flag Most U.S. child neurologists miss motor impairments in autistic children, despite them affecting up to 87%.

flag A new study finds that most U.S. child neurologists overlook motor impairments—a common and well-documented autism symptom—despite affecting up to 87% of autistic children. flag Only 36% of surveyed specialists correctly identified motor deficits as a key autism feature, and many underestimated their prevalence due to time, training, and behavioral barriers. flag Untreated motor issues can hinder development, exploration, language, and social skills. flag Experts urge better medical training, accessible screening tools, and caregiver input to improve detection and ensure comprehensive autism evaluations.
