Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by clinical, etiologic and genetic heterogeneity. It is often associated with other conditions, such as disorders of the CNS (tuberous sclerosis), developmental delay, attention deficit, epilepsy, and anxiety and mood disorders. Our survey found cytogenetically visible chromosomal anomalies in ∼7.4% (129 / 1749) of autistic patients documented as well as several sub-microscopic variants. Almost every chromosome is affected by numeric or structural aberrations. Among the most consistent cytogenetics findings are fragile X and duplication of maternal 15q11-q13. Molecular cytogenetics, together with genome scans and linkage / association studies, point to ≥22 chromosome regions harbouring putative autism susceptibility genes, such as 2q32, 3q25-q27, 7q31-q35, 15q11-q13, 16p13, Xp22, and Xq13. We hypothesize that there might be at least three types of autism susceptibility genes / mutations that can be (i) specific to an individual patient or family, (ii) in a genetically isolated sub-population and (iii) a common factor shared amongst different populations. The genes / mutations could act alone or interact with other genetic and / or epigenetic or environmental factors, causing autism or related disorders. This review emphasizes the potential of analysing chromosomal rearrangements as a means to rapidly define candidate disease loci for further investigation. To facilitate ongoing research we have established a new database of autism-associated chromosomal anomalies (http: / / tcag.bioinfo. sickkids.on.ca / autism). Keywords: autistic spectrum disorder, hromosome anomalies, molecular cytogenetics, genomics, 7q, 15q

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
