Biological risk factors:

• Genetic Predisposition
• Medical illness
• Poor response to Medication
• Poor sleep

Mental disorders in humans with older age are a challenging psychological research for the Geriatric psychiatrists. In developing countries, this field is becoming more needed when the population ages.

Neurodevelopmental disorder is a group of disorders, which affect the development of the nervous system leading to abnormal brain function which may affect emotion, learning ability, self-control & memory. These Neurodevelopmental disorders tend to lasts for a person’s entire lifetime.

Autism spectrum disorder

Autism spectrum disorder is a complex developmental condition that includes major challenges in social interaction, non-verbal communication & restricted/ recitative behaviors.

Keys to remember:

• Treatment can help people to avoid this disease, but this disease can’t be cured.
• Lab test or imaging rarely required
• Chronic can lasts for lifelong

ASD mainly impacts the nervous system & affects the cognitive, emotional, social & physical health of the affected individuals.

Symptoms overview:

• Difficulty in communication with other people
• Restricted interests & repetitive behaviors

Early recognitions as well as behavioral, family & educational therapies may reduce the symptoms & support development with learning. From the early birth to 3 years of age, it is quite possible to reduce the effect of this disorder. Very few research studies have explained about the causes & effect of ASD, i.e. there are mainly three factors by which children are getting mostly affected, such factors are; environmental, biological & genetic factors. Most of the scientists believe that genes are the main impact factor of causing ASD in people. There is 90% chance that people having certain genetic or chromosomal conditions like fragile X-syndrome or tuberous sclerosis might be affected with ASD. Drugs like valproic acid and thalidomide, which are taken by the women during pregnancy, have been linked with a higher risk of ASD. It has been found that there exists a critical condition of getting affected with ASD before, during & after immediate birth of a child. Children born from older parents have a high risk of getting affected with ASD.

ASD continues to be an important public health concern & continuous increase in this disorder is now a big headache for the scientists as there are no medications still discovered to treat this disease.

It is a urgent need to gather global psychiatrists, Doctors, professors, Medical professionals, Neurospecialists, Scientists, academic researchers, scholars & business personal to innovate a genuine solution to get of ASD.

These soma cells mostly control the breathing, swallowing, walking and speaking. Brain Mapping, Cyberknife, Deep Brain Stimulation, Gamma Knife are the mostly used methods to maintain neural disorders.
