Exploring and Unraveling Autism

Autism Spectrum Disorder, also known as ASD, is a complex series of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by social disorders, communication difficulties, and restricted repetitive and stereotypic behavioral patterns. It is the most common and tough form of ASD, known as autism, autism or classical ASD. Other less severe diseases include Asperger's syndrome and generalized developmental disorders. Autism affects the processing of information in the brain by changing how nerve cells and their synapses are connected and organized.

The brains of some people with Autism Spectrum Disorders usually grow faster earlier in life than normal, prior to diagnosis. A new study led by scientists at the Salk Institute has revealed a mechanism that drives the mystery of overgrowth of the brain using state-of-the-art stem cell technology and affects up to 30% of autistic people. Interestingly, the Salk team found that stem cell derived neurons have less connections in culture dishes than cells from healthy individuals. In addition, scientists can restore intercellular communication by adding IGF-1, a drug currently being evaluated in autistic clinical trials.

Many people want autism - clearly, all autistic patients - have been eliminated. Autism is said that autism is an epidemic disease and is a "cure" disease. Colorado is considering the epidemic of autism. Our existence is a threat to people. We are seen to be unable to live a precious life. As with addiction, cancer or progressive lethal disease, autism is considered malignant, no one wants. As many parents, doctors, and psychologists want to screen autism during pregnancy just like Down's syndrome, parents can eliminate us from existence systematically.

Diagnosis of autism and increased frequency of parental attention urged researchers to explore the cause of autism. The current theory thinks that it is a genetic disease. For example, in twin studies, we know that if the same twin is diagnosed with autism, the probability that these twins will be diagnosed will be as high as 90%. Researchers are still looking for other potential contributors and possible treatments. Many concerns about the association between vaccines and autism arise from studies withdrawn from the twelve children published in Andrew Wakefield's British Medical Journal (BMJ) Lancet. His study found that children began to show signs of stunning immediately after receiving the MMR vaccine. Even though he can not find a clear scientific relationship between MMR and autism, Wakefield says that he should not use MMR vaccine.
