Interesting stuff :)

I have heard about this.

That is really interesting. There appears to be a rise in the incidence of autistic spectrum disorders ( or perhaps we are just better at diagnosing it), however, there is also an increase in interfering in pregnancy, with induction, forceps, Caesarean section etc, could a more rapid birth in humans also be significant? Definitely an area for further research.

Makes you wonder for sure. But also is there more of it, or are we better at recognising it?

That is fascinating.

Thanks for sharing. I'm going to try in big dopey caesarean calves.

Will be really interesting to see if you find it helps

Interesting article, along with my OH we provide full time respite care for 8 young people (not all at the same time ~ 2 a night) ) with special needs, 6 of which have autism. The numbers are high because it has become more reconised and diagnosing is being picked up quicker with schools, nursery, health workers etc being more aware. The national autistic society by the 2011 census identified 1 in 100 people have asd. More recent research (off the top of my head by Simon Baron Cohen). Suggest the prevalance is more like 1 in 60 people have asd. Also a lot of adults who were not diagnosed when they were children are now being diagnosed.

Very interesting research. The Supervet TV programmes make the point there's a place for greater cross-fertilisation of veterinary with human medical research.
