Abstract

Genetic testing is recommended for all children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), yet available evidence suggests that not all receive appropriate genetic testing. We conducted a scoping review of factors that influence parent/caregiver uptake of genetic testing for their children with ASD. Overall, 37 articles met inclusion criteria. Themes included widespread lack of awareness of genetic testing recommendations but also varying interest in genetic testing once aware. Potential barriers included insurance and financial concerns, logistical challenges, and the lack of belief that genetics can cause ASD. Findings highlight the need to (a) better educate parents about practical benefits of genetic testing and causes of ASD and (b) increase insurance coverage and mitigate costs to improve uptake of genetic testing.

影响自闭症谱系障碍儿童接受基因检测的因素:范围审查
建议对所有被诊断患有自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的儿童进行基因检测,但现有证据表明,并非所有儿童都接受了适当的基因检测。我们对影响父母/照顾者接受自闭症谱系障碍儿童基因检测的因素进行了范围界定。共有 37 篇文章符合纳入标准。主题包括普遍缺乏对基因检测建议的了解,但在了解后对基因检测的兴趣也各不相同。潜在的障碍包括保险和经济问题、后勤挑战以及不相信遗传会导致 ASD。研究结果突出表明,有必要:(a)更好地教育家长,使他们了解基因检测的实际益处和导致 ASD 的原因;(b)增加保险覆盖面并降低成本,以提高基因检测的接受率。

期刊介绍: The Review Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders publishes original articles that provide critical reviews of topics across the broad interdisciplinary research fields of autism spectrum disorders. Topics range from basic to applied and include but are not limited to genetics, neuroscience, diagnosis, applied behavior analysis, psychopharmacology, incidence, prevalence, etiology, differential diagnosis, treatment, measurement of treatment effects, education, perception and cognition. Topics across the life span are appropriate. In addition, given the high rates of comorbid conditions, the interface of sleep disorders, feeding problems, motor difficulties, ADHD, anxiety, depression and other disorders with autism spectrum disorders are appropriate. The Journal aims for an international audience as reflected in the editorial board.
