What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder (NDD) that affects about 78 million people worldwide. Its prevalence and degree of impact on individuals and families place it among disorders of global importance. ASD resulted in 4.31 million (95% UI 2.82-6.23) global Disability-Adjusted Life Years (DALYs) in 2019, equivalent to 0.2% (0.1-0.2) of DALYs and contributed to 3.4% (2.7-4.3) of DALYs for the aggregate of mental disorders. Evidence shows that early and tailored intervention limits the impact of symptomatology and improves the quality of life of people with ASD and other NDDs and their families. Early identification of clinical signs (red flags) is the first step to facilitating prompt referral for an assessment and diagnosis. In many cases, features of ASD/NDDs manifest early in development (first 6-12 months), although the specificity of these signs is still unc
