Elster, Peter Tino, Graeme Fairchild, Christina Stadler, Arne Popma, Christine M. Freitag, Stephane A. De Brito, Kerstin Konrad, Ruth Pauli

“…Here, we used novel analytic techniques such as machine learning (ML) to uncover potentially sex-specific differences in emotion dysfunction among girls and boys with CD compared to their neurotypical peers. Methods Multi-site data from 542 youth with CD and 710 neurotypical controls (64% girls, 9–18 years) who completed emotion recognition, learning, and regulation tasks were analyzed using a multivariate ML classifier to distinguish between youth with CD and controls separately by sex. …”

New theoretical advances in the understanding of autistic “special abilities” by Laurent Mottron, Jade Desrosiers, David Gagnon, Alexia Ostrolenk, WANG Yu, ZHANG Yingying, ZOU Xiaobing

“…The longitudinal and operational properties of calendar calculation are analogous to the language learning and processing characteristics of neurotypical populations. Combining the “hijacking” of human language analyzer and directing it towards non-communicative， language-like material provides a concise explanation for the common features of most autistic special abilities and integrates and enriches the “Veridical mapping model”.…”

Danger Is a Signal, Not a State: Bigaagarri—An Indigenous Protocol for Dancing Around Threats to Wellbeing by Phillip Orcher, Victoria J. Palmer, Tyson Yunkaporta

“…It contests the dominant social imaginaries and narratives embedded in standard service models, which perpetuate the ongoing recolonisation of Indigenous identities, and common exclusion of others outside of the neurotypical majority. The Bigaagarri protocol is a potential way forward to reimagine preventive health landscapes, decolonise support for suicide and mental health through the embedding of Indigenous knowledges to lead to holistic approaches for wellbeing.…”

The relationship between mitochondrial health, telomerase activity and longitudinal telomere attrition, considering the role of chronic stress by Mauricio Guillen-Parra, Jue Lin, Aric A. Prather, Owen M. Wolkowitz, Martin Picard, Elissa S. Epel

“…We secondarily examined the role of chronic stress, by comparing these relationships in mothers of children with an autism spectrum disorder (caregivers) vs. mothers of a neurotypical child (controls). Here we show that both chronic stress exposure and lower MHI independently predicted decreases in telomerase activity over the subsequent 9 months. …”
