Clinical observation shows that some children with ASD also have irregular breathing patterns. So far to date studies of autonomic dysfunction in ASD have focused on cardiac autonomic indices, skin galvanic conductance, or pupillary reflexes. We hypothesize that the dysautonomia in ASD also affects the breathing pattern.
tability all have been reported in children with ASD [9]. There is direct evidence of dysautonomia in children with ASD [1,2]. Toichi and Kamio [10] found that the mean resting parasympathetic activity in the heart was significantly lower in adolescents with ASD compared to age matched controls suggesting sympatho-vagal imbalance in ASD.
The respiratory dysrhythmia in children with ASD was associated with a lower cardiac vagal activity. Conclusion: The Biot's breathing and Cheyne-Stokes respiration coupled with cardiac vagal hypofunction in ASD suggest a brainstem dysfunction consistent with our previous findings. The low parasympathetic activity could explain in part the ...

Feb 1, 2016 · Children with ASD that had higher cardiovagal tone generally had more similar breathing patterns to neurotypical controls (Ming et al., 2016). The findings of this study show a relationship between cardiac arrythmias due to autonomic dysfunction and altered respiratory rhythm, and the authors hypothesize that the observed irregularities are due to brain stem dysfunction.

Dec 29, 2021 · Autonomic dysregulation has been proposed by some as a contributing factor to the neuropsychiatric symptoms in ASD (Hutt et al., 1964; Porges et al., 1996, 2013). However, no study has yet investigated autonomic function or dysfunction (dysautonomia) in ASD. The purpose of this study was to use clinical laboratory investigations to determine if ...
May 26, 2019 · The topic of “dysautonomia” is a very popular one amongst people with hereditary connective tissue disorders like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) and hypermobility spectrum disorders (HSD). Yet in spite of the significant comorbidity between EDS/HSD and autism, dysautonomias are not much of a talking point in the autism community.
