Childhood autism is one of the topical health problems in the world, which is determined not so much by the frequency of childhood autism (СHA) in the child population - from 4 to 26 per 10,000 children [3, 8, 15], but by the social significance and insufficient knowledge of the etiology and pathogenesis this disease [2, 9, 10]. Today, autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are widely regarded as neurodevelopmental disorders implying a sharply disharmonious development of the brain and the formation of neural connections [6, 13]. Despite the increase in the incidence of these types of disorders, the awareness of the public and specialists about the problem is extremely low [5, 11].
