Did you know that many historians have concluded that the famous Austrian music composer Mozart was most likey autistic? Historians came to this conclusion due to his expressing well-known traits like repetition in movement, intense interest in specific objects, and a lack of sociability.

The term Austism was first coined in 1908 but was considered a symptom of schizophrenia. It was only in the early 1970’s when it was recognized that autism and schizophrenia were in fact distinct psychiatric conditions. And from the early 1980’s, more research on autism started taking place. Come 2023, Stem Cell Treatment For Autism in India is one of the revolutionary treatments that we have for such diseases.

What Is Autism?

Autism is a neurodevelopmental disorder that can affects the behavioral patterns in a human. It includes how people interact with others, communicate, learn, and behave. Autism can be diagnosed in children as young as 2 years old. Autism is considered to be a spectrum disorder as the symptoms tend to manifest differently in each person.

What Causes Autism?

There are many theories put forward by researchers to explain the cause of manifestation. Mainly, autism is a genetic disorder, with a number of genes involved. In some children, autism spectrum disorder can be associated with a genetic disorder, such as Rett syndrome or fragile X syndrome. For other children, genetic changes (mutations) may increase the risk of autism spectrum disorder.

Some genetic mutations seem to be inherited, while others occur spontaneously.

How Is Autism Diagnosed?

Diagnosis of autism is often difficult as there are no formalised tests, unlike other disorders like cancer. Doctors look at the child’s behavior and development to make a diagnosis. ASD can sometimes be detected at 18 months of age or younger. By age 2, a diagnosis by an experienced professional can be considered reliable. However, many children do not receive a final diagnosis until they are much older.

How To Treat Autism?

Conventional treatments available aim to reduce the behavioual symptoms that interfere with the patient’s daily life. Each treatment plan is tailor-made due to the uniqueness of the disorder.

What Is The Latest Treatment For Autism?

• Reduction of aggressive behavior and hyperactivity
• Improvement of eye contact and attention span
• Improvement in communication and social skills

The theory behind bone marrow transplant treatment for autism in India is that stem cells move to locations of harm, change into new tissue cells, and replace the damaged ones. Multipotent stem cells, such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), can renew and differentiate into nerve cells, blood cells, muscle cells, and so on. This, in turn, repairs the autistic child’s damaged nerve cells and halts disease progression. The autistic children’s behaviour, social, and learning capacities improved significantly following stem cell treatment.
