Journal Title: Journal of Clinical Pediatrics - Year 2025, Vol 43, Issue 4
Abstract
Sleep disorders are one of the most common comorbidities in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), which not only impair the child's daytime function, but also aggravate the symptoms of ASD, and significantly reduce the quality of life of children with ASD and their families. Therefore, timely and effective intervention and management of children with ASD with comorbid sleep disorders is of great significance to improve the health, social function and quality of life of children. This article reviews the progress in the treatment of sleep disorders in children with ASD, aiming to improve the understanding of autism among clinicians.
