The delivery of services to children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) was disrupted during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which may have affected child functioning and caregiver quality of life (QoL). This study examined changes in service intensity, child adaptive functioning, and caregiver QoL during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants were 146 caregivers (87% mothers) of children with ASD (M age = 8.

Article Synopsis
  • The review discusses primary benign mesenchymal tumors of the pancreas, which are very rare and often diagnosed only after surgery.
  • These tumors are usually identified through postoperative histology, leading to significant pancreatic surgery even for benign cases.
  • The summary includes limited findings from abdominal imaging and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), with some case reports demonstrating modern ultrasound techniques used for diagnosis.

Article Synopsis
  • The review discusses mesenchymal pancreatic tumors that have intermediate biological behavior and how they appear in imaging studies.
  • These tumors are rare, much like their benign and malignant counterparts, and are typically diagnosed after surgery through histology.
  • The text also briefly summarizes the limited information available on ultrasound and endoscopic ultrasound findings, including the use of contrast-enhanced techniques for these pancreatic lesions.

Article Synopsis
  • - This review details rare malignant pancreatic lesions, particularly focusing on the imaging characteristics of uncommon epithelial tumors like solid pseudopapillary neoplasm and acinar cell carcinoma.
  • - It highlights how these tumors can be visualized using ultrasound, endoscopic ultrasound (EUS), and contrast-enhanced techniques.
  • - The overview emphasizes that pancreatic tumors are diverse, and not all are the common types like ductal adenocarcinoma or neuroendocrine tumors.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is diagnosed using comprehensive behavioral information. Neuroimaging offers additional information but lacks clinical utility for diagnosis. This study investigates whether multi-forms of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast can be used individually and in combination to produce a categorical classification of young individuals with ASD.
