Measurement invariance of the PROMIS emotional distress and subjective well-being domains among autistic and General Population adolescents.

Purpose: Quality of life (QoL) is identified as a clinical and research priority by the autistic community. Researchers have the responsibility to ensure that instruments used to measure QoL do so reliably and accurately among autistic participants.

Methods: Our study evaluated measurement invariance of Emotional Distress (Depression, Anxiety, Anger, Psychological Stress) and Subjective Well-Being (Life Satisfaction, Positive Affect, and Meaning & Purpose) scales of the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) among groups of autistic (N=140, n per scale=132-140) and general population (N=1,224, n per scale=406-411) teenagers (14-17 years).

Missing Ethnicity and Language Information in Healthcare Records of Patients from the Asian Diaspora.

The electronic health record (EHR) should contain information to support culturally responsive care and research; however, the widely used default "Asian" demographic variable in most US social systems (including EHRs) lacks information to describe the diverse experience within the Asian diaspora (e.g., ethnicities, languages).

Screening for Autism: A Review of the Current State, Ongoing Challenges, and Novel Approaches on the Horizon.

Screening for autism is recommended in pediatric primary care. However, the median age of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) diagnosis is substantially higher than the age at which autism can reliably be identified, suggesting room for improvements in autism recognition at young ages, especially for children from minoritized racial and ethnic groups, low-income families, and families who prefer a language other than English. Novel approaches are being developed to utilize new technologies in aiding in autism recognition.

Elevated amyloid beta peptides and total tau in cerebrospinal fluid in individuals with Creatine transporter deficiency.

Background: Creatine transporter deficiency (CTD) is a rare X-linked disorder of creatine transport caused by pathogenic variants in (Xq28). The disorder is marked by developmental delay, especially speech delay. The biomarkers Aβ40, Aβ42 and total tau are abnormal in Alzheimer disease (AD), a common neurodegenerative disorder pathologically characterized by Aβ peptide containing amyloid plaques and tau neurofibrillary tangles.
