These studies suggest that autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors, characterized by impairments in social communication, repetitive behaviors, and sensory behaviors, with a prevalence of just under 1% worldwide.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in social communication and the presence of restricted interests and repetitive behaviors. The prevalence of ASD has been increasing, with current estimates suggesting it affects approximately 1% of the population. This synthesis aims to provide a cohesive overview of the key insights from recent research on ASD, focusing on its epidemiology, genetic factors, neuroanatomy, and interventions.

Impact on Families
ASD is a complex and heterogeneous neurodevelopmental disorder with a significant genetic component and subtle neuroanatomical differences. The prevalence of ASD is increasing, partly due to changes in diagnostic criteria. Effective interventions, both pharmacological and non-pharmacological, can improve specific behaviors and overall quality of life. The impact of ASD extends beyond the individual, profoundly affecting family dynamics and necessitating comprehensive support systems. Further research is essential to better understand the genetic and environmental factors contributing to ASD and to develop more effective, individualized treatments.
