Article Synopsis
  • The study examined the oral microbiota of young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), finding notable differences in microbial composition compared to typically developing (TD) children.
  • Analysis of dental plaque samples from 25 ASD children and 30 TD children revealed lower bacterial diversity in the ASD group and identified six specific species present in ASD children that were not found in TD children, indicating potential biomarkers for ASD.
  • The research suggests that differences in oral microbiota may play a role in understanding ASD and points to the need for further validation of these findings for early detection and management of the disorder.
