The origin of autism
The concept of autism was first proposed by Johns Hopkins University expert Leo Canner in 1943, autism is also called autism in medicine, and unlike diseases such as Down syndrome, autism will not affect the face of patients, therefore, the appearance of autistic patients is no different from normal people. In December 2007, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a resolution to designate 2 April as world autism awareness day every year from 2008 onwards to raise awareness of autism and related research and diagnosis, as well as people with autism.
What is autism?
Autism, also known as autism, is now used by psychiatrists and psychologists in the industry to use the term "autism spectrum disorder"
With the improvement of social attention to autism, everyone is not unfamiliar with the words "autism" and "autism", but there are still many misunderstandings about the understanding of the disease itself, and many parents in the clinic talk about "autism" and "autism" discoloration. But actually
Autism ≠ a withdrawn personality
Autism ≠ genius
Autism ≠ language development disorders
Autism ≠ mental retardation
Autism ≠ lifelong disability
Autism ≠ psychosis
Why do I get autism?
The cause of autism is not a single one, and may be a combination of genetic and environmental causes acting on the central nervous system, resulting in the onset of the disease in children
1
heredity
The role of genetic factors on autism spectrum disorder is clear, and there are genes related to autism spectrum disorder on autosomal 2 and 7, and about 15% of patients have genetic mutations. Genealogy studies have found that the prevalence of sibling autism spectrum disorder in patients with autism spectrum disorder is 50%, and the prevalence of homozygotic twins and fraternal twins in autism spectrum disorder is 96% and 27%, respectively.
02
Neurotransmitters
Multiple neurotransmitter dysfunctions are associated with autism spectrum disorders, for example, studies have found abnormalities in the serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmitter and γ-aminobutyric acid suppression systems.
3
Abnormal immune system
Patients with autism spectrum disorder may have a defective immune system, such as studies that have found that the lymphocytes of the fetus respond to maternal antibodies, resulting in an increased likelihood of damage to the fetal nervous system.
Early autism "five noes" behavior
Not to see or see less, not to or less, not to point or to point less, not to speak or to speak less, and to use objects inappropriately and to express inappropriate words. The "five noes" are the earliest manifestations of autism. If parents find that their children have 1-2 of them, they must pay special attention and find a doctor for diagnosis in time.
"Don't look"
Children with autism in a very early age, about in infancy, such as 8 or 9 months, parents will find that the child does not look at the parents at all, such as when the parents talk to their children, and find that the children do not look at themselves with their eyes.
"Shouldn't"
When the family calls this child, he will not look back and will not respond to his parents.
"Not referred to"
Fingers will not use fingers, simply put, it means that there is no posture language, because when children cannot speak, they can use actions to agree or disagree, but autistic children will not shake their heads when they disagree, will not nod when they agree, and will not point their fingers to what they need when they have needs.
4
"Don't say it"
Refers to not actively using language, not expressing their requirements in the way of speaking, and not talking to people.
05
"Improper"
Refers to the child's behavior compared with children of the same age, there is a big difference, the way of behavior is very peculiar, making people feel very difficult to understand, such as very much movement, sometimes play with things that are not toys, such as repeatedly turning on and off the faucet, repeatedly opening and closing the door, repeatedly using their hands to turn the fan, in general, the behavior pattern of autistic children is very inconsistent with age.
