The purpose of this study was to assess the validity of the diagnosis of childhood autism in the Danish Psychiatric Central Register (DPCR) by reviewing medical records from 499 of 504 total children with childhood autism born 1990-1999. Based on review of abstracted behaviors recorded in case records from child psychiatric hospitals, case status determination was performed using a standardized coding scheme. In 499 children diagnosed with childhood autism in the DPCR, the diagnosis could be confirmed in 469 children (94%). Of the 30 non-confirmed cases, five were classified by the reviewers as non-autistic cases and the remaining 25 cases were either classified with another ASD diagnosis or the specific diagnosis was not possible to determine.
这项研究的目的是通过审查丹麦精神病学中央登记处(DPCR)中 504 名儿童自闭症患者中的 499 名患者的医疗记录,来评估 DPCR 对儿童自闭症的诊断的有效性。本研究基于对儿童精神病院病例记录中记录的行为进行抽象审查,通过使用标准化的编码方案来确定病例的状态。在 DPCR 中诊断为自闭症的 499 名儿童中,469 名儿童(94%)的诊断得到了确认。在 30 例未确认的病例中,审查员将其中 5 例归类为非自闭症病例,其余 25 例病例则被归类为另一种 ASD 诊断,或者无法确定具体的诊断。
