  7. I seen this today and thought it might be of interest Autism Study hildren with autism do not react differently to other youngsters to the MMR jab, a study shows. London's Guy's and St Thomas's Hospital found no difference in the immune response to the jab in a study of 240 children aged between 10 and 12. Fears about a link between the two were first raised in 1998, prompting a drop in uptake of the vaccine, but that research has now been discredited. Studies since have shown there is no link and that has been confirmed again. The research, partly funded by the Department of Health and published in the Archives of Disease in Childhood, is the largest of its kind. I hope that this study will reassure them that there is no evidence linking the MMR vaccine to autism Professor David Salisbury, of the Department of Health Previous studies have mainly looked for a possible link by examining autism trends in large groups of populations. But the Guy's and St Thomas's team analysed blood samples of 240 children aged 10 to 12 to see if the MMR jab had caused an abnormal immune response that could have triggered autism. This would have been indicated by increased antibody levels, but the researchers found no difference in the three groups they studied - children with autism, those without and those with special educational needs. While all the children had had the first MMR jab, not all of them went on to have the second needed for maximum immunity. The children who developed autism or special educational needs were the most likely not to have had the follow up jab - an indication of the public suspicion surrounding the safety of MMR. Researcher Dr David Brown said: "The study found no evidence linking MMR to autistic spectrum disorder and the paper adds to the overwhelming body of evidence from around the world supporting the use of MMR." The Lancet medical journal published research by Dr Andrew Wakefield which led to the possibility being raised of a link between the jab and the condition in 1998. Claims The journal subsequently distanced itself from the study of 12 children after it emerged Dr Wakefield had received funding to support legal action by a group of parents who claimed their children were damaged by the vaccine. Dr Andrew Wakefield is currently appearing before the General Medical Council on charges relating to the claims. But all this was after the publication had had an impact. The up-take of the triple-jab slumped in the immediate aftermath and is still under the 95% needed for herd immunity in some places, particularly London. The number of confirmed measles cases has risen from 56 in 1998 in England and Wales to just under 1,000 in 2007, according to provisional data. However, the impact of MMR on these figures is not clear. Professor David Salisbury, director of immunisation at the Department of Health, said: "It's natural for parents to worry about the health and well-being of their children and I hope that this study will reassure them that there is no evidence linking the MMR vaccine to autism." But Jackie Fletcher, from Jabs campaign group, said the conclusions were misleading. "It is making a leap from having the actual data on the antibodies and saying MMR does not cause autism."
  8. Being grouchy is a privilege afforded by hitting your 40's. I take great pleasure at times as being referred to as a grumpy F*cker by some of me younger colleagues
  9. Here's my son Scott in a kilt we bought him at the weekend for a friends wedding in a couple of weeks. He was so pleased with it, unfortunately I only took it with my camera phone. I will make sure we both get our photo taken at the wedding with our kilts on. http://i178.photobucket.com/albums/w254/sodor/scottinkilt.jpg

  13. QUOTE (Sword and Armor @ Dec 31 2007, 07:55 PM) The greatest thing about getting a new album was seeing the artwork and other "goodies" inside. The worst thing was when there was nothing but a plain plastic sleeve. That's what I miss about vinyl too. I hardly ever take the CD art work out to look at. I am tempted to get my turntable and vinyl out of the attic but to be honest I never seem to find the time to do so. My wife wouldn't want me to clutter up out sitting room (we have a very nice digital sytem in the house which she prefers). I think me study could do me enhanced with my vinyl collection, although there are a few howlers in there too. Something else I probably won't get round to doing in 2008.

  21. QUOTE (Godeater2112 @ Aug 29 2007, 04:09 PM) Again - I'm not exactly known for my celebrity compassion. Hundreds of thousands of people are emotionally sick, and piles of people including people close to me try to kill themselves and often succeed. At least buddy here can take part of the 75 million in his bank account and go get some good help for his problems. Most people are helpless and alone in their suffering. I feel sorry for anyone suffering from mental illness that leads to someone going as far as trying to kill themselves 75 million or not.
