Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders which are etiologically heterogeneous. Chromosomal microarray is now recommended as the first-tier clinical diagnostic test for ASD. We performed chromosomal microarray in 16 Thai patients with ASD using an Illumina HumanCytoSNP-12 v2.1 array and found one case with uniparent...

... the age of 5 years, he was assessed using the Autism Diagnosis Observation Schedule (ADOS)-Module 1 by a developmental pediatrician. His scores for communication were 4 (cutoff 4), 8 for reciprocal social interaction (cutoff 7), and 1 for repetitive behaviors (Supplementary Table S1). The scores were consistent with a diagnosis of autistic disorder. ...Context 2
... case adds to the pool of milder phenotypes in AS patients with UPD compared to a typical AS patients with deletions. A summary of the clinical features of our case and other AS cases with UPD is shown in Table 1. Of note, ataxic gait and frequent laughter/happy demeanor as consistent (100%) clinical features of patients with AS as claimed in a previous report (Williams et al., 2006) were not present in all AS patients with UPD in our literature review (Fridman et al., 2002;Poyatos et al., 2002;Thompson and Bolton, 2003;Varela et al., 2004;Saitoh et al., 2005;Bonati et al., 2007;Depienne et al., 2009;Horváth et al., 2013;Luk and Lo, 2016), supporting our hypothesis that AS resulting from UPD can manifest as a milder AS phenotype. ...Similar publications
