A genome-wide search for alleles and haplotypes associated with autism and related pervasive developmental disorders on the Faroe IslandsM B Lauritsen
Centre for Basic Psychiatric Research, Psychiatric Hospital in Aarhus, Aarhus University Hospital, Shovagervej 2, DK 8240 Risskov, Denmark
Mol Psychiatry 11:37-46. 2006..Our data suggest that markers in these regions are in linkage disequilibrium with genes involved in the etiology of autism, and we hypothesize susceptibility genes for autism and related PDDs to be localized within these regions...
Medical disorders among inpatients with autism in Denmark according to ICD-8: a nationwide register-based studyMarlene B Lauritsen
Department of Psychiatric Demography, Institute for Basic Psychiatric Research, Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark
J Autism Dev Disord 32:115-9. 2002..A highly significant increased frequency of congenital malformations was found, which may indicate abnormalities in embryogenesis in the etiology of autism...
Validity of childhood autism in the Danish Psychiatric Central Register: findings from a cohort sample born 1990-1999Marlene B Lauritsen
NANEA at Department of Epidemiology and Social Medicine, Institute of Public Health, University of Aarhus, Aarhus, Denmark
J Autism Dev Disord 40:139-48. 2010..Of the 30 non-confirmed cases, five were classified by the reviewers as non-autistic cases and the remaining 25 cases were either classified with another ASD diagnosis or the specific diagnosis was not possible to determine...
Thimerosal and the occurrence of autism: negative ecological evidence from Danish population-based dataKreesten M Madsen
Danish Epidemiology Science Centre, Department of Epidemiology and Social Medicine, University of Aarhus, Denmark
Pediatrics 112:604-6. 2003..We examined whether discontinuing the use of thimerosal-containing vaccines in Denmark led to a decrease in the incidence of autism...
Analysis of transmission of novel polymorphisms in the somatostatin receptor 5 (SSTR5) gene in patients with autismMarlene B Lauritsen
Department of Psychiatric Demography, Institute for Basic Psychiatric Research, Psychiatric Hospital in Aarhus, Risskov, Denmark
Am J Med Genet B Neuropsychiatr Genet 121:100-4. 2003..No significant preferential transmission of the alleles and haplotypes of the twelve SNPs was found. Our results do not suggest the SSTR5 gene as a susceptibility gene for autism...
[Thimerosal and the occurrence of autism. Negative ecological evidence from Danish registry-data]Kreesten Meldgaard Madsen
Aarhus Universitet, Institut for Epidemiologi og Socialmedicin, Center for Epidemiologisk Grundforskning
Ugeskr Laeger 166:3291-3. 2004
[22q11 deletion syndrome]Charlotte Olesen
Børneafdelingen, Arhus Universitetshospital, Skejby, DK 8200 Arhus N, Denmark
Ugeskr Laeger 172:1038-46. 2010..In this review we describe the various manifestations of the syndrome. Finally, we suggest strategies for diagnosing, evaluating and organizing the treatment for Danish patients with this syndrome...
Patterns of contact with hospital for children with an autism spectrum disorder: a Danish register-based studyHjördís Osk Atladóttir
Department of Public Health, Section of Epidemiology, University of Aarhus, Bartholin Allé 2, 8000, Arhus C, Aarhus, Denmark
J Autism Dev Disord 42:1717-28. 2012..If the increased rate of hospital contact overall for children with ASD is not considered, then misleading over interpretations might be made of observed associations between specific diseases and ASD...
Parental age and autism spectrum disordersErik Thorlund Parner
School of Public Health, Department of Biostatistics, University of Aarhus, Bartholins Alle 2, Aarhus C, Denmark
Ann Epidemiol 22:143-50. 2012..We sought to study the possible association between parental age and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by using both a cohort design and a sibling design...
Investigation of two variants in the DOPA decarboxylase gene in patients with autismMarlene B Lauritsen
Department of Psychiatric Demography, Institute for Basic Psychiatric Research, Psychiatric Hospital in Aarhus, Risskov, Denmark
Am J Med Genet 114:466-70. 2002..Nor did we find linkage disequilibrium between autism and haplotypes of the two variants using a multiallelic TDT. These findings suggest that the DDC gene is unlikely to play a major role in the development of autism in our data set...
