Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to investigate the prevalence of ADHD and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in individuals with dystrophinopathy compared to the general population.
- A retrospective chart review was conducted at a neuromuscular clinic, revealing ADHD prevalence at 18.40% and ASD at 12.73%, both significantly higher than general population rates.
- The findings indicated a connection between ADHD and family history, but no significant link was found between ADHD prevalence and steroid use; future research will use validated assessments to further explore these conditions.
Objective: To evaluate the proposed link between the administration of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and the development of autism.
Data Sources: A literature search utilizing MEDLINE (1966-November 2003), with the key terms measles, mumps, rubella, and autism, was conducted. Review of the references listed in the articles identified was also performed.
