      AquOTic for Autism Spectrum Disorder

      Columbus, Ohio
      AquOTic is an evidence-based, occupational therapy-led intervention designed to enhance water competency and swim safety skills in children on the autism spectrum. The 10-week program consists of weekly 60-minute group sessions, each including six children paired in a 1:1 ratio with an interventionist. Sessions follow a structured routine involving six rotating stations, targeting various swim and safety skills, with the flexibility for individualized support by the interventionist. Overall, this study has 3 major aims. The first aim evaluates the effectiveness of the AquOTic intervention in improving water competency and swim skills, while comparing outcomes between two implementation models: professional student interventionists (occupational and physical therapy students) and trained community-based interventionists. A total of 108 autistic children will be enrolled and randomly assigned to one of three groups: (1) AquOTic with professional student interventionists, (2) AquOTic with community interventionists, or (3) a control group receiving no AquOTic intervention. The second aim explores the mediators and moderators of the intervention outcomes to assess fidelity and efficacy. The third aim identifies the cost and resources associated with AquOTic. A cost analysis will be conducted to evaluate the resources required for implementation and to inform the development of a scalable, cost-effective drowning prevention strategy for autistic populations.

      Simplified Language for Autism

      East Lansing, Michigan
      The long-term study goal is to experimentally evaluate the components (and likely active ingredients) of early language interventions for young children with ASD. The overall objective is to determine how single-word and telegraphic simplification affects real-time language processing and word learning in young children with ASD (relative to full, grammatical utterances). The proposed project will investigate three specific aims: 1) Determine how single-word and telegraphic simplification affects language processing. 2) Determine how single-word and telegraphic simplification affects word learning. 3) Evaluate child characteristics that may moderate the effects of linguistic simplification on language processing and word learning. Aim 1 will test the hypothesis that children with ASD will process full, grammatical utterances faster and more accurately than single-word or telegraphic utterances. Aim 2 will test the hypothesis that full, grammatical utterances will support word learning better than telegraphic or single-word utterances. Aim 3 will test the hypothesis that language and cognitive skills significantly moderate the effects of linguistic simplification on language processing and word learning in young children with ASD.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do Autism clinical trials in Boston, MA pay?

      Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

      How do Autism clinical trials in Boston, MA work?

      After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Autism trials in Boston, MA 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Boston, MA for Autism is 12 months.

      How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

      Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Boston, MA several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

      What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

      The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

      Do I need to be insured to participate in a Autism medical study in Boston, MA?

      Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

      What are the newest Autism clinical trials in Boston, MA?

      Most recently, we added Prednisone for Autism, Community Engagement for Autism and SDARI Program for Autism to the Power online platform.

      Is there still a spectrum for autism?

      Yes—medical guidelines still call it Autism Spectrum Disorder, but experts no longer picture that spectrum as a single line from “mild” to “severe.” Instead, it’s more like a sound-mixing board with many sliders: social communication, repetitive behaviors, sensory sensitivity, thinking style, and support needs can each sit at different points, creating a unique profile for every autistic person. Clinicians note these differences by assigning support levels (1-3) in each domain so interventions can be tailored rather than ranked.

      What is the biggest symptom of autism?

      There isn’t one “biggest” symptom of autism; doctors look for a pattern that includes BOTH social-communication differences (like trouble reading body language or carrying on back-and-forth conversation) and restricted, repetitive behaviours or intense interests/sensory sensitivities (such as needing strict routines or reacting strongly to noises). Which of these stands out most varies from person to person, so if you notice a persistent mix of them, the next step is to talk with your GP or a psychologist for a formal autism assessment and tailored support.

      Can maternal stress cause autism?

      Normal day-to-day worries during pregnancy have not been proven to cause autism. Large studies show that only very severe or long-lasting stress (such as the death of a close relative or a natural disaster) is linked to a small rise in risk—about 2 % to roughly 3 %—and even that link may partly reflect other genetic or environmental factors. Taking steps to manage high stress is good for overall maternal and baby health, but parents should not blame themselves or everyday stressors if a child is later diagnosed with autism.

      What is the life expectancy of someone with autism?

      Large registry studies (e.g., Sweden 2016, Denmark 2022) find that autistic people, on average, die 15–20 years earlier than non-autistic peers, with a median age of death around the mid-50s; the figure is lower (≈ 40s) when someone also has intellectual disability or uncontrolled epilepsy and higher (late 50s or beyond) when those conditions are absent. The gap is driven less by autism itself than by treatable or preventable issues—seizures, heart disease, accidents and suicide—so good medical follow-up, mental-health support and safety planning can help many autistic individuals live into typical older age.

      What is the best treatment for autism in the world?

      There is no one “best” treatment for every person with autism; the strongest evidence shows that progress comes from an individualized program that blends proven developmental-behavioral therapies (such as Applied Behavior Analysis or other naturalistic approaches) with speech-language and occupational therapy, parent coaching, and tailored educational supports. A multidisciplinary team adjusts this mix over time—and may add medication for anxiety, ADHD, or sleep problems—so the plan fits the person’s specific strengths, challenges, and goals, which is what international guidelines recommend for the best results.

      Is autism overdiagnosed?

      Rates of autism have risen sharply (e.g., from about 1 in 150 U.S. children in 2000 to 1 in 36 today), but most of that jump comes from broader definitions, better screening, and shifting other labels to “autism,” not from a sudden epidemic. Studies suggest roughly 1 in 10 people once given the label later lose it—evidence of some over-diagnosis—yet girls, adults, and many minority children are still frequently missed, so the real problem is uneven diagnosis rather than simply “too much” or “too little.” A careful, multidisciplinary assessment that also checks for ADHD, language disorders, anxiety, and other look-alike conditions is the best way to get an accurate answer for any individual.

      Who carries the autism gene?

      There is no single “autism gene.” Autism risk comes from a mix of many common genetic variants, rare mutations, and sometimes new (de-novo) changes that neither parent had; these can be inherited from either mother or father, while factors like higher paternal age and the female-protective effect can influence how that risk shows up. In short, either parent—or neither, if the change is new—can pass along genetic risk, so talking with a genetic counselor is the best way to understand a specific family’s situation.

      Which state has the highest rate of autism?

      In the latest CDC ADDM study, the surveillance area in California recorded the highest autism rate: roughly 4.5 % of 8-year-olds (about 45 children per 1,000). However, ADDM covers only parts of 11 states and other tracking systems use different methods, so rankings can change if you look at school records, insurance data, or adult estimates—meaning the numbers are useful for spotting trends, not declaring a single “most-autistic” state.

      Has anyone ever overcome autism?

      Autism is a lifelong neuro-developmental difference, so people don’t “overcome” it in the sense of being cured; instead, most continue to be autistic throughout life. With early, individualized supports and ongoing accommodations, many children and adults make major gains—some even lose the formal diagnosis—yet they often keep certain autistic traits and still benefit from understanding and acceptance. The practical aim is therefore not to erase autism but to build skills, reduce distress, and create environments where each autistic person can thrive.

      What was autism called in the 1980s?

      In the early-1980s diagnostic manual (DSM-III, 1980) autism was officially listed as “Infantile Autism,” and in the 1987 revision (DSM-III-R) the name was changed to “Autistic Disorder” under the larger category of “Pervasive Developmental Disorders.” Outside the U.S., doctors using the World Health Organization’s ICD-9 still called it “Childhood Autism.” In everyday practice, people might also have heard “Kanner’s autism” or “childhood psychosis,” but the two formal labels you would have seen on a medical chart during that decade were “Infantile Autism” at the start of the 1980s and “Autistic Disorder” by the end.
