Modulating Temporoparietal Junction Mentalizing-Related Activity in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Using Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
The goal of this observational study is to test the modulation effect of different transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) on the neural network supporting our ability to create mental representations of others (also known as mentalizing) in young adults with autism. The main question it aims to answers is can stimulation …
A Chatbot-based Program to Promote Well-being in Caregivers of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by varying degrees of disability and deviation in social communication, cognitive growth, and emotional expression, as well as the existence of constrained, repetitive patterns of behavior and interests and sensory processing issues. Caring for children with ASD can be a stressful and challenging life …
Investigating Phenotypic, Epigenetic, and NeuroGenetic Traits in Rare and Ultra-rare Neurodevelopmental Disorders (Project PENGUIN)
Rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders, such as Syt-1 or Baker Gordon Syndrome (BAGOS) arise from mutations in genes essential for brain development and function, often disrupting neurotransmission and neuronal connectivity. These conditions present with a wide range of symptoms including developmental delays, seizures, motor and behavioral challenges, and vary widely in …
Evaluation of the Effect of a Psychological Program for Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder and Feeding Difficulties
Feeding difficulties are frequent in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The main goal of this project was to develop TEAlimento, a behavioral program for children ages 3-8 with ASD and feeding difficulties. The intervention combines parent training in group and individual sessions, as well as group sessions with children. …
Multicenter Study of Lumateperone for the Treatment of Irritability Associated With Autism Spectrum Disorder in Pediatric Patients
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in pediatric patients aged 5 to 17 years with a primary diagnosis of irritability associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition Text Revision (DSM-5-TR) and confirmed by the Kiddie Schedule for Affective …
Impact of Equine-Assisted Therapy on the Quality of Life of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
The main objective of this research is to measure the influence of equine-assisted therapy sessions on the quality of life of children with ASD, using the PedsQL™ 4.0 questionnaire as an evaluation tool. The secondary objectives of this study are to measure the influence of these equine therapy sessions on …
Psilocybin for Treatment-Resistant Depression in Autism With Pre-Post Brain and Cognitive Measurement to Understand Mechanisms
We propose a first-of-its-kind open-label clinical trial to investigate the feasibility, tolerability, and safety of administering psilocybin in autistic adults with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). In this study, 20 participants (intellectually able and fluent-speech adults) with autism and co-occurring TRD will receive around 20 hours of manualized psychotherapy that has previously …
Adaptation of the NEAR Cognitive Remediation Method to Child and Adult Autism by Including Social Scenarios and Skills
The investigators currently provide the NEAR method (neuropsychological educational approach to cognitive remediation) for people with neurocognitive difficulties, without distinguishing between ASD and schizophrenia. However, the NEAR method does not address social cognition in the stimulated functions. The aim of this study is to add social scenarios to this neurocognitive …
Efficacy of Bumetanide in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder Guided by Peripheral Blood Biomarkers and Machine Learning Models
The objective of this study is to learn if bumetanide could alleviate the clinical symptoms in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), who has been predicted as high responders to bumetanide via a cytokine-based predictive model. The Eligible ASD participants identified as high responder to bumetanide will be randomly assigned …
