ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To verify if there are characteristic behaviors of the different diagnosis included in the autism spectrum according to the Differential Assessment of Autism and Other Developmental Disorders (DAADD) and to the Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC). METHOD: Participants were 45 individuals and their respective speech-language therapists. All therapists are graduate students working with the children for at least 1 year. This time was considered sufficient to the therapists to have the information required by the DAADD questionnaire. It is comprised by 3 protocols specifically designed to children with 2 to 4 years, 4 to 6 years and 6 to 8 years, the same criteria used to separate the research groups, G1, G2 and G3, respectively. Data referring to the ABC were retrieved from the subject's files at the Laboratório de Investigação Fonoaudiológica nos Distúrbios do Espectro do Autismo (Research Laboratory on Language Disorders in the Autism Spectrum) of the School of Medicine, Universidade de São Paulo, where it is routinely applied during the annual assessment. RESULTS: Answers to the different areas of DAADD are similar to the different areas of ABC. These data show data the diagnosis by DAADD is easier in older children. Although there is no significant difference, the large occurrence of Rett's syndrome diagnosis according to the DAADD was associated to higher risk for autism according to the ABC in G1. With increasing age this tendency decreases and either in G2 and G3 Autism is the most frequent diagnosis. CONCLUSION: Although the results of both questionnaires tend to agree more with increasing age, the DAADD is more sensitive in the different ages while the ABC if more specific only to older children. .


OBJETIVO: Verificar a existência de comportamentos característicos de diferentes quadros incluídos nos Distúrbios do Espectro do Autismo identificados segundo o Differential Assessment of Autism and Other Developmental Disorders (DAADD) e a Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC). MÉTODO: Participaram desta pesquisa 45 indivíduos autistas e suas respectivas terapeutas. Todas as terapeutas são fonoaudiólogas pós-graduandas e atendiam os sujeitos há pelo menos um ano, tempo considerado suficiente para fornecer as informações solicitadas pelo DAADD. Ele é composto por três protocolos especificamente dirigidos a crianças entre dois e quatro anos de idade, quatro e seis anos, e seis e oito anos, o mesmo critério usado para dividir os grupos da pesquisa em G1, G2 e G3, respectivamente. Os dados referentes à ABC foram retirados dos protocolos dos sujeitos, registrados no acervo do Laboratório de Investigação Fonoaudiológica nos Distúrbios do Espectro do Autismo da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo, uma vez que ele é regularmente aplicado a todos os pacientes durante o processo de avaliação anual. RESULTADOS: As respostas do DAADD, por área, se aproximam das respostas do ABC, também por área. Os dados evidenciam que, conforme a idade aumenta, é mais fácil identificar o diagnóstico pelo DAADD. Apesar de não haver diferença estatisticamente significativa, a grande ocorrência do diagnóstico de SR obtida no DAADD associou-se à alta probabilidade no ABC para o G1. Conforme aumenta a idade, essa prevalência diminui, sendo o autismo mais prevalente no item alta probabilidade tanto para o G2 quanto para o G3. CONCLUSÃO: Apesar de os protocolos serem mais concordantes conforme aumentam as idades, por faixa etária, o DAADD se mostra mais ...

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: observar la estabilidad del diagnóstico de trastorno generalizado del desarrollo (TGD) de la cognición y del lenguaje en una muestra de niños menores de 5 años. Material y Método: 32 niños (30 varones, 2 niñas) con diagnóstico de TGD (realizado con CARS, criterios de DSM IV y criterio clínico). Evaluación del desarrollo con CAT. Dos años después reevaluación con ADI-R, ADOS, criterios del DSM IV y criterio clínico. Cognición: Test Raven. Resultados: En la primera evaluación el diagnóstico se realizó a los 42 meses ± 11 (25-63). TA 23 (71%), TGDNE 9 (28%). Desarrollo: 4 niños normales; 14 retraso, y 14 no evaluables. Lenguaje: 13 (40%) verbales, y 19 (60%) no. En la reevaluación la edad fue de 76 ± 15 meses (50 a 114). Los diagnósticos fueron: TA 20 (62,5%), TGDNE 8 (25%), retardo mental 1 (3%), no cumplen criterios para TGD 3 (9,3%) 1 ADHD, 2 signos residuales en conducta. Evaluación cognitiva: normal 10 (31%); retraso 19 (59%); 3 (9.4%) no accedieron. Lenguaje: 65% (21/32) verbales. Del grupo total, 25 (78%) niños mantuvieron el diagnóstico, 28 (87%) permanecieron dentro de la categoría TGD. En cambio sólo el 37% mantuvo el diagnóstico cognitivo. Conclusiones: la estabilidad del diagnóstico de TA fue alta en un período entre 2 y 5 años. La estabilidad de la cognición fue baja (AU)


Objective: To assess the stability of the diagnosis of pervasive developmental disorders (PDD) of cognitive and language development in a series of children under 5 years of age. Material and Methods: 32 children (30 male, 2 female) with a diagnosis of PDD (made based on CARS, DSM IV criteria, and clinical evaluation). Developmental evaluation was by CAT. The children were reevaluated two years later using the ADI-R, ADOS, DSM IV criteria, and clinical criteria. Cognitive development was measured by Raven's Test. Results: On first evaluation, the diagnosis was made at 42 months ± 11 (25-63). Autistic disorder (AD) 23 (71%), PDDNOS 9 (28%). Cognitive development: normal 4, delayed 14, and 14 could not be evaluated. Language development: 13 (40%) verbal and 19 (60%) not verbal. Reevaluation took place at 76 ± 15 months (50 a 114). Diagnoses were: AD 20 (62.5%), PDD-NOS 8 (25%), mental retardation 1 (3%), did not meet PDD criteria 3 (9.3%) ADHD 1, residual signs in behavior 2. Cognitive development: normal 10 (31%); delayed 19 (59%); 3 were not evaluated (9.4%). Language development: 65% (21/32) verbal. Overall, the diagnosis was maintained in 25 (78%) children; 28 (87%) children stayed within the PDD category. However, the cognitive diagnosis was maintained in only 37%. Conclusions: firmness of the diagnosis of AD was high in the period between 2 and 5 years of age. Diagnosis of cognitive development was not stable (AU)

ABSTRACT

Se analizaron los ítems que componen la descripción sintomática del Trastorno Autista y el Trastorno de Asperger en el DSM-IV. Como resultado de esta revisión se halló una gran cantidad de criterios diagnósticos que se superponen entre ambos trastornos, lo que lleva a la imposibilidad de hacer un diagnóstico diferencial claro, cuestionando así la solidez de la función clasificatoria del manual. La función clínica de esta distinción diagnóstica es analizada a través de un caso clínico, en el que se muestra la falta de utilidad de la misma al momento de instrumentar estrategias de abordaje para un caso de Trastorno Autista. Se concluye que debe relativizarse el valor estadístico de los datos obtenidos por medio de esta herramienta clasificatoria, y que, de acuerdo a la forma de abordaje terapéutico que refiere el autor, el diagnóstico de cualquiera de los dos trastornos no modifica la estrategia general de trabajo.


Symptomatic description of what the DSM-IV understands for Asperger's and Autistic Disorder was analyzed. As a result of this revision there was found that a great amount of diagnostic criteria overlap, and lead to the impossibility to make a clear differential diagnosis. The classifying function is, thus, criticized. The clinical function of this diagnostic distinction is analyzed through a clinical case. It is shown its lack of utility when a therapeutic method should be implemented in a case of Autistic Disorder. It is concluded that the statistical value of the results obtained by using this classificatory instrument should be examined due to this lack of distinction. Also, according to the therapeutic approach witch the author makes reference, it is shown that the diagnostic of any both disorders does not modify the general intervention strategy.

ABSTRACT

A categoria "transtorno invasivos do desenvolvimento" inclui o autismo, a síndrome de Asperger, a síndrome de Rett, o transtorno desintegrativo da infância e uma categoria residual denominada transtornos invasivos do desenvolvimento sem outra especificação. Nesta revisão, a síndrome de Rett e o transtorno desintegrativo da infância, que são categorias bem definidas, serão discutidas, assim como as categorias não tão bem definidas que foram incluídas no grupo transtornos invasivos do desenvolvimento sem outra especificação. Diferentes propostas de categorização têm sido feitas, algumas baseadas em abordagem fenomenológica descritiva, outras baseadas em outras perspectivas teóricas, tais como a neuropsicologia. As propostas atuais são apresentadas e discutidas, seguidas por avaliações críticas sobre as vantagens e desvantagens desses conceitos.
