abstract = {This study determined the accuracy of Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (M-CHAT) in detecting toddlers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disorders (DD) in community mother and child health clinics. We analysed 19,297 eligible toddlers (15–36 months) who had M-CHAT performed in 2006–2011. Overall sensitivities for detecting ASD and all DD were poor but better in the 21 to <27 months and 27–36-month age cohorts (54.5–64.3%). Although positive predictive value (PPV) was poor for ASD, especially the younger cohort, positive M-CHAT helped in detecting all DD (PPV = 81.6%). This suggested M-CHAT for screening ASD was accurate for older cohorts (>21 months) and a useful screening tool for all DD. © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.},

abstract = {We have endeavored to build consensus among experts from diverse fields of study and theoretical orientation. We collaboratively determined the strategies used to evaluate the literature on the treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorders. In addition, we jointly determined the intended use of this document. We used a systematic process to provide all of our experts multiple opportunities to provide feedback on both the process and the document. Given the diversity of perspectives held by our experts, the information contained in this report does not necessarily reflect the unique views of each of its contributors on every point. We are pleased with the spirit of collaboration these experts brought to this process.},
