Abstract Oculomotor characteristics, including accuracy, timing, and sensorimotor processing, are considered sensitive intermediate phenotypes for understanding the etiology of neurodevelopmental conditions, such as autism ADHD. characteristics have predominantly been studied separately in Despite high rates co-occurrence between these only one study has investigated oculomotor processes among those with co-occurring + Four hundred five ( n = 405; 226 males) Australian children adolescents...

Pathogenic variants in DDX3X are associated with neurodevelopmental disorders. Communication impairments commonly reported, yet specific speech and language diagnoses have not been delineated, preventing prognostic counseling targeted therapies. Here, we characterized 38 female individuals, aged 1.69-24.34 years, pathogenic likely (missense, n = 13; nonsense, 12; frameshift, 7; splice site, 3; synonymous, 2; deletion, 1). Standardized speech, language, motor, social, adaptive behavior...

Abstract Aim To examine the adaptive behaviour profiles of children with monogenic neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) to determine whether syndrome‐specific or transdiagnostic approaches provide a better understanding behavioural phenotypes these NDDs. Method This cross‐sectional study included parents and caregivers 243 (48% female) individuals (age range = 1–25 years; mean 8 years 10 months, SD 5 months) genetically confirmed NDDs ( CDK13 , DYRK1A FOXP2 KAT6A KANSL1 SETBP1 BRPF1 DDX3X )....

A short period of eye-tracking can produce large amounts data, making analysis challenging, particularly for clinical applications. Automated methods extracting basic oculomotor features saccades, fixation, or blinking are available. For more in-depth analysis, manual cleaning and processing is often required. This time-consuming variable across individuals over time, which limits scalability utility, even if identified markers have high potential significance. Automation provides an...

Anxiety is a major complication in Parkinson's disease (PD). Many PD patients experience clinically significant anxiety not meeting Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) disorder criteria. This atypical (anxiety otherwise specified [NOS]) often under-recognized its diagnosis underdeveloped.This study aimed to identify the demographic, psychiatric, clinical characteristics NOS PD.A cross-sectional design studied convenience sample 184 without dementia recruited from...

Abstract Objective To evaluate the efficacy and costs of a brief, group-delivered parenting intervention for families children with eczema. Methods A randomized controlled trial design was used. Families attending Queensland Children’s Hospital from community (n = 257) were assessed eligibility (child 2–10 years, diagnosed eczema, prescribed topical corticosteroids). who consented to participate (N 59) at baseline clinician-rated eczema severity, parent-reported symptom...

Abstract Speech and language impairments are central features of CDK13 -related disorder. While pathogenic variants have been associated with childhood apraxia speech (CAS), a systematic characterisation communication has not conducted. Here we examined speech, language, non-verbal skills, social behaviour health development in 41 individuals CDK-13 related disorder (male = 22, median-age 7 years 1 month, range 1–25 years; 33 novel). Most participants used augmentative alternative (AAC)...
