          Through the Eye of the Beholder: People With Autism Process Illusory Shapes Differently

          Using EEG data, researchers discovered children on the autism spectrum do not automatically process illusory shapes as well as children not on the autism spectrum. The findings suggest something is going awry in the feedback-processing pathways in the brains of those with autism.

          Social Deficits and Seizures in Autism Type Tied to Overexcited Brain Circuits

          A genetic subtype of ASD and schizophrenia have a duplicate gene that triggers overactivity in neural circuits, leading to social deficits and seizures. When researchers reduced the level of the PRRT2 gene in mouse models of 16p11.2 duplication syndrome, social behaviors were restored and seizure activity decreased.

          Sensory Signals Are Integrated Differently, Underrepresented by Neurons in Autism

          Environmental sensory signals are integrated differently in those with Fragile X syndrome, causing them to be underrepresented by cortical pyramidal neurons.

          People With Autism Experience Pain at a Higher Intensity

          People with autism experience pain at a higher intensity than those not on the autism spectrum and are less adaptable to the sensation. This revelation contradicts the prevailing belief that those with ASD tend to be indifferent to pain.

          Between 2000 and 2016, documented cases of ASD increased as much as 500% in the New York - New Jersey metro region. The highest increase was in children without intellectual disabilities. Researchers say as many as 2 out of 3 children diagnosed with autism have no intellectual disabilities at all.
