It is clear that these diseases are different, and the psychiatric nosology has evolved in a responsible way since the DSM I 1952 and the DSM II 1968, when Autism was a symptom of Schizophrenia. However, the molecular complexity to refine the etiopathogenesis does not allow yet to close the molecular "gap" that differentiate the molecular genetic of both disorders.
Es claro que ambas enfermedades son claramente distintas y la nosología psiquiátrica ha evolucionado de manera responsable desde el DSM I 1952 y el DSM II 1968, tiempo en el cual era el autismo un síntoma de la esquizofrenia; sin embargo la complejidad molecular para refinar la etiopatogenia aun no permiten cerrar los "gap", moleculares que discriminan la genética molecular de ambos trastornos.
