    Developmental trajectory of a toddler with PACS1 syndrome: a longitudinal descriptive case study
    (Taylor & Francis , 2025-03-27) Martínez Castilla, Pastora; Campos, Ruth; Nieto, Carmen; Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación
    Objectives PACS1 syndrome is a rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorder first described in 2012. Despite its severe impact on both affected individuals and their families, to date, there have been no detailed characterizations of the developmental trajectory of children with PACS1 syndrome. Our work aimed to fill this gap. It also sought to raise awareness of this syndrome. Methods A 24-month-old boy with PACS1 syndrome was longitudinally assessed every 6 months until 48 months of age. His cognitive, motor, linguistic and socio-communicative development, as well as his adaptative behaviour and sensory profile, were assessed using different tools. At 51 months, symptoms compatible with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) were also explored. Results Delays were observed in all the areas assessed but no regression was noticed. Strong difficulties were observed in communication and language. The most notable developmental progression was seen in socialization. Yet, symptomatology of ASD was also observed. Conclusions Consistent results were obtained through the evaluation tools used in the study, but slight differences were also noticed, highlighting the need for a comprehensive battery of different assessment methods. Raise in linguistic development was concurrent to an intervention aimed at promoting parents’ sensitive response to their child’s behaviour.

    Brief report: Sensory atypicality in mothers and fathers of individuals on the autism spectrum and its relationship with emotional distress
    (Elsevier, 2024-10-11) Nieto, Carmen; Gandía-Abellán, Helena; Campos, Ruth; Martínez Castilla, Pastora; Cavero-Olivera, Beatriz; Quesada-Zeljkovic, Margarita; Verde-Cagiao, María; Spanish Federation of Autism (FESPAU), Ministry of Social Rights and 2030 Agenda of Spain, ONCE Foundation, Ministry of Science and Innovation
    Background: This study investigated the prevalence of sensory atypicalities of mothers and fathers of individuals with Autism and explored the relationship between levels of emotional distress (parental distress, anxiety, and depression) and sensory processing patterns. There is limited evidence connecting these variables, and research in this area remains scarce. Method: 251 parents participated in the study. 170 parents of individuals with Autism completed questionnaires on sensory experiences, parental distress, anxiety, and depression. A control group of 81 parents of individuals with typical development completed the sensory questionnaire. The relationship between sensory atypicality and emotional distress was examined only in the Autism group. Results: Mothers and fathers of individuals with Autism showed a higher prevalence of sensory atypicality, especially in hyposensitive patterns. Relationships were found between specific sensory patterns and the levels of emotional distress. The hypo-reactive and hyposensitive quadrant, ’Low Registration’, displayed significant predictive capacity for both anxiety and depression, while ’Sensory Sensitivity’ was predominantly related to parental distress. Conclusions: Awareness of specific sensory patterns could facilitate the identification of those potentially vulnerable to experiencing anxiety, depression, or parental distress.

    Estudio de caso en una familia con un niño con síndrome de PACS1 mediante la escala PICCOLO
    (Universidad Complutense de Madrid, 2024-06-07) Teira Serrano, Celia; Martínez Castilla, Pastora; Nieto, Carmen
    Los Modelos Centrados en la Familia del ámbito de la Atención Temprana dan como resultado el empoderamiento familiar junto a una mayor competencia de los menores en las rutinas. El presente estudio de intervención de caso único se ha realizado bajo este modelo. Durante un año, se ha acompañado a la familia de un niño con síndrome de PACS1, un trastorno del neurodesarrollo de origen genético y muy baja prevalencia. Mediante la Escala PICCOLO de observación de las interacciones parentales con los/las niños/as, se analizaron grabaciones mensuales del padre jugando con su hijo. Tras establecer tres meses de evaluación de línea base, se realizaron devoluciones bimensuales por videoconferencia a la familia, basadas en sus preocupaciones y en aspectos concretos de cada uno de los 4 dominios de la escala, con el fin de facilitar su comprensión del desarrollo e interacciones con el menor. El padre se encontraba en la media poblacional de puntuaciones en estos cuatro dominios, y evolucionó positivamente y de forma constante en uno de los objetivos de intervención planteados (ítem 3 de la escala de enseñanza: “Repite o expande las palabras o los sonidos del niño”). Al finalizar, se valoró con la familia este modo de intervención destacando la utilidad del visionado de las grabaciones a posteriori y su sensación de competencia.
