Is Asperger's Syndrome more common in twins?

I have not seen any studies on whether twins are more likely to have an autism spectrum disorder than single-birth children. It is possible that no one has done research on this. If one identical twin has an autism spectrum disorder, there is approximately a 90% chance that the other identical twin will. They might not have the same autism spectrum disorder or they might have the same disorder at different levels of severity. Many studies show the chance that they both have it if one twin does as somewhere between 82% and 97%. If the twins are fraternal (non-identical) twins and one has an autism spectrum disorder, the other has about the same chance of having an autism spectrum disorder as non-twin siblings do, which is greater than the chance of having an autism spectrum disorder in a family that does not have any history of it.


What is the role of the medulla in the symptoms of autism?

The medulla, a part of the brainstem, is not directly implicated in the symptoms of autism. Autism is primarily associated with differences in brain regions involved in social communication, emotional processing, and sensory integration, such as the prefrontal cortex and amygdala. The medulla is more involved in regulating basic physiological functions like heart rate, breathing, and reflexes.


Did Dian Fossey have autism and what kind?

There is no definitive evidence to suggest that Dian Fossey had autism. Without a formal diagnosis made during her lifetime, it is speculative to assign a specific type of autism to her.


What chromosome is autism on?

Yes. There is a link, but this does not mean it causes autism. However, there are some aspects of chromosome 1 that make it of interest in autism research. They do not describe it as causing autism, but instead as an autism susceptibility gene. Links to articles, abstracts, or reviews are in the "Related Links" section below.


Can stem cells get rid of autism?

Stem cells are not a proven or recommended treatment for autism. Current research on stem cell therapy for autism is still in its early stages and more studies are needed to determine its safety and effectiveness. It's important to consult with healthcare professionals for evidence-based treatments for autism.

What are concordance rates?

The presence of the same trait in both members of a pair of twins.


Who would show more concordance for a chiefly hereditary trait?

Identical twins would show more concordance for a chiefly hereditary trait compared to fraternal twins or siblings, as they share all of their genetic material. This higher genetic similarity increases the likelihood of both twins expressing the trait if it is primarily influenced by genetics.

The unemployment rate among college graduates affected by autism is 85.


What does research comparing the rates of schizophrenia in monochorionic twins and dichorionic twins suggest?

Concordance rates that suggested a role of genes in schizophrenia might more accurately be interpreted as a reflection of the influence of shared prenatal experience.


Is there a high rate of autism and Asperger's Syndrome?

It's relative. It depends on your opinion about what constitutes a high rate. The vast majority of people do not have autism or Asperger's Syndrome. It occurs in less than 1% of the population. There is a higher rate of cerebral palsy, but a lower rate of multiple sclerosis.


Is it possible for only one twin to develop autism?

Yes, it is possible. In one study, the chance that an identical twin has autism when the other does is 82%. That means that 18% of the identical twins did not have autism. It is much more likely that an identical twin will have autism if the other does than that a fraternal twin or other sibling will, but it does not happen every time.


Is there any genetic link in autism?

Yes, genetic influences on autism are believed to be 74%-98%. This figure comes from a large-scale research project on twins, where one twin was allistic and the other was Autistic. We do not know exactly what factors lead to autism, but as a normal human variant it was bound to be genetic.


What is a sentence for concordance?

You have the committee's complete concordance to make your presentation to the board. This concordance seems to be missing some listings.


What is incidence rate for autism?

Current diagnosis rate is 1 in 68 children in the US.Further statistics are harder to find, there's also question as to how correct the above statistic is. In theory Autism is under-diagnosed due to cultural and social factors such as stigma preventing parents seeking diagnosis, people avoiding diagnosis to avoid discrimination, and poverty preventing access to diagnosis. As it is we don't really know what the true rate of Autism is.


Is Autism autosomal?

Hi! That is a very difficult question to answer as there are a huge number of genes that cause Autism and there are likely some that haven't been discovered. There is a sex link with Autism (it affects boys at a rate of 1:42 and girls at a rate of 1:189) but despite this most scientists will try to make it easier to understand they will tell you that it is autosomal.
