我还真看了很多篇，一般90年代和这个世纪初的都偏悲观，因为可能诊断比较严格

这篇是2014年的，结果比较乐观，他统计了所有曾经诊断过ASD的，包括“痊愈”（OO）和高功能（HFA）结果都算乐观，OO的组和TD（就是完全nt）的组在很多社交领域没有明显差异，只是有3个OO的人还是很难识别面部表情

他的样本构成，34个ASD和OO，44个高功能和34个nt，年龄从8岁到21岁
Thirty-four individuals with a history of ASD and OO, 44 high-functioning individuals with a current ASD diagnosis (HFA), and 34 typically developing peers (TD) were tested. Participants ranged from 8 years, 1 month to 21 years, 8 months.

Optimal Outcome in Individuals with a History of Autism

Background
Although Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) are generally considered lifelong disabilities, literature suggests that a minority of individuals with an ASD will lose the diagnosis. However, the existence of this phenomenon, as well as its frequency and interpretation, is still controversial: were they misdiagnosed initially, is this a rare event, did they lose the full diagnosis but still suffer significant social and communication impairments or did they lose all symptoms of ASD and function socially within the normal range?

Methods
The present study documents a group of these optimal outcome individuals (OO group, n=34) by comparing their functioning on standardized measures to age, sex, and nonverbal IQ matched individuals with high-functioning autism (HFA group, n=44) or typical development (TD group, n=34). For this study, ‘optimal outcome’ requires losing all symptoms of ASD in addition to the diagnosis, and functioning within the non-autistic range of social interaction and communication. Domains explored include language, face recognition, socialization, communication, and autism symptoms.

Results
OO and TD groups’ mean scores did not differ on socialization, communication, face recognition, or most language subscales, although three OO individuals showed below-average scores on face recognition. Early in their development, the OO group displayed milder symptoms than the HFA group in the social domain, but had equally severe difficulties with communication and repetitive behaviors.

Conclusions
Although possible deficits in more subtle aspects of social interaction or cognition are not ruled out, the results substantiate the possibility of optimal outcome from autism spectrum disorders and demonstrate an overall level of functioning within normal limits for this group.
