Abstract

Objectives The purpose of this review is to investigate the clinical studies of oriental treatment for Autism in China and seek the better methods to study and treat Autism in Korea. Methods We searched for the study at CNKI by keywords, 'Autism', '孤獨症', '自閉症', in the last 5years. Results Selected 14 clinical studies were divided into 6 case reports and 8 control studies. The subjects of clinical study were the average 4-9 years old children. It was described that the symptoms were improved after treatment in 6 case reports. 8 control studies reported that the experimental group were better effective than the comparison group. Frequently used method for treatment was Scalp acupuncture. Conclusions It is promising that we could develop our own treatment and studies for autism in Korea by using Scalp acupuncture, based on these clinical studies.
