ABSTRACT

Autism spectrum disorder is a pervasive developmental disorder that occurs before the age of 3 years. It is a disorder of abnormal neurodevelopment in children caused by a combination of genetic and multiple unknown causes. In this paper, we collected a large number of samples of children with autism spectrum disorder from the perspectives of Chinese and Western medicine etiology and Chinese and Western medicine treatment. By systematically summarizing and analyzing the principles of its occurrence, we summarize the most effective ways to solve the problems of children with autism spectrum disorder at present, so that social workers and parents who carry out diagnosis, education and training of children with autism can choose more targeted educational methods or diagnosis methods that are beneficial to children. This will enable more and more autistic children to regain their mental health and move towards a normal life as soon as possible, thus reducing family education and social pressure.
