Abstract

Neurodevelopmental disorders do not have biological markers that allow for their identification. This means that in most cases, diagnosis is based on behavior. This approach implies that difficulties will exist in establishing the diagnostic boundaries of the different nosological entities, and it argues that neurodevelopmental disorders probably share neuropsychological deficits. Our main objective was to study whether neurodevelopmental disorders share a common endophenotype. We carried out a study of memory in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), Developmental Language Disorders (DLD), and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). For this purpose, we administered an extensive neuropsychological battery to evaluate memory to 24(ASD), 25(DLD), and 25(ADHD) children. The results obtained by these three clinical groups were contrasted with those obtained by a group of 25 children of typical development (TD). TD group performed better in all memory tasks, except the recognition task than the clinical groups, and the clinical groups showed slight differences among themselves in their performance in memory tasks. These results show that memory deficits could represent a common endophenotype at least in these three neurodevelopmental disorders and emphasize the need to intervene in memory disorders in this population.

西班牙自闭症谱系障碍、发育性语言障碍和注意力缺陷多动障碍儿童的记忆谱重叠

摘要

神经发育障碍没有可以识别的生物学标记。这意味着在大多数情况下,诊断是基于行为的。这种方法意味着在确定不同疾病学实体的诊断边界方面存在困难,并且它认为神经发育障碍可能具有神经心理缺陷。我们的主要目标是研究神经发育障碍是否具有共同的内表型。我们对患有自闭症谱系障碍 (ASD)、发育性语言障碍 (DLD) 和注意力缺陷多动障碍 (ADHD) 的儿童的记忆力进行了研究。为此,我们管理了一个广泛的神经心理学电池来评估 24(ASD)、25(DLD)和 25(ADHD)儿童的记忆。这三个临床组获得的结果与一组 25 名典型发育(TD)儿童获得的结果进行了对比。TD组在除识别任务外的所有记忆任务中均优于临床组,临床组在记忆任务中的表现略有差异。这些结果表明,至少在这三种神经发育障碍中,记忆缺陷可能代表一种常见的内表型,并强调需要干预该人群的记忆障碍。
