Abstract:
Autism spectrum disorder（ASD）is a group of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by social communication and interaction disorders，as well as repetitive stereotyped behaviors，with unclear etiology.At present，domestic and foreign studies have shown that gut microbiota imbalance is commonly present in ASD，and reshaping the gut microbiota has become a hot topic in the treatment of ASD.The relevant intervention methods mainly include probiotics，prebiotics，and microbiota transplantation.However，its beneficial effects on ASD are still limited and uncertain，and more large-scale and in-depth research is still needed in the future to explore the optimal treatment options.This article reviews the changes in gut microbiota in children with ASD and the research progress on gut microbiota intervention，aiming to provide new ideas for early diagnosis and treatment intervention of ASD.
