Abstract
Resume Contexte et objectif L’augmentation de prevalence des troubles envahissants du developpement est documentee dans la litterature internationale, mais les donnees restent parcellaires en France. L’objectif est d’analyser l’evolution recente des prevalences des TED a partir des donnees des deux registres de population en France. Methode Ces deux structures enregistrent tous les cas de troubles envahissants du developpement chez les enfants residant dans les departements concernes au cours de leur huitieme annee de vie, apres accord parental. Les donnees sont recueillies a partir des dossiers medicaux disponibles dans les differentes sources de donnees et les diagnostics sont codes selon la Classification internationale des maladies (CIM10). Les donnees presentees ici concernent les enfants nes entre 1995 et 2002. Les taux de prevalence ont ete calcules pour 10 000 enfants residant dans leur huitieme annee dans chaque departement. Resultats Le taux de prevalence global dans la huitieme annee de vie sur l’ensemble de la periode etait de 31,9 pour 10 000 enfants en Haute-Garonne et de 34,9 pour 10 000 en Isere, avec une tendance a l’augmentation entre 1995 et 2002 significative en Haute-Garonne. Le sex-ratio etait de 3,8 et 3,5 respectivement en Haute-Garonne et en Isere. Dans les deux departements, environ la moitie des enfants presentait une deficience intellectuelle associee. Conclusion Les donnees issues des deux registres francais sont tout a fait comparables et montrent des taux de prevalence des troubles envahissants du developpement qui se situent dans la fourchette basse de ceux publies dans la litterature internationale.

Low but Increasing Prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorders in a French Area from Register-Based Data.

TL;DR: Register-based prevalence rates of childhood autism, Asperger’s syndrome (AS) and other autism spectrum disorders (ASD) were calculated among children aged 7 years old of the 1997–2003 birth cohorts, living in four counties in France.

Signes précoces d’autisme : d’où vient-on ? Où va-t-on ?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the implications of the diagnosis of autism on the trajectories of the parents of a child in terms of the parent-infant interaction and the relationship between the parent and the child.

Human Brain Imaging of Autism Spectrum Disorders

TL;DR: Dysfunction of the serotonergic and cholinergic systems has been identified in subgroups of people with autism spectrum disorders to support the hypotheses that these systems play a role in the pathophysiology of autistic spectrum disorders.

Prevalence of disorders of the autism spectrum in a population cohort of children in South Thames: the Special Needs and Autism Project (SNAP).

TL;DR: Prevalence of autism and related ASDs is substantially greater than previously recognised and services in health, education, and social care will need to recognise the needs of children with some form of ASD, who constitute 1% of the child population.

Epidemiology of pervasive developmental disorders.

TL;DR: There is evidence that the broadening of the concept, the expansion of diagnostic criteria, the development of services, and improved awareness of the condition have played a major role in explaining this increase, although it cannot be ruled out that other factors might have also contributed to that trend.

Prevalence of autism spectrum disorders in a total population sample

TL;DR: It is suggested that rigorous screening and comprehensive population coverage are necessary to produce more accurate ASD prevalence estimates and underscore the need for better detection, assessment, and services.

Prevalence of autism in a US metropolitan area.

TL;DR: The rate of autism found in this study was higher than the rates from studies conducted in the United States during the 1980s and early 1990s, but it was consistent with those of more recent studies.

Pervasive developmental disorders in preschool children.

TL;DR: The authors' results suggest that rates of PDD are higher than previously reported, and attention is nevertheless drawn to the important needs of a substantial minority of preschool children.
