본 연구의 목적은 RGP콘택트렌즈 착용 시 나타날 수 있는 증상에 관한 안경사의 이해도를 조사하는 것인데, RGP 콘택트렌즈 착용 시의 나타날 수 있는 증상에 대한 이해도가 높다면 적응증상과 이상증상을 구분하고 해결하여 RGP콘택트렌즈의 착용성공률을 보다 높여 줄 것이기 때문이다. 96명의 안경사를 대상으로 설문지를 통해 RGP콘택트렌즈 처방에 사용되는 기기 사용방법 및 경험, RGP콘택트렌즈 착용 시 나타날 수 있는 증상 등에 대한 이해수준을 조사하였다. 결과는 RGP콘택트렌즈 착용 시 증상에 대한 정확한 이해력이 상당히 낮은 수준으로 조사되었고, 정확한 처방을 위해 이론교육 및 실습교육 등이 더 강화되어야 한다.

Objectives: Regression, while not a core symptom of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), has been suggested to be a distinct subtype by previous studies. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the prevalence and clinical differences between those with and without regression in children with ASD. Methods: This study includes data from toddlers and young children aged 2-7 years acquired from other projects at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital. The presence and characteristics of regression were explored using question items #11-28 from the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised. Chi-square and independent t-tests were used to compare various clinical measurements such as autistic symptoms, adaptative behavior, intelligence, and perinatal factors. Results: Data from 1438 young children (1020 with ASD) were analyzed. The overall prevalence rate of regression, which was mainly related to language-related skills, was 10.2% in the ASD group, with an onset age of 24 months. Regarding clinical characteristics, patients with ASD and regression experienced ASD symptoms, especially restricted and repetitive interests and behaviors, with greater severity than those without regression. Furthermore, there were significant associations between regression and hypertension/placenta previa. Conclusion: In-depth surveillance and proactive interventions targeted at young children with ASD and regression should focus on autistic symptoms and other areas of functioning.
