note = "Funding Information: Dr. Cusack: When I joined Autistica one of the things which we focused on was premature mortality in autistic adults, and the health inequalities for autistic adults. Based on research in the U.S. and Australia,9,10 we recommended that we should trial the use of health checks (health advice based on physical assessment, lifestyle questions, and medications review) in autistic adults. We held a workshop with researchers, autistic people, policymakers, and clinicians to design a health check which would work within the UK context and to determine how we could undertake a clinical trial on its efficacy, as well as to understand things like its uptake. That trial is now underway with funding from Autistica and National Health Service England (NHS).",
