Résumé
Sleep problems and irritable temperaments are common among infants with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The prospective association between such sleep problems and irritable temperaments and ASDs needs to be determined for elucidating the mechanism and exploring the future intervention study. Thus, in this study, we investigated whether sleep quality and temperament in 1-month-old infants are associated with the onset of ASD in 3-year-old children. We also assessed its sex-stratified associations. We conducted a longitudinal study using data from 69,751 mothers and infants from a large-cohort study, the Japan Environment and Children's Study. We examined the prospective association between infant sleep quality and temperament at 1 month of age and ASD diagnosis by 3 years of age. Here we show infants with longer daytime sleep have a higher risk of later ASD than those with shorter daytime sleep (risk ratio [RR]: 1.33, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01-1.75). Infants who experienced intense crying have a higher risk of ASD than those who did not (RR: 1.31, 95% CI: 1.00-1.72). There is a difference in sex in the association between a bad mood and later ASD. In particular, female infants experiencing bad moods have a higher risk of ASD than others (RR: 3.59, 95% CI: 1.91-6.75). The study findings provide important information for future intervention to reduce the risk of future ASD. Sleep problems and irritable temperaments are common among infants with autism. This study looked at the sleep and temperament of nearly 70,000 1-month-old infants in Japan and whether they were subsequently diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder during the first three years of life. Children who had slept for longer during the day and were more prone to frequent, prolonged, or intense crying were more likely to have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder by age 3. The findings of this study might be useful for those monitoring the development of autism spectrum disorder or developing support for those with autism spectrum disorders.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
Sleep problems and irritable temperaments are common among infants with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The prospective association between such sleep problems and irritable temperaments and ASDs needs to be determined for elucidating the mechanism and exploring the future intervention study. Thus, in this study, we investigated whether sleep quality and temperament in 1-month-old infants are associated with the onset of ASD in 3-year-old children. We also assessed its sex-stratified associations.
METHODS
METHODS
We conducted a longitudinal study using data from 69,751 mothers and infants from a large-cohort study, the Japan Environment and Children's Study. We examined the prospective association between infant sleep quality and temperament at 1 month of age and ASD diagnosis by 3 years of age.
RESULTS
RESULTS
Here we show infants with longer daytime sleep have a higher risk of later ASD than those with shorter daytime sleep (risk ratio [RR]: 1.33, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.01-1.75). Infants who experienced intense crying have a higher risk of ASD than those who did not (RR: 1.31, 95% CI: 1.00-1.72). There is a difference in sex in the association between a bad mood and later ASD. In particular, female infants experiencing bad moods have a higher risk of ASD than others (RR: 3.59, 95% CI: 1.91-6.75).
CONCLUSIONS
CONCLUSIONS
The study findings provide important information for future intervention to reduce the risk of future ASD.
Sleep problems and irritable temperaments are common among infants with autism. This study looked at the sleep and temperament of nearly 70,000 1-month-old infants in Japan and whether they were subsequently diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder during the first three years of life. Children who had slept for longer during the day and were more prone to frequent, prolonged, or intense crying were more likely to have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder by age 3. The findings of this study might be useful for those monitoring the development of autism spectrum disorder or developing support for those with autism spectrum disorders.
