Research Abstract |
To investigate the neurological mechanism of the auditory hypersensitivity in autism spectrum disorder, we measured auditory-evoked field values (M50, M100) to tone pip stimuli using magnetoencephalography (MEG), and analyzed their association with severity of hypersensitivity. In ASD with hypersensitivity group, the latency for M50 and M100 were prolonged, increased response power and correlated with severity of hypersensitivity. Furthermore, M50 responses were progressively increased to repeated sounds, and response duration was prolonged in ASD with hypersensitivity. Those results were suggested that auditory hypersensitivity in ASD could be related with abnormality of sensory gating system in thalamus and /or reduction of cortical inhibitory system.
