*MMR-Vaccine and Regression in Autism Spectrum Disorders: Negative
Results Presented from Japan.*

J Autism Dev Disord. 2006 Jul 25;

Authors: Uchiyama T, Kurosawa M, Inaba Y

It has been suggested that the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine (MMR)
is a cause of regressive autism. As MMR was used in Japan only between
1989 and 1993, this time period affords a natural experiment to examine
this hypothesis. Data on 904 patients with autism spectrum disorders
(ASD) were analyzed. During the period of MMR usage no significant
difference was found in the incidence of regression between
MMR-vaccinated children and non-vaccinated children. Among the
proportion and incidence of regression across the three
MMR-program-related periods (before, during and after MMR usage), no
significant difference was found between those who had received MMR and
those who had not. Moreover, the incidence of regression did not change
significantly across the three periods.

What! Trying to spoil a perfectly good argument with facts - how dare
you!

I can be annoying that way. I have RSS feeds set up so that I get the
abstracts as soon as they are posted.

I have one for regression and thimerosal.
