Metabolic Profile of Children with Autism: Implications for Oxidative Stress and Methylation
The Librarian
This study explores the metabolic profile of children with autism and investigates the potential of targeted nutritional interventions to improve their metabolic imbalances. The findings suggest that autistic children may have an increased vulnerability to oxidative stress and a reduced capacity for methylation, which could contribute to the development and clinical manifestation of autism. The…

Study Finds Impaired Antioxidant Status in Autistic Children in Saudi Arabia
The Librarian
A recent study conducted in Saudi Arabia investigated the relationship between sulfur-dependent detoxification pathways, oxidative stress, and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) by analyzing metabolic biomarkers related to these mechanisms in autistic children. The study found impaired antioxidant status in Saudi autistic children compared to controls, highlighting the potential role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis…
