Objectives

Narrative objectives1

One of the causes or signs of social disorders in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is the impairment of joint attention. In connection with this, functional abnormalities such as superior temporal sulcus (STS), dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC), and temporoparietal junction (TPJ) have been pointed out by fMRI studies. However, joint attention is an unconscious and fast reaction that occurs in units of tens to hundreds of milliseconds. With fMRI, which has a time resolution of only a few seconds to a few tens of seconds, it has not been possible to clarify what kind of circuits these brain regions form and synchronize and interlock. Therefore, we perform whole-brain measurement using MEG with a time resolution of 1/1000 second. It reveals how these brain regions form circuits in gaze recognition and processing, how they are synchronized and interlocked, and how they are impaired in ASD patients. This is the purpose of this research.

Key inclusion criteria

Enroll in 30 ASD patients aged 20 years or older with no intellectual disability and borderline intelligence (ie IQ 85 or higher) and 30 neurotypical (TD) groups matched by age, gender, and IQ. For the diagnosis of ASD, the 5th edition (DSM-5) of the Diagnosis and Statistics Manual for Mental Illness is used, and the diagnosis is made with the unanimous agreement of two psychiatrists who have been examined separately. For IQ evaluation, use WAIS-III or WAIS-IV, and enter after confirming that FIQ85 or higher and that there is no problem in language comprehension (VIQ85 or higher).

Key exclusion criteria

In order to exclude the effects of secondary disorders, cases of coexisting mental illness such as schizophrenia and depression are excluded. We do not exclude abnormalities in the developmental disability zone that are often associated with ASD, such as lack of attention / hyperactivity, localized learning disabilities, communal motor disorders, tic disorders, and Tourette's disorders, and are thought to be inherent in the patient.
