A recent study based on the combination of biochemical tests and assessment of predictive behavior showed promising outcome in detecting autism in children. The test was 98% accurate to detect autism. Clinicians can effectively use the wealth of information provided by novel studies to diagnose and evaluate patients with autism syndrome. The Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) has increased dramatically over the last four decades and still, there is considerable debate regarding the underlying pathophysiology of ASD.
Lack of biological knowledge restricts faster diagnosis based on behavioral observations and psychometric tools. However, recent advancement of autism research should support and improve behavioral diagnosis tools in future. Incorporating biochemical data into ASD diagnosis is the first step towards enhancing this tool. This article reports the findings of a recent research…
