ABSTRACT
Feeding problems during childhood have been described over time by various authors. In 2013, Avoi dant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) was included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Ma nual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition (DSM-5), as a new diagnosis within the Feeding and Eating di sorders, to describe a group of patients with avoidant or restrictive eating behaviors unrelated to body image disorder or weight loss desire. ARFID may appear as significant weight loss and/or nutritional deficiency and/or a marked interference in psychosocial functioning. There are three forms of pre sentation, which can co-occur or occur independently. The first one includes children with sensory aversions (selective), who reject certain foods due to their taste, texture, smell, or shape; the second one includes those children with poor appetite or limited intake (limited intake); and the third one includes those children who reject certain foods or stop eating as a result of a traumatic event (aversi- ve). Due to the recent incorporation of ARFID into the DSM-5, there is a lack of information regar ding its treatment. The purpose of this review is to clarify diagnostic criteria and to describe targeted management and treatment interventions with a multidisciplinary approach, without deepening on the treatment of organic medical causes.

INTRODUCTION: Screening for Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) using the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers, Revised with Follow-up (M-CHAT-R/F) increases early detection, allowing early interventions and improving prognosis. This tool is part of the management in case of suspected ASD in several clinical guidelines. The objective of this article was to conduct the concurrent and discrimi nant validation and the reliability analysis of M-CHAT-R/F in the Chilean population. PATIENTS AND METHOD: This is the second stage of the cross-cultural adaptation of cross-sectional design. M-CHAT- R/F was applied to a sample of 20 children with suspected ASD and 100 randomly selected healthy control children, aged between 16-30 months. Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS-2), considered as reference, was applied to the 20 patients of the clinical sample, to 20 children of the healthy control sample and to those cases of the healthy control sample with M-CHAT-R/F positive. Cronbach alpha was calculated, as well as M-CHAT-R/F and ADOS-2 correlation, sensitivity, and specificity analyses. RESULTS: In the healthy sample, M-CHAT-R/F was positive in two patients, with one of them positive and the other one negative for ASD with ADOS-2 test. In the clinical sample, M- CHAT-R/F was positive in all cases, three of them were negative in the ADOS-2 test. The Alfa relia bility of M-CHART-R/T was 0,889, the discriminant sensitivity and specificity were 100% and 98%, and the concurrent ones were 100% and 87.5% respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The Chilean M-CHAT- R/F version was reliable, sensitive and specific, similar to the original test, which opens the possibility for its use in clinical samples and for research. Validating M-CHAT-R/F is an ongoing process which must be further developed.

INTRODUCCIÓN: El tamizaje de los Trastornos del Espectro Autista (TEA) mediante el Modified Chec klist for Autism in Toddlers - Revised with Follow Up (M-CHAT-R/F) aumenta la detección precoz, posibilitando intervenciones tempranas y mejorando el pronóstico. Este instrumento es parte del algoritmo de manejo ante la sospecha de TEA en diversas guías clínicas. El objetivo fue realizar la validación concurrente, discriminante y el análisis de confiabilidad del M-CHAT-R/F en una pobla ción chilena. PACIENTES Y MÉTODO: Esta es la segunda etapa de la adaptación transcultural, de diseño transversal. Se aplicó M-CHAT-R/F a una muestra de 20 niños con sospecha de TEA y 100 niños de control sano seleccionados al azar, de 16-30 meses de edad. Se aplicó Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS-2), considerado como referencia, a los 20 pacientes de la muestra clínica, a 20 niños de la muestra de control sano y a aquellos casos de la muestra de control sano con M-CHAT-R/F po sitivo. Se calculó alfa de Cronbach, análisis de correlación de M-CHAT-R/F y ADOS-2 y sensibilidad y especificidad. RESULTADOS: En el grupo de control sano, M-CHAT-R/F resultó alterado en 2 pacien tes, siendo uno positivo y otro negativo para TEA con ADOS-2. En muestra clínica el M-CHAT-R/F fue positivo en todos, con test de ADOS-2 negativo en 3 casos. La confiabilidad Alfa del M-CHAT- R/F fue =0,889, la sensibilidad y especificidad discriminante de 100 y 98% y la concurrente 100% y 87,5% respectivamente. CONCLUSIÓN: M-CHAT-R/F en su versión chilena resultó fiable, sensible y específico de manera similar al original, lo cual abre la posibilidad de su utilización en población clínica y para investigación. La validación es un proceso continuo que se debe profundizar.
