Science regarding Treatment-Based Approaches in Autism
by Elizabeth Mumper, MD, Teresa Binstock, Jane Johnson
The authors wish to acknowledge the help of colleagues at the Autism Research Institute for their work in contributing to this bibliography. Autism is a whole-body condition, and there may be multiple etiologies that culminate in common pathways that result in the pattern of behaviors we describe as “autism.” “Autism” as a label does not tell us about the underlying issues that affect the patient, most importantly, immune dysregulation, intestinal inflammation, metabolic abnormalities, neuroinflammation, and other pathologies that have bearing upon cognitive function. When we understand the medical issues, we can begin to most efficiently help the affected individual. The science that substantiates medical issues in autism is sound and has been presented by scientists in the disciplines of gastroenterology, immunology, endocrinology, neuropathology, and toxicology and published in peer-reviewed literature. As a resource for all who are interested in the science that substantiates the Defeat Autism Now! and other treatment-based approaches [Editor’s note: as indicated in the previous article in this magazine], we present following a comprehensive but incomplete bibliography of scientific studies related to autism.
