Absence of a normal Cortisol Awakening Response (CAR) in adolescent males with Asperger Syndrome (AS)
Psychoneuroendocrinology, 06/30/09
Brosnan M et al. - Individuals with AS may have an impaired response to change in their environment due to a refractory HPA axis.
Methods- Examined whether the CAR was evident in 20 adolescent males with Asperger Syndrome (AS) and 18 age-matched typically developing (TD) controls (aged 11–16).
- A significant CAR was evidenced in the TD control group, this was not the case for those with AS.
- A normal diurnal decrease in cortisol, however, was evident in both groups.
