Abstract

The disorder of the automatic spectrum is a neurodolevating disorder characterized by a decrease in social interactions, communication and stereotypical disorders and repeated behaviors with various degrees of gravity. A number of systematic reviews and meta- analyses have described prenatal and perinatal factors, as well as factors related to maternal nutrition and lifestyle. There is evidence to support the importance of vitamin D in the normal structure and function of the nervous system. The effects of VD administration during pregnancy on the mother and conception before and after birth have been repeatedly investigated. It has been found that preventing VD can reduce the risk of autism.

Highlights

  • Autism is a general disorder among children and children with an estimated frequency of occurrence reached from 20.0 to 116.1 per 10,000 people [1]

  • Some recent studies have suggested that early environmental factors, such as maternal metabolic syndrome during pregnancy, viral and bacterial infections, air pollution, influence of various drugs and nutritional deficits, can play a significant role in the risk of autism

  • Adequate intake of VD appears to be important to physical and mental health worldwide, as evidenced by evidence that VD deficiency may be associated with several diseases such as infections; asthma; inflammatory bowel disease; obesity; metabolic syndrome; neuropsychiatric symptoms, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD) [3]

Summary

RISK FACTORS

Autism is a general disorder among children and children with an estimated frequency of occurrence reached from 20.0 to 116.1 per 10,000 people [1]. Some recent studies have suggested that early environmental factors, such as maternal metabolic syndrome during pregnancy, viral and bacterial infections, air pollution, influence of various drugs and nutritional deficits, can play a significant role in the risk of autism. In recent years, VD has been shown to have significant additional skeletal activity beyond the classically recognized activities [2]. Adequate intake of VD appears to be important to physical and mental health worldwide, as evidenced by evidence that VD deficiency may be associated with several diseases such as infections; asthma; inflammatory bowel disease; obesity; metabolic syndrome; neuropsychiatric symptoms, including autism spectrum disorders (ASD) [3]
