Guest guest Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Thanks for this,the source paper is at:http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7015/10/64/abstractif anyone wants to have a look. This is interesting, but as with a lot in this area it is not yet clinically useful. The discrimination is a comparison against neuro-typical controls. What you would need to make this helpful would be comparison against other non-ASD clinical groups where there is an issue of differential diagnosis - which its it? Things like a primary communication disorder; LKS-type seizure problems; ADHD etc.The method is good but you would need clinical comparison samples not normal controls. Running this would tell you someone was not neuro-typical but not why. Their earlier work on the effects of extreme prematurity shows marked differences from normal controls as well using this sort of method matched against the APIB....Potentially useful but nothing to get too excited about at the moment.Ken To: Autism-Biomedical-Europe Sent: Thursday, 28 June 2012, 23:53 Subject: EEG for Autism http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-18577327 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
