Autism Report

Autism

Autism spectrum disorder is a set of conditions that cause developmental disabilities, impaired social relationships and communication skills, stereotyped and repetitive behaviors, and attention deficits. The link between genes and autism is still being explored, although predisposing genetic factors have been identified which, acting in synergy with environmental risk factors, can cause the onset of this type of disorder. In a small percentage of cases, autism presents itself in a syndromic form, that is, as one of the possible manifestations of a wider clinical condition, such as, for example, Intellectual Developmental Disorders.

More than 25 genes analyzed

It is recommended if:

This report is particularly suitable for subjects presenting the typical manifestations of autism, in order to identify any genetic mutations and choose the most appropriate interventions for each case. Some mutations linked to autism, in fact, can also lead to other pathological manifestations such as seizures.

List of main conditions:

• Autism/Autism spectrum disorder
• Autism X-Linked
• Developmental Delay With Or Without Dysmorphic Facies And Autism
• Developmental delay with variable intellectual impairment and behavioral abnormalities
