While the article emphasizes the potential of digital technologies in autism diagnosis and treatment, it does not provide sufficient empirical data or case studies demonstrating their efficacy. For instance, how specific digital tools, such as virtual reality or serious games, influence measurable outcomes like neurotransmitter levels or behavioral improvements remains unclear. Could the authors please clarify this?

The nutritional recommendations, such as the promotion of omega-3 fatty acids and probiotics, are well-founded but lack specificity regarding dosage, delivery mechanisms, or individual variations. Additionally, the potential risks of restrictive diets (e.g., ketogenic or gluten-free diets) in children with autism are briefly mentioned but not thoroughly explored. I would appreciate the author’s thoughts on this as well.
