Interventions targeting sensory challenges in autism spectrum disorder: a systematic review.
This review evaluated the effectiveness and safety of interventions targeting sensory challenges in ASD. It concluded that some interventions may yield modest short-term (<6 months) improvements in sensory- and ASD symptom severity-related outcomes; the evidence base is small, and the durability of the effects is unclear. Although some therapies may hold promise, substantial needs exist for continuing improvements in methodologic rigor.
