Partial trisomy 19p13.3 and partial monosomy 1p36.3: Clinical report and a literature review.

We report on a 15-month-old girl with a deletion of the distal short arm of chromosome 1p36.3, partial trisomy of the short arm of chromosome 19p13.3, growth and developmental delay, and multiple anomalies including microcephaly, bifrontal prominence, obtuse frontonasal angle, short columella, hypertelorism, sacral dimples, and a bicuspid pulmonary valve.

Sensory correlations in autism.

This study examined the relationship between auditory, visual, touch, and oral sensory dysfunction in autism and their relationship to multisensory dysfunction and severity of autism. The Sensory Profile was completed on 104 persons with a diagnosis of autism, 3 to 56 years of age. Analysis showed a significant correlation between the different processing modalities using total scores.

The pattern of sensory processing abnormalities in autism.

The study was undertaken to evaluate the nature of sensory dysfunction in persons with autism. The cross-sectional study examined auditory, visual, oral, and touch sensory processing, as measured by the Sensory Profile, in 104 persons with a diagnosis of autism, 3-56 years of age, gender-and age-matched to community controls. Persons with autism had abnormal auditory, visual, touch, and oral sensory processing that was significantly different from controls.
