Короткий опис (реферат):
Relevance. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a genetically determined condition
characterized by impairments in social interaction, verbal and non-verbal
communication, and restricted interests and activities. The substantial social context
of ASD generates potential bioethical challenges for affected children and significantly
influences the quality of life (QoL) of their caregivers.
Aim. To identify key bioethical issues and assess the quality of life of caregivers
of children with ASD.
Materials and Methods. A survey was conducted among 125 caregivers of children
with ASD, divided into two groups: Group 1: 89 children with ASD combined with
functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGIDs) and Group 2: 36 children with isolated
ASD.
