“…On the basis of the result, characterized by loss in socialization (absence of social smile and visual contact, social isolation), language (echolalia), in addition to stereotypy in behavior and echopraxia, the diagnosis was given of pervasive developmental disorder and severe mental deficiency 13 , associated with translocation of chromosomes 1-4.…”

“…The condition is sometimes observed in association with different neurobiological alterations, such as phenylketonuria, congenital rubella, as well as increased serotonin levels in the blood [9][10][11] . Various papers [12][13][14] and different authors 9, 15-23 also describe chromosomal variations that it is associated with.…”

“…Assim, a mente de um autista não estaria apta ao convívio social compreensível e compatível com os demais, e tampouco seria organizado de maneira a ordenar percepções internas 20 . Muitas crianças autistas conseguiriam perceber algumas categorias específicas de reconhecimento, embora não consigam identificar adequadamente os estados mentais mais sutis 21 . Esses autores estudaram o reconhecimento facial por meio da apresentação de quatro figuras (alegria, tristeza, raiva e surpresa) a 30 adultos considerados normais, 51 crianças conside-radas normais e a 30 crianças diagnosticadas como autistas.…”

Este artigo busca mostrar a relevância de modelos animais no estudo da síndrome autista por meio de revisão da literatura. Embora eles possam ser discutidos pela sua limitação, a contribuição no entendimento da síndrome e possibilidades de procedimentos que não são possíveis em humanos por razões éticas permite desvendar alguns aspectos dessa desordem. O autismo é um distúrbio psiquiátrico de desenvolvimento que se caracteriza por alterações comportamentais desde a infância, tais como prejuízo na comunicação, na interação social, além de movimentos repetitivos e estereotipados e dificuldades de aprendizado. Esses sintomas podem ser severos ou moderados e/ou parciais, além de nenhuma manifestação ser exclusiva desse transtorno, o que dificulta o diagnóstico. Os achados neuroanatômico-funcionais são inespecíficos, assim como os estudos genéticos. Além da eventual predisposição genética, fatores ambientais, como a neuroinflamação, podem aumentar a incidência do autismo. A corrente de estudos atribuindo distúrbios mentais, inclusive o autismo, a alterações imunes se apóia cada vez mais em inúmeras publicações recentes, envolvendo achados neuroimunes e desenvolvimento de diversos modelos animais. O presente trabalho realizou uma revisão sobre o autismo, discutindo a contribuição dos modelos animais para o estudo desta síndrome, além de discorrer sobre a participação da neuroinflamação como um fator associado à gênese desta patologia.

Sobre o Autismo, Neuroinflamação e Modelos Animais para o Estudo de Autismo: ABSTRACTThis article aims to discuss and review the relevance of animal models to study the autistic syndrome. Whereas the animal models may be discussed by its limitation, the contribution to understand the autistic syndrome and the possible procedures, that are not possible in humans for ethical reasons, contributes to reveal some aspects of this disorder. Autism is a developmental neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by several behavioral changes, such as impaired communication and social interaction, repetitive and stereotyped activity and learning difficulties. These symptoms can be severe or moderate and/or partial, but no event is exclusive to autism disorder, which complicates the diagnosis. The neuroanatomical-functional findings and genetic studies are nonspecific. Besides this possible genetic predisposition, environmental factors, such as neuroinflammation, may induce autism. The current studies attributing the immune alterations to mental disorders, including autism relies increasingly on numerous recent publications involving neuroimmune findings and development of various animal models. This article constitutes a review of autism, discussing the animal models to study this syndrome, and the neuroinflammation contribuction in the pathogenesis of autism.

“…Usually, children with ASD pay attention to the details of another person's body or object, especially those in motion. Despite children being attentive, they are unable to understand the set of information provided in front of them [20].…”

This paper presents a computer game developed to assist children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) to recognize facial expressions associated with the four basic emotions: joy, sadness, anger, and surprise. This game named ALTRIRAS is a role-playing game (RPG), a kind of game pointed out by the literature as the most suitable for these children for being more social than competitive. It has recreational settings built with 2D graphic interface to keep the children’s attention and an access control and a register mechanism to allow the monitoring of the child’s progress. The data collection of the functional, nonfunctional, psychological, and educational requirements, as well as the evaluation of its consistency and usability, was made by a multidisciplinary team consisting of five experts in each of the following expertises: pedagogy, psychology, psychopedagogy, and game development. The effectiveness test of the game was performed by 10 children with ASD and 28 children with neurotypical development, which were separated into control and experimental groups, respectively. All experts and children with neurotypical development answered the System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaire after playing the game. The results were positive, between experts and volunteers regarding their acceptance. However, the time of exposure to the game in children with ASD should be increased to effective assistance in the recognition of facial expressions.
