Findings of the National Institutes of Health, a study conducted on 112 children, questions the widespread belief regarding autism. It says that young children suffering from autism can come out of the disease. A Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry also reaffirms the fact. Experts have warned to delve more into the reality. It has asked for more work.

Dr Deborah Fein and her team at the University of Connecticut studied 34 children who had been diagnosed with autism worked as efficiently like other 34 children in their class. On observation, it was found that they looked very similar to their peers. No visible signs of language, communication and face recognition problems were witnessed.

Again 44 children were studied. These children belonged to high autism group. They seemed to be less affected by the social conditions. Looking at the previous group, it was seen that they had suffered less social deficits. Certain behavior pattern still existed in them.

Findings have faced good amount of suspicion but has also opened new doors for range of possible outcomes, says Dr Thomas Insel, director of the National Institute of Mental Health. It is being expected that earlier findings on children could have been because they might have outgrown their condition.
