ABSTRACT
Restricted and repetitive behaviors is the characteristic clinical manifestation of many neuropsychiatric diseases, which seriously affects the work, study and daily communication of patients, and brings huge mental and economic burden to the family and society.Its causes are complex and its manifestations are diverse.Current studies have shown that microglia is closely related to the occurrence of restricted and repetitive behaviors, and the in-depth study of microglia has become a research hotspot to explore the mechanism of restricted and repetitive behaviors.In recent years, studies have found that restricted and repetitive behaviors of various neuropsychiatric diseases (such as frontotemporal dementia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, autism spectrum disorder) are related to microglia.However, reliable evidence for the exact mechanism of microglia involved in restricted and repetitive behaviors remains lacking.This article reviews the recent research progress of microglia involved in restricted and repetitive behaviors.It is expected to provide a new theoretical basis and therapeutic targeting cell for the development and treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases related to restricted and repetitive behaviors in the future.
ABSTRACT
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by difficulties in social communication and interaction, restricted and repetitive behaviors, interests and activities, and abnormal perception.Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is one of the common comorbid mental diseases of ASD.Accurate identification of the obsessive-compulsive symptoms and OCD comorbidity of ASD and early intervention are essential for the prognosis of patients.However, there are few domestic studies on comorbid OCD in ASD.Based on previous studies abroad, the progress of research on the epidemiology, etiology and neural mechanism, clinical characteristics, evaluation, diagnosis, intervention and treatment of comorbid OCD in ASD was reviewed in this paper.It aims to identify the manifestations of OCD in ASD patients in the early stage and improve the prognosis of patients.
