Measles, mumps, and rubella vaccination and bowel problems or developmental regression in children with autism: population study.

TL;DR: Findings provide no support for an MMR associated “new variant” form of autism with developmental regression and bowel problems, and further evidence against involvement of MMR vaccine in the initiation of autism.

Explaining the Increase in the Prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorders: The Proportion Attributable to Changes in Reporting Practices

TL;DR: Changes in reporting practices can account for most of the increase in the observed prevalence of ASDs in children born from 1980 through 1991 in Denmark, and this study supports the argument that the apparent increase in AsDs in recent years is in large part attributable to changes in reporting Practices.

Time trends in autism and in MMR immunization coverage in California.

TL;DR: The authors found no correlation between the early childhood MMR immunization rates in California and the number of children with autism and were enrolled in California's regional service center system, and therefore did not suggest an association between MMR immunisation among young children and an increase in autism occurrence.

Abnormal intestinal permeability in children with autism.

TL;DR: It is speculated that an altered intestinal permeability could represent a possible mechanism for the increased passage through the gut mucosa of peptides derived from foods with subsequent behavioural abnormalities.
Journal ArticleDOI

A neurochemical theory of autism

TL;DR: Panksepp et al. as discussed by the authors put forward the idea that autism is an emotional disturbance arising from an upset in the opiate systems in the brain, and hence proposed, as a possibility, opiate antagonist therapy for the autistic syndrome.
