3 Learning Objectives Autism and Epilepsy Shifting Perspectives & Common Mechanisms Which comes first Autism or Epilepsy Clinical and Research Synergies American Epilepsy Society Annual Meeting
4 Autism and Epilepsy: Shifting Perspectives Neurodevelopmental Disorders Happe, F., et al. (2006). "Time to give up on a single explanation for autism." Nat Neurosci Berg, A., Scheffer I. (2011). "New concepts in classification of the epilepsies: Entering the 21st century." Epilepsia Epilepsy, like autism, is increasingly being described as a spectrum disorder Jensen, F. E. (2011). "Epilepsy as a spectrum disorder: Implications from novel clinical and basic neuroscience." Epilepsia multiple etiologies variable clinical symptoms variable outcomes
5 Epilepsy and Autism Commonly Co-exist Mouridsen, S. E., et al. (2011).

8 Common Mechanisms: Common Number Variants (CNVs) Common recurrent microdeletions associated with generalized epilepsy seen at a frequency of 1% at 15q13.3, 16p13.11, and 15q11.2 These three regions have been tied to multiple neurobehavioral phenotypes including epilepsy, autism, intellectual disability, and schizophrenia Mulley, J.

11 Intellectual Disability RRBIs Motor Language Social Interaction Social Definitions: Autism Deconstructed
12 Which comes first: Joint Attention capacity of individuals to coordinate attention with a social partner in relation to some object or event begins to emerge by 6 months of age early and critical foundation language & social cognition

17 Autism spectrum disorders in children with seizures in the first year of life - a population-based study. Epilepsia 7% with ASD all with intellectual disability Risk of autism spectrum disorders after infantile spasms: a population-based study nested in a cohort with seizures in the first year of life. Epilepsia Overall 14% with ASD ASD in 46% of those with Infantile Spasms ASD in 69% of those whose seizures were associated with brain insults Saemundsen, E., P. Ludvigsson, et al.
