Active clinical trials for "Autism Spectrum Disorder"

This study investigates brain response to single acute dose of cannabidiol, cannabidivarin, and placebo in healthy men with and without autism spectrum disorder

The purpose of this study is to determine whether Teleconsultation would a)be effective and cost-effective by increasing the proportion of patients with Autism Spectrum Disorders having a correct follow-up, and less transportation, and b) get a high satisfaction from the parents and from the professionals

Autism Spectrum Disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impaired social communication and repetitive or stereotyped behaviors. According to the World Health Organization , the prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder is one person in 160.

Persons with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are characterized by impairments in social interactions, speech and communication, restricted patterns of behaviour, and unusual sensory sensitivities. There are not many studies available reporting oral health status, dental care needs and oral health care protocol for persons with an ASD.

The purpose of this study is to accumulate and quantitatively analyze data on the microbiome, serotonin signaling and genetics, and inflammatory cytokines from patients with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Fragile X Syndrome. Computational analysis of multi-dimensional datasets will be used to establish a "Diagnostic and Therapeutic Index" - an objective set of tools that can help differentiate subtypes of Autism Spectrum Disorder and develop more accurate methods of diagnosis and response to treatment.

The objective of this multidisciplinary project is to explore the deficit of associative memory in ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorder) that could result from abnormal brain connectivity. The hypothesis of abnormal functioning of the fronto-hippocampal network has been evocated but has never been tested. Hence, the present project will include two complementary assessments conducted on a group of adults aged from 18 to 30 with ASD compared to a control group matched in chronological age and intellectual quotient. The first assessment is devoted to the study of associative memory and its EEG correlates and the second focused on the investigation of perceptual strategies related to associative memory using the technique of Eye-tracking. Both behavioral and imaging data would provide new insights on the relationship between perception and memory in ASD.

The aim of this study is to investigate the neural substrates of associative memory in Autism Spectrum Disorder using both behavioural and EEG assessments.

To determine whether Vitamin B6 and Magnesium improve neurobehavioral status in terms of General observation, Cognitive working, Socialization, Communication and Sensory Dysfunction in patient with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

The aim of this study is to assess the cognitive strengths and weaknesses of children with autism and the possible effect of age and IQ on Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, 5th Edition. Such analysis will help us for prompt and early intervention.

In order to examine the experience of children with ASC in physical activity at home, at school, and in the local community, parents of children with ASC will be asked a number of open ended interview questions. To see if these experiences are unique to parents of children ASC, parents of non-ASC children will also be interviewed to allow for these perspectives to be compared and contrasted.
