Otizm ve kanser arasındaki ilişki

Abstract

Otizm spektrum bozukluğu (OSB), erken çocuklukta başlayan bir dizi gelişim bozukluğuna işaret etmektedir. Doğumdan sonraki ilk üç yıl içinde, otizm spektrum bozukluğunun erken uyarı belirtileri görünür hale gelmektedir İletişimdeki zorluklar, konuşma gecikmeleri ve sosyalleşme problemlerinden kaynaklanmaktadır. Eğitim ve tedavi kısmen fayda sağlasa da bu durumu tamamen tedavi edebilecek etkili ilaçlar veya cerrahi teknikler bulunmamaktadır. Araştırmacılar, otizm ile nörolojik, gastrointestinal ve kanser hastalıklarının gelişme riskinin artması arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemiştir. Otizm ve kanser arasındaki ilişki hakkında kapsamlı bir araştırma ise net olarak ortaya konmamıştır. Bununla birlikte, otizmle ilgili kanser riskinin bu özel yönüne bakmak, genlere ve yollara özellikle dikkat etmek önemlidir. Makalenin amacı, otizm ile kanser arasındaki olası bir ilişkiye dair mevcut kanıtları literatürdeki çalışmalar ışığında inceleyerek bütüncül bir bakış açısı sunmaktır.

Relationship Between Autism and Cancer

Abstract

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) refers to a set of developmental disorders that appear beginning in early infancy. Within the first three years following birth, early warning signs of autism spectrum disorder become apparent. Their difficulties in communicating stem from speech delays as well as difficulties in socializing. Though education and treatment may be somewhat helpful, there are no effective drugs or surgical techniques that can treat it. Researchers have found a relationship between autism and an increased risk of developing neurological, gastrointestinal, and cancer diseases. A comprehensive study of the relationship between autism and cancer has not been clear. Nonetheless, it is important to look into this particular aspect of autism-related cancer risk, paying special attention to the genes and pathways involved. The aim of this article is to provide a holistic perspective by studying the literature of existing evidence on a possible correlation between autism and cancer.
