Autism experts in the US have come up with a new intervention programme for toddlers with the neural development disorder.
Findings of a study published in the journal Pediatrics indicated that intensive early intervention can be effective for improving IQ, language ability and social interaction in children with autism as young as 18 months.
Lead researcher Geraldine Dawson, chief science officer of Autism Speaks, said proposed that parents should be offered effective therapies for diagnosed children aged between 18 and 24 months old, as starting treatment as early as possible could help maximise its positive impact.
Co-author of the report Sally Rogers added: "Infant brains are quite malleable so with this therapy we're trying to capitalise on the potential of learning that an infant brain has in order to limit autism's deleterious effects, to help children lead better lives."
Parents can also be taught daily strategies to engage their child and encourage communication at home.
