The objective of this study was to establish rates of diagnosed autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) in a circumscribed geographical region. The total population born in 1977-1994, living in Göteborg Sweden in 2001, was screened for ASD in registers of the Child Neuropsychiatry Clinic. The minimum registered rate of autistic disorder was 20.5 in 10,000. Other ASDs were 32.9 in 10,000, including 9.2 in 10,000 with Asperger syndrome. Males predominated. In the youngest group (7-12 years), 1.23% had a registered diagnosis of ASD. There was an increase in the rate of diagnosed registered ASD over time; the cause was not determined. The increase tended to level off in the younger age cohort, perhaps due to Asperger syndrome cases missed in screening.
本研究的目的是确定一个特定地理区域内自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）的确诊率。对1977年至1994年出生、2001年居住在瑞典哥德堡的总人口，在儿童神经精神病诊所的登记册中进行ASD筛查。自闭症障碍的最低登记率为万分之20.5。其他ASD为万分之32.9，其中万分之9.2为阿斯伯格综合征。男性占主导。在最年轻的组（7至12岁）中，1.23%有ASD的登记诊断。随着时间推移，确诊登记的ASD率有所上升；原因未确定。在较年轻的年龄队列中，这种上升趋势趋于平稳，可能是由于筛查中遗漏了阿斯伯格综合征病例。
