Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized, Controlled Trial of an Intervention for Toddlers With Autism: The Early Start Denver Model
Geraldine Dawson,Sally J. Rogers,Jeffrey Munson,Milani Smith,Jamie Winter,Jessica Greenson,Amy L. Donaldson,Jennifer A. Varley +7 more
TL;DR: This is the first randomized, controlled trial to demonstrate the efficacy of a comprehensive developmental behavioral intervention for toddlers with ASD for improving cognitive and adaptive behavior and reducing severity of ASD diagnosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autism genome-wide copy number variation reveals ubiquitin and neuronal genes

Schellenberg,Hakon Hakonarson +58 more
TL;DR: Several new susceptibility genes encoding neuronal cell-adhesion molecules, including NLGN1 and ASTN2, were enriched with CNVs in ASD cases compared to controls, and duplications 55 kilobases upstream of complementary DNA AK123120 indicate that these two important gene networks expressed within the central nervous system may contribute to the genetic susceptibility of ASD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Common genetic variants on 5p14.1 associate with autism spectrum disorders

TL;DR: The results implicate neuronal cell-adhesion molecules in the pathogenesis of ASDs, and represent, to the authors' knowledge, the first demonstration of genome-wide significant association of common variants with susceptibility to ASDs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Brain structural abnormalities in young children with autism spectrum disorder.
B. F. Sparks,Seth D. Friedman,Dennis W. W. Shaw,Elizabeth Aylward,Denise R. Echelard,Alan A. Artru,Kenneth R. Maravilla,Jay N. Giedd,Jeffrey Munson,Geraldine Dawson,Stephen R. Dager +10 more
TL;DR: Structural findings suggest abnormal brain developmental processes early in the clinical course of autism, and research currently is underway to better elucidate mechanisms underlying mechanisms underlying these structural abnormalities and their longitudinal progression.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parenting stress and psychological functioning among mothers of preschool children with autism and developmental delay
Annette Estes,Jeffrey Munson,Geraldine Dawson,Elizabeth Koehler,Xiao-Hua Zhou,Robert D. Abbott +5 more
TL;DR: Clinical services aiming to support parents should include a focus on reducing problem behaviors in children with developmental disabilities, particularly autism spectrum disorders.
