“…It was observed that the majority of the sample was made up of male children, a result similar to those found in studies carried out by De Paula et al [22] and Marques et al [23], who verified the prevalence of males in the diagnosis of ASD. The results corroborate the ratio between the male and female sexes of 4:1, according to DSM-5 [6], and the ratio of 3:1, according to the meta-analysis carried out by Loomes et al [24].…”

There is no single pattern for the evolution of the nutritional status of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Previous studies have found a tendency towards food selectivity with food monotony and difficulties with food texture in children with ASD, but studies in this area, especially in Brazil, are still scarce. The nutritional profile and changes in eating behavior were analyzed in patients with autism spectrum disorder assisted at a reference center in Belém. Eating behavior was assessed using the Labyrinth Scale, nutritional status assessment through weight and height (to calculate body mass index—BMI), and consumption food through the 24 h reminder. A total of 80 children of both sexes participated in the study, the majority of whom were male (80%), 47.5% eutrophic, while for the food consumption of the children evaluated, there was an average energy consumption of 1911 kcal daily, with 57.3%, 15.4%, and 27.3% of carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids, respectively. In relation to eating behavior, the highest averages were demonstrated in the domains of food selectivity, behavioral aspects, and mealtime skills. Masticatory motor scores showed a positive correlation with weight, BMI, and the amount of energy consumed by the child. The gastrointestinal symptoms score showed a negative correlation with the child’s age. Regarding mealtime skills, a negative correlation was observed with the proportion of carbohydrates in the diet and a positive correlation with the proportion of lipids consumed in the children’s diet. Therefore, knowing the main changes in eating behavior is important to ensure a complete and safe approach for each patient.

O Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) é um transtorno do neurodesenvolvimento, considerado um problema de saúde pública devido diagnóstico crescente mundialmente. O presente estudo buscou analisar, através das narrativas produzidas pelos pais de crianças com TEA, os sentimentos e as repercussões do diagnóstico na família, bem como as condutas tidas como adequadas em relação atendimento prestados pelos profissionais de saúde. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória descritiva, de caráter qualitativo, desenvolvida em um município no interior do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, onde foram aplicadas entrevistas com 13 pais de crianças com TEA. Os dados foram coletados entre março e maio de 2022, nas residências e no local de trabalho dos entrevistados. Para a análise dos dados utilizou-se o método de Análise de Conteúdo, emergindo quatro categorias temáticas: reações e sentimentos diante de um diagnóstico, o TEA e as repercussões familiares e sociais, narrativas dos pais referentes aos atendimentos prestados pelos profissionais de saúde, condutas profissionais consideradas ideais. Os resultados indicaram que o diagnóstico impacta de diversas maneiras na vida dos familiares, despertando diferentes sentimentos, requerendo alterações na rotina e na vida social, pois a família acaba centrando suas atividades conforme as demandas da criança. Dentre as dificuldades enfrentadas, destaca-se a falta de acolhimento e apoio nos serviços de saúde, dificuldades de acesso às terapias e a escassez de profissionais especializados. Conclui-se que o cuidado efetivo a pessoa com TEA e sua família ainda possui fragilidade e os profissionais devem ser capacitados para as demandas desta condição que vem aumentando.
