简要总结
The goal of this observational study is to compare the developmental trajectories of prosocial behaviors and functional network connections in infants and toddlers at high and low risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The main questions it aims to answer are what the differences in prosocial behaviors and related brain network connections between infants/toddlers at high and low risk of ASD are. Participants will receive developmental and social communicational assessments (Griffiths Mental Developmental Scales, Peabody Developmental Motor Scales, The Communication and Symbolic Behavior Scales Developmental Profile Infant-Toddler Checklist), resting-state EEG and MRI in a natural sleeping state.
详细描述
The longitude observational study will be performed to compare the developmental trajectories of prosocial behaviors and functional network connections in infants and toddlers at high and low risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We will follow up the subjects at 3-, 6-, 9-, 12-, 18-, 24-, 30-, and 36-month-old. Clinical diagnosis will be made on 24-month-old or after, with the DSM-5 as the diagnostic criterion.

入选标准
- •Subjects were enrolled as high-risk if they had an older sibling with a clinical diagnosis of ASD confirmed on the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, second edition (ADOS-2) or Autism Diagnostic Interview (ADI-R).
- •Subjects were enrolled in the low-risk group if they had an older sibling without evidence of ASD and no family history of a first or second-degree relative with ASD.
排除标准
- •diagnosis or physical signs strongly suggestive of a genetic condition or syndrome (e.g., fragile X syndrome) reported to be associated with ASDs;
- •a significant medical or neurological condition affecting growth, development or cognition (e.g., CNS infection, seizure disorder, congenital heart disease);
- •sensory impairment such as vision or hearing loss;
- •low birth weight (<2000 grams) or prematurity (<37 weeks gestation);
- •possible perinatal brain injury from exposure to in-utero exogenous compounds reported to likely affect the brain adversely in at least some individuals (e.g., alcohol, selected prescription medications);
- •contraindication for MRI (e.g., metal implants);
- •a family history of intellectual disability, psychosis, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder in a first-degree relative.
研究组 & 干预措施
low-risk group

干预措施: Do not take any interventions (Other)
high-risk group
Subjects in the case group have one or more older siblings with ASD.
干预措施: Do not take any interventions (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Event related potentials (ERPs)
时间窗: At 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36-month-old.
ERPs will be tested using eego™ mylab of ANT Neuro company. Mu suppression、N1/N2、P3/LPP will be compared between children with ASD and typical development.
clinical diagnosis
时间窗: At about 2.5 to 3 year-old.
Clinicians will diagnose subjects as ASD, other neurodevelopmental disorders, or typical developing children, using DSM-5 and ADOS-2.
neurodevelopmental outcome
时间窗: At 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36-month-old.
The neurodevelopmental outcome will be measured by Griffiths Mental Developemental Scales. The developmental ages (DA) are referred from the norms and developmental quotients (DQs) are calculated by DA/CA (chronological age)\*100. Higher DQ indicates better development. The normal range of the DQ is above 70.
Prosocial behaviors
时间窗: At 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36-month-old.
The prosocial behaviors will be measured by different behavior paradigms including helper-and-hinder, crying baby, and Theory of Mind.
nuclear magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)
时间窗: At 6, 12, 18, 24, and 36-month-old.
Cranial MRI data will be collected during subjects are in natural asleep or awake, using uMR 890 3T of United Imaging company.
