An Association Between Autism in Children and Cardiometabolic Diseases

As many as 1 in 44 children are diagnosed with autism, and those with ASD are at greater risk of obesity. Obesity has been linked to an increased risk of diabetes and other cardiometabolic diseases, including dyslipidemia. Researchers say physicians should monitor children with ASD for signs of cardiometabolic disorders.
