Abstract Autism is a spectrum of developmental disorders characterized by impairments in social interaction, communication, often accompanied by stereotypical behaviors. The high prevalence of this disorder has raised the need to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms that would help in both diagnosis and treatment of the disorder. This review talks about a variety of diagnostic and treatment strategies and therapeutic targets of patent documents from various companies, universities, hospitals, research and developing organizations. We have identified and reported the leading assignees and their patenting activities over the time period, trends, geographical distributions, international patent classification analysis and the like.
