Abstract: This study evaluated developmental, psychiatric, and neurologic conditions among older siblings of children with and without autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to understand the extent of familial clustering of these diagnoses. Using data from the Study to Explore Early Development, a large multi-site case-control study, the analyses included 2,963 children aged 2–5 years with ASD, other developmental disabilities (DD group), and a population-based control group (POP). Percentages of index children with older siblings with select developmental, psychiatric, and neurologic conditions were estimated and compared across index child study groups using chi-square tests and multivariable modified Poisson regression. In adjusted analyses, children in the ASD group were significantly more likely than children in the POP group to have one or more older siblings with ASD, developmental delay, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, intellectual disability, sensory integration disorder (SID), speech/language delays, or a psychiatric diagnosis (adjusted prevalence ratio [aPR] range: 1.4–3.7). Children in the DD group were significantly more likely than children in the POP group to have an older sibling with most of the aforementioned conditions, except for intellectual disability and psychiatric diagnosis (aPR range: 1.4–2.2). Children in the ASD group were significantly more likely than children in the DD group to have one or more older siblings with ASD, developmental delay, SID, or a psychiatric diagnosis (aPR range: 1.4–1.9). These findings suggest that developmental disorders cluster in families. Increased monitoring and screening for ASD and other DDs may be warranted when an older sibling has a DD diagnosis or symptoms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
