“…Self-management included doing something by oneself, taking care of elderly and younger people, saving money, and planning ( 54 – 56 ). The non-verbal autistic child was defined as a child with less than five spontaneous functional words ( 57 , 58 ). A regressive autistic child was defined as a child who experienced a period of apparently normal development for the first one to 2 years of life, followed by an abrupt or gradual loss of previously acquired skills ( 59 , 60 ).…”

BackgroundTo explore the relationship between autistic clinical profiles and age at first concern and diagnosis among children with autism spectrum disorder. The clinical profiles included the severity of autism, cognition, adaptability, language development, and regression.MethodsThe multivariate linear regression model was used to examine the association of diagnostic age and first-concern age with autistic clinical profiles and with further stratification analysis.ResultsA total of 801 autistic children were included. Language delay and regression were associated with earlier diagnostic age (language delay: crudeβ: −0.80, 95%CI%: −0.92–−0.68; regression: crudeβ: −0.21, 95%CI%: −0.43–−0.00) and the age of first concern of autistic children (language delay: crudeβ: −0.55, 95%CI%: −0.65–−0.45; regression: crudeβ: −0.17, 95%CI%: −0.34–−0.00). After stratification by sex, language delay tended to be more associated with the earlier diagnostic age among boys (crudeβ: −0.85, 95%CI%: −0.98–−0.72) than among girls (crudeβ: −0.46, 95%CI%: −0.77–−0.16). After stratification by maternal education level or family income level, language delay was most associated with the earlier diagnostic age in autistic children from families with higher socioeconomic levels.ConclusionLanguage delay, rather than other symptoms, promoted an earlier diagnostic age. Among male autistic children or children from families with higher socioeconomic levels, language delay was most significantly associated with an earlier age of diagnosis. Cognitive delay, or adaptive delay, was associated with a later age at diagnosis and presented only in autistic children from families with lower socioeconomic levels. There may be sex or socioeconomic inequality in the diagnostic age for autistic children. More publicity and public education about the diversity of autistic symptoms are urgently needed in the future, especially for low-socioeconomic families.

“…Berdasarkan penelitian tersebut, maka semakin menguatkan hasil penelitian ini bahwa akupunktur tidak hanya bermanfaat untuk anak-anak dengan gangguan mental namun dapat meningkatkan kemampuan kognitif subjek penelitian yaitu dengan meningkatkan nilai IQ mahasiswa Jurusan Akupunktur. Dalam penelitian lain disebutkan bahwa terapi akupunktur dapat meningkatkan kemampuan kognitif penderita autis yaitu dengan penusukan titik akupunktur secara tidak ISSN: 2962-1070 (online) Halaman 168-178 Volume 1 Nomor 1 Tahun 2022langsung terlibat di dalam MNS (Mirror Nervous System) dan efeknya dapat meningkatkan kemampuan verbal dan kemampuan berbahasa serta kemampuan untuk berinteraksi sosial lebih baik(Chen et al, 2019).

Abstract Intelligence Quotient or commonly referred to as IQ is a term for grouping human intelligence which is believed to be a standard measure of intelligence for many years. One aspect of intellectual intelligence is memory. Some students who study in the Acupuncture Department find it difficult to memorize the lessons in the Acupuncture Department. The lack of research on the effects of acupuncture therapy in increasing a person's IQ score is the reason for the authors to conduct this study. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of acupuncture therapy in increasing the IQ (intelligence quotient) in students of the Acupuncture Department of the Health Polytechnic of Surakarta. This research is a pre-experimental pre-test and post-test design. The research will be conducted at the D-III Acupuncture Study Program in collaboration with the psychotest organizing institution, namely ANAVA Surakarta. The subjects of this study were 30 students of the Department of Acupuncture. The dependent variable is the Intelligence Quotient (IQ) score and the independent variable is acupuncture therapy at points HT 7 (Shenmen), GV 20 (Baihui), PC 6 (Neiguan) and SP 6 (Sanyinjiao). Data analysis using paired t test. There is a difference in mean IQ scores before and after acupuncture treatment. The mean value after acupuncture increased (mean=108) compared to the mean before acupuncture therapy (mean=101). Based on the analysis of the paired t test, the value of p <0.05 was obtained, which means it can be concluded that acupuncture therapy is effective in increasing the IQ (Intelligence Quotient) value. Acupuncture therapy is effective in increasing the IQ (Intelligence Quotient) in Acupuncture Department students.

“…Several types of treatments have been used to reduce the symptoms faced by these children with autism, ranging from medical consumption and non-medical attempts such as acupuncture (Chen et al 2019), horse therapy (Grandin, 2019) and humanoid robotic as rehabilitation assistive treatment (Robins et al 2005;Lorenzo et al 2018;Shamsudin et al 2012;.…”

The increasing rate of the number of children with Autism showed the importance to focus on ways to reduce the symptoms faced by the children with Autism. Noting the scarcity of research focusing on this area, this paper aims to review the use of humanoid robotics as an assistive rehabilitation treatment for children with Autism according to objectives of shariah in Islam. Content analyses through literature search from the online database were used as a basis for this review paper write-up from main sub-fields of humanoid robotics, assistive rehabilitation treatment for children with Autism and objectives of shariah in Islam. The researchers also follow the four-step process model derived from Mayring (2008), forming the process model of (qualitative) content analysis. Based on the paper, it was found that the framework of objectives of shariah in Islam which includes the Islamic Principles in treatment and rehabilitation are tailored according to Shariah Law to moderate and tolerate the balances between the new technology and the help from the therapists through the potential behavioural and cognitive changes associated with a single exposure to the humanoid. This paper believes that upon incorporating the protection of the five necessary intents of objectives of shariah in Islam, the humanoid will be able to help those children with autism to gain a better life.
