to the discovery of common biological pathways and pharmacological targets remains a central challenge. Scalable non-mammalian systems, including Caenorhabditis elegans (roundworm), Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly), Danio rerio (zebrafish), and Xenopus tropicalis (frog), provide critical advantages for the functional analysis of ASD genes due to their amenability to...

CONCLUSIONS: This prospective study suggests that autistic-like traits in BD are associated with persistently poorer role/social functioning over time rather than differences in recovery trajectories. Assessing autistic-like traits may help identify patients at risk of poorer functioning and guide tailored psychosocial interventions.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is associated with neural activity that leads to irregular patterns of early brain development. Although a wide range of conventional approaches exists, these methods rely on observation and behavioural assessment, which often causes ambiguous results. Thereby, EfficientNet-B0, ResNet-50 and Vision Transformer with the Falco-Ninja Optimization Algorithm (EVF-FaNOA) are introduced. Initially, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images are obtained from the dataset, and...

This study examined the cultural, familial, educational, and technological factors influencing how Arab parents of non-speaking autistic children understand and implement augmentative alternative communication (AAC) within their sociocultural context in the Arab community in Israel. Although AAC can enhance communication, participation, and emotional expression, it remains underused in many minority and multilingual communities. Using a qualitative, phenomenologically informed design and...

During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitalizations decreased due to the reallocation of health care resources to support pandemic mitigation efforts and social changes in risk exposure, including preventable hospitalizations for the escalation of conditions that could be better treated within primary care. The purpose of this study was to examine changes in and characteristics of preventable hospitalizations over the COVID-19 period for patients withand without autism using 2019 to 2021 data from...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This paper covers some of the key findings on the topic of genetic influences in autism over the last 12-18 months, which consist of significant conceptual shifts and new insights from recent technological advances.

Functional connectivity (FC) analysis using resting-state fMRI is widely applied to study brain organization in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, variability in FC estimation, limited sample sizes, and high-dimensional feature spaces often produce unstable and over-optimistic machine-learning results, highlighting the need for rigorous methodological benchmarking. We propose a neuroinformatics framework for systematic evaluation of multiple FC measures under small-sample rs-fMRI...

Differences in reward processing repeatedly have been implicated in autism. Still, the contexts in which these differences occur (e.g., social and non-social) and the extent to which they relate to autistic traits remain poorly understood. Notably, current frameworks for reward processing have yet to describe the impacts of reward processing differences on broader cognitive domains in autism. Evidence from studies of neurotypical individuals and non-human primates shows that reward has...

CONCLUSIONS: The diagnostic yield observed in this cohort is consistent with previous trio-based WES studies of ASD. The findings support the clinical utility of WES for the genetic evaluation of ASD and underscore the need for expanded genomic studies in African populations.

CONCLUSIONS: tDCS is the most efficacious standalone intervention for ASD social cognitive deficits. We recommend tDCS or TBS clinically and advocate a synergistic paradigm integrating NIBS neural priming with digital training. However, future large-scale, rigorous RCTs are required to further validate both these standalone modalities and the proposed combined protocols.

INTRODUCTION: The interests of autistic individuals have traditionally been described as circumscribed and restricted, serving the functions of self-regulation by reducing prediction error. Historically, this may have seemed reasonable when applied to autistic children and adults with intellectual disability. The current study investigated the restrictiveness and function of focused interests of autistic adults with typical intellectual ability.

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) present with complex, multi-domain functional challenges that single-domain intervention approaches fail to address adequately. This retrospective case report, with prospective follow-up from age 7 years, applies CanChild's F-words and the F-words Lens Tool to examine intervention planning and developmental outcomes across a five-year trajectory for an eight-year-old autistic girl with co-occurring hypotonia and joint hypermobility. For each...

CONCLUSIONS: The developed hybrid model is positioned as an AI-assisted pre-screening and early-referral support tool, not as a replacement for clinical evaluation. By combining reliability-oriented parallel fusion with explainable AI, the system supports clinical transparency and offers a scalable pathway for early ASD risk indication.
