Abstract Research studying aging in adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is growing, but longitudinal work needed. Autistic have increased risk of dementia, altered hippocampal volumes and fornix integrity, verbal memory difficulties compared neurotypical (NT) adults. This study examined middle‐age ASD versus a matched NT group, findings cross‐sectional age effects across broad adult range. Participants were 194 ( n = 106; 74 male) without 88; 52 ASD, ages 18–71. 45; 40–70 range) two...
The constituent nanofibrils of bacterial cellulose are interest to many researchers because their purity and excellent mechanical properties. Mechanisms disrupt the network structure (BC) isolate (BCN) limited. This work focuses on liquid-phase dispersions BCN in a range organic solvents. It builds disperse similarly intractable nanomaterials, such as single-walled carbon nanotubes, where optimum dispersion is seen for solvents whose surface energies close energy nanomaterial; shown similar...
The male preponderance in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) led to the hypothesis that aspects of female biology are protective against ASD. Females with ASD (ASD-F) report more compensatory behaviors (i.e. "camouflaging") overcome ASD-related social differences, which may be a mechanism protection. No studies have examined sex-related brain pathways supporting camouflaging ASD-F, despite its potential inform mechanisms underlying sex bias. We used functional connectivity (FC) investigate...
<h3>Background:</h3> Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) alleviates depression and anxiety in adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD); however, underlying therapeutic neural mechanisms mindfulness-specific effects have yet to be elucidated. <h3>Methods:</h3> We randomly assigned ASD MBSR or social support/education (SE). They completed questionnaires that assessed depression, anxiety, mindfulness traits, autistic traits executive functioning abilities as well a self-reflection...
Research aimed at understanding cognitive and brain aging in adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is growing, but critical longitudinal work scant. Adults ASD struggle tasks involving visual memory compared neurotypical (NT). This may be related to differences size or integrity of the hippocampus its’ primary structural connectivity pathway, fornix. The aim this study was describe preliminary findings trajectories short- long-term abilities middle-age older ASD, matched NT adults. We...
Abstract Adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) experience high rates of depression and anxiety, some evidence suggests mindfulness‐based stress reduction (MBSR) is effective in reducing these symptoms. However, the neural mechanisms symptom alleviation, benefit MBSR beyond education/support groups are unknown. Maladaptive forms self‐reflection linked to ASD, depression, anxiety. In this pilot study, we hypothesized (a) would reduce anxiety adults ASD (b) a mechanism alleviation be...
Abstract Background The perimenopausal transition is accompanied by psychiatric symptoms in over 10% of women. Symptoms commonly include depressed mood and anhedonia less psychosis. Psychiatric have been linked to the depletion and/or variability circulating estradiol, estradiol treatment reduces psychosis some Estrogen fluctuations may disrupt function mesolimbic reward system women, leading like or Perimenopausal Effects Estradiol on Anhedonia Psychosis Study (PEEPs) a mechanistic clinical...
Background: Approximately 50,000 U.S. teens with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) become adults every year, however little is known regarding how age influences social cognition and if men women ASD are differentially impacted across the adult lifespan. Social declines non-linearly in neurotypical (NT) adults. Moreover, sex differences have been observed on RME tasks NT but not ASD, although aging effects largely ignored. Objective: This cross-sectional study examined influence of compared to...
Abstract In its Sixth Assessment Report Cycle (AR6), the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) aims to strengthen communication of products. As only mandatory part IPCC reports specifically targeting a lay audience, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) provide an opportunity for broader key topics. AR6 has released three Special Reports that include FAQs, varying in number and structure, as well approach taken develop them. Using these this essay, we take stock current efforts...

Abstract The male preponderance in autism led to the hypothesis that aspects of female biology are protective against autism. Females with report engaging more compensatory behaviors (i.e., “camouflaging”) overcome autism-related social differences, which may be a downstream result pathways. No studies have examined sex-related brain pathways supporting camouflaging females autism, despite its potential inform mechanisms underlying sex bias This case-control design included 45...
