ABSTRACT
Although already none doubt that the autism spectrum disorders (ASD) constitute a myriad of clinical syndromes, linked to neurodevelopment, there are still many questions that need be answered. Thus, researchers focus their efforts in genetic disorders that are in the origin of secondary autism, for to know more aboutprimary autism (or idiopathic), whose concrete cause is ignored. Delving into this, we review here recent findings in the research of such disorders, convinced that there is a primary-secondary autism continuum that rigorous studies in molecular genetics must show. However, there is much pathology with autistic behaviors whose etiology remains still unknown. In this line, aside from books, were selected indexed articles in MEDLINE, published from 2008 to 2015, related to advances in genetic research and diagnosis from autistic spectrum disorder. Like key words were used "autism", and the paired-words combinations of "autism and etiology", "autism and neurodevelopment" and "autism and genetics".
RESUMEN
Aunque ya nadie duda que los trastornos del espectro autista (TEA) conformen una miríada de síndromes clínicos, vinculados al neurodesarrollo, aún existen muchos interrogantes por responder. Por ello, distintos investigadores centran sus esfuerzos en los trastornos genéticos causantes del autismo secundario, para así saber más del autismo primario (o idiopático), cuya causa concreta se ignora. Ahondando en esto, se revisan aquí hallazgos recientes obtenidos en la investigación de tales trastornos, al creer que existe un continuo entre el autismo primario y su homólogo secundario, que estudios rigurosos en genética molecular deberán evidenciar. No obstante, hay diversidad de patologías con conductas autistas cuya etiología aún se ignora. En tal línea, además de libros, se seleccionaron artículos indexados en MEDLINE, publicados entre 2008 y 2015, relacionados con avances en la investigación genética y diagnóstico del espectro autista. Como palabras claves se utilizaron "autismo", y las combinaciones "autismo y etiología", "autismo y neurodesarrollo" y "autismo y genética".
