Discussion on Disease Mechanism of Autism Spectrum Disorders from the Concepts of “Vital Activity” and “Qi Configuration”
This paper explored the disease mechanism of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) from the perspectives of “vital activity” and “
qi
configuration”, and it is believed that “vital activity” represents the internal regulatory mechanisms of the human body, while “
qi
configuration” represents the ability of the body to communicate and adapt to the external environment. Abnormal genetic factors lead to the extinction of vital activity in children with ASD, resulting in increased susceptibility to ASD. Environmental instability leads to the solitary
qi
configuration in ASD, triggering and exacerbating the manifestations of ASD on the basis of genetic susceptibility. In addition, epigenetic mechanisms also play an important role in the pathogenesis of ASD. Imbalances in vital activity and disruptions in
qi
configuration result in failure in
qi
transformation of

organs, with abnormal symptoms manifested through the five orifices. It is proposed that the treatment of ASD should aim to achieve a harmonious interaction between “vital activity” and “
qi
configuration” to accelerate the recovery of affected children.
