Abstract
Background: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is related to social communication difficulties, repetitive behaviors, and highly restricted interests beginning early in life. Currently, ASD is more diagnosed than in the past, and new models are needed. The Advanced Integrative Model (AIM) is a new model in which genes and concomitant medical problems to diagnosis (CMPD) and the impact of their rigorous and adequate treatment are considered.
Methods: The role of a dynamic encephalopathy from which the individual response, susceptibilities in the brain and outside the brain, gut barrier and brain-blood-barrier permeabilities, and the plastic nature of the brain is proposed as a tool for diagnosis. The concomitant medical problems (CMP) are those at and outside the brain. The individual response to treatments of CMP is analyzed.
Results: The AIM allows for classification into 3 main groups and 24 subgroups.
Conclusions: The groups and subgroups in ASD are obtained taking into account CMPD treatments and individual response.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Personalized Medicine (JPM; ISSN 2075-4426) is an international, open access journal aimed at bringing all aspects of personalized medicine to one platform. JPM publishes cutting edge, innovative preclinical and translational scientific research and technologies related to personalized medicine (e.g., pharmacogenomics/proteomics, systems biology). JPM recognizes that personalized medicine—the assessment of genetic, environmental and host factors that cause variability of individuals—is a challenging, transdisciplinary topic that requires discussions from a range of experts. For a comprehensive perspective of personalized medicine, JPM aims to integrate expertise from the molecular and translational sciences, therapeutics and diagnostics, as well as discussions of regulatory, social, ethical and policy aspects. We provide a forum to bring together academic and clinical researchers, biotechnology, diagnostic and pharmaceutical companies, health professionals, regulatory and ethical experts, and government and regulatory authorities.
