Abstract

Autism refers to a developmental disorder that affects social contact; attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is manifested as the disability of attention with hyperactivity, which interferes with function or brain development. Currently, the prevalence of both diseases showed an upward trend. Therefore, the importance of finding the correct diagnosis and improving effective treatment is becoming more and more urgent. For children suspected of autism and ADHD, choosing the correct diagnosis method can not only help clarify the symptoms and formulate effective treatment plans, but also reduce the pain and family economic burden caused by the children's own symptoms, and avoid the risk of misdiagnosis. At the same time, autism and ADHD should receive the timely and effective intervention. The paper here aims at introducing and comparing the diagnostic methods and treatment methods for the two diseases according to their commonalities and differences.
