BACKGROUND
Between 45 and 95% of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) present sensory features that affect their daily functioning. However, the data in the scientific literature are not conclusive regarding the evolution of sensory features in children with ASD. The main objective of this study was to analyze the sensory features of children within the age of 3-4 (T1) when they received their ASD diagnosis and two years later (T2) when they started school.
METHODS
We conducted a prospective cohort study to assess sensory features in 34 children with ASD over time. The data were collected using a standardized assessment tool, the Sensory Profile.
RESULTS
Our analyses show that sensory features in children with ASD are stable from the age of three to six years. The stability of sensory scores is independent of correction by covariates, such as cognitive level and autism severity scores.
CONCLUSIONS
Children with ASD have sensory features that persist from the time of diagnosis at the age of 3 to 4 years to school age. This persistence of sensory features from an early age underscores the need to support these children and their parents. Sensory features should be detected early and managed to improve functional and psychosocial outcomes.
背景
45%至95%的自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童存在影响其日常功能的感觉特征。然而，科学文献中的数据对于ASD儿童感觉特征的演变尚无定论。本研究的主要目的是分析3至4岁（T1）被诊断为ASD的儿童以及两年后（T2）开始上学时的感觉特征。
方法
我们进行了一项前瞻性队列研究，以评估34名ASD儿童随时间推移的感觉特征。数据通过标准化评估工具“感觉概况”收集。
结果
我们的分析表明，ASD儿童的感觉特征在3至6岁期间是稳定的。感觉分数的稳定性与协变量校正无关，如认知水平和自闭症严重程度分数。
结论
ASD儿童的感觉特征从3至4岁诊断时持续到学龄期。这种早期感觉特征的持续存在凸显了支持这些儿童及其父母的必要性。应尽早发现感觉特征并进行管理，以改善功能和心理社会结果。
