问个问题吧,关于儿童自闭症

据我所知,自闭症主要原因是体内重金属超标。建议去医院查体内重金属含量。如果确诊,要改吃ORGANIC FOOD。
另外,音乐可以启发自闭症孩子和外界交流的欲望。如果是在OTTAWA的自闭症孩子,可以去

谢谢,一定转达

那不是自闭症的主要原因。

If there is anything that is unclear to you, please free to ask questions.

以下是来自UpToDate 关于自闭症的原因:
UpToDate 是一个相当权威的医学资料,全世界的医生都用它帮助making clinical decisions. 这个资料一年的subscription fee is about $600 (from my family doctor).

The pathogenesis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is incompletely understood. The general consensus is that ASD has a genetic etiology, which alters brain development, affecting social and communication development and leading to restricted interests and repetitive behavior。 Supporting this is the "epigenetic theory", in which an abnormal gene is turned "on" early in fetal development and affects the expression of other genes that are not mutated themselves。

关于治疗:
1. Treatment for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) focuses on behavioral and educational interventions that target the core symptoms of ASD (ie, deficits in social communication/interaction and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests and activities.

2. Pharmacologic interventions (吃药) may be used to address medical or psychiatric comorbidities or provide symptom control but do not treat the core deficits。

3. Specific treatment programs should be individualized according to the child's functioning and needs [2]. Treatment programs should be monitored to ensure appropriate response to therapy. The program should be reviewed and modified as the child's needs change over time.

关于非常规治疗方法,这里我们简称为CAM。 CAM = Complementary and alternative medicine。
因为自闭症很少能完全治好,所以很多家长尝试非常规治疗方法,比如说草药,食疗还有维生素等等。下面是关于非常规治疗方法的总结:

1. Although complementary and alternative (CAM) therapies are frequently used by families of children with ASD, few such therapies have been proven effective (or ineffective) or safe in controlled trials。

2. If deciding to use complementary and alternative (CAM) therapies, do inform the physician and other health care professionals. This is because CAM therapies may compete with validated treatments for time, effort, and financial resources.

a) 以下几种是没有证据证明其有用,但是也没有害处的疗法 (有时间可以试一试):
music therapy, yoga, acupuncture, qigong massage, therapeutic touch, healing touch, Reiki, and neurofeedback


b) 有充分的证据证明其无用 (也就是说不要浪费时间和金钱了):
1. Secretin — Secretin is a gastrointestinal hormone. It inhibits intestinal motility and release of gastric acid and stimulates secretion of pancreatic fluid and bicarbonate. The use of secretin as a potential therapy for children with ASD is based upon the hypothesis that autism is related to gastrointestinal abnormalities。有人认为自闭症是消化系统有毛病,但是这个theory 已经被充分的证据给否决了。

2. Facilitated communication — Facilitated communication is a technique in which a facilitator physically guides the hand of a nonverbal child in using an output device (eg, keyboard, mouse, etc) for communication [42]. Reviews of published studies of facilitated communication found no evidence to support its use for individuals with communication impairment [66].

c) 没有证据证明其有效,而且反而有危险的一些疗法 (避免):
immunoglobulin: 抗体疗法。认为自闭症和小孩的免疫系统有关。

chelation therapy:螯合疗法。 这个疗法的作用就是排除体内的重金属。资料很明确的的说道这个理论(重金属导致自闭症)是错误的,而且这种疗法不安全。

hyperbaric oxygen therapy:高压氧疗法。这个疗法认为这样可以增加大脑的供氧,并且治疗自闭症。没用,并且危险。

transcranial magnetic stimulation:頭顱磁刺激療法。有一些study认为这个疗法在depression, bipolar illness, schizophrenia, epilepsy, and Tourette syndrome 里有一些benefit. 但是在自闭症里缺少证据并且有可能会造成昏迷。

d)除了上面提到的以外,few of the remaining CAM therapies have been proven effective/ineffective or safe/unsafe in controlled trials. In such cases, the clinician and family must weigh the unknown benefit against the potential risks, which include competition with validated treatment for time, effort, and financial resources.

这些包括:
melatonin,
Omega-3 fatty acids,
Gluten-free casein-free diet,
Vitamin B6+magnesium,
Dimethylglycine,
probiotics,
Antifungal agents
Vitamin C / Zinc

总而言之,要用这些非常规治疗办法前,先咨询医师!

祝好运。

谢谢楼上的,你的资料很有帮助,俺存了。
 
我发现孩子跟孩子更容易敞开心扉,也许可以试试找个比较活泼话痨的同龄小孩跟这小孩做朋友,这样也许会带动他变得开朗open些。
 
自闭症应该一直有,只是过去大家不知道有这个病,只觉得家里生了个笨孩子,或怪孩子而已。以前一般家里几个孩子,如果一个有问题也就认了。而且这个和产妇产纪也有关系。年龄大生的孩子,特别是男孩子风险更大。得了自闭症是不幸的,要积极面对,而不是否认(deny)。

谢谢,俺也想,也许独生子有关,毕竟太孤单了。

当爹妈的很重要。 多下功夫吧, 孩子是来要债的。

灿妈,你是高人。都被你说中了,高龄产妇,男孩儿,而且的确最初以为孩子嘴笨,连医生都那么说,后来几次才确诊。赞你厉害!

太难过了,那大胖小子,白白胖胖的,圆嘟嘟,肉呼呼,看着就让人喜欢。怎么想到得了自闭症。
 
据说是遗传病,所以难治。

遗传,我看不一定准确。即便如此,也得治疗;爷爷奶奶姥姥姥爷父母,都很正常。尤其是姥姥和孩子她妈,都是当教师的,挺健谈的,不可能有这个遗传基因。

唉,也不是厉害,只是已知的例子中,都是这个规律。
 
自闭症男孩和女孩的患病比率是4:1。男孩子危险更大。
