  • A study involving 370 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) aimed to identify the characteristics of those with regressive ASD and evaluate rehabilitation effects after one year of behavioral intervention.
  • Results showed that 28.38% of the children experienced regression in social communication and language skills, with regressive ASD children displaying more severe symptoms and lower developmental levels compared to non-regressive ASD children.
  • After one year, while all children with ASD showed symptom reduction, those with regressive ASD saw less improvement, especially among children older than 4, highlighting the need for early intervention for this group.
