BTW, the number of vaccines, timing, breastfeeding and the prevalence of autism in Poland should be also considered to analyze these results<br /> <br />Second, what confounders were analyzed in the manuscript prenatal, neonatal and postnatal?<br /> <br />Third, how the manuscript matches with these recent published results- that consider the clinical aspects- not the epidemiological ones and the one exploring plausibility?<br /><br />1-<br />www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22163375 (open)<br />2-REcent studies of thimerosal in rats from Poland and on TNFa expresion?<br />Four, what were the diagnosis of the children and what number of children were vaccinated with TCV and what number of children were vaccinated with thimerosal free vaccines?<br />Five, what is the complete schedule of vaccination in Poland and how it is compared to USA-UK in number and timing?<br />Six, what kind of significance statistical analysis was performed and what diagnosis were considered?<br />Why the conclusion with the statistics?<br /><br />Seven, why so simple questions are still done when it is known that autism has epigenetic components, multiple stressors- not only vaccines but also combination of vaccines and antibiotics and antipyretics and their impact in susceptible individuals with an incredible heterogeneous presentation?<br />Eight under this question, other vaccines such as MMR without thimerosal- varicella or the hepattis A vaccines were not included and they should- if autism is correlated with a neuroimmune hypothesis<br />Nine considering all the above, the frame is very incomplete to obtain such conclussions, especially when tics are known to be correlate with thimerosal exposure and at this point thimerosal should be considered sinergic with aluminium in the potential of damage in vulnerable individuals- if vaccines are considered- to begin with (thinking in ASIA conditions and Myofasciitis macrophagica).<br />Ten without the consideration of confounders and a new deep analysis of the anecdotic evidence plus the associated clinical findings, no useful conclusions are going to be obtained<br />MLAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1892134081049774386.post-58107199564708983912011-12-23T09:03:57.553-05:002011-12-23T09:03:57.553-05:00I'm still trying to understand if thimerosal c...I'm still trying to understand if thimerosal caused autism, why there would not have been a corresponding decrease in pertussis which would have been of a much greater magnitude than the autism increase in prevalence.
