Early identification of autism in fragile X syndrome : a review

McCary, L M

Early identification of autism in fragile X syndrome : a review - 2013 - Journal of Intellectual Disability Research 57 (9) 2013: 803-814 .

Notes that fragile X is the leading genetic cause of autism but there is a lack of research focusing on the early development of autism within FXS and debate in the literature regarding how to best conceptualise this comorbidity or whether it should be considered a comorbid condition at all. Argues that studying the emergence and stability of autism in infants with FXS would have multiple benefits.
