In the April issue of Pediatric Clinics, guest editors Drs. Paul Lipkin and Joshua Ewen, both of Kennedy Krieger Institute, brought their considerable expertise to the topic of autism spectrum disorder. While many pediatricians have now adopted screening and early identification of autism into their practices, limited training has been provided around longer-term care throughout childhood.
This April issue focused on the newest information about the fundamental neuroscience and genetics of autism and the care needs of children with autism during middle childhood and adolescence. It covered 14 practice-oriented topics, including the autism constellation and neurodiversity (including autism in adults), diagnosis of autism and its differential, psychopharmacology management of autism, autism in school and at home, evidence-based interventions in autism, suicide and elopement, and more.
