Golly. It's all very well for Mr head of drug company to say 'it's a very specific case' but how is anyone to know whether their child has an undiagnosed mitochrondrial disorder?

Some research groups (eg Kennedy Krieger) have suggested that a large number of cases of regressive autism involve undiagnosed mild mitochondrial cytopathies. Here for example They think regression following vaccination + mitochondrial cytopathy is reasonably rare - virus + mt cytopathy being more common (in their opinion).

I emailed one of the clincian researchers after hearing him speak (ds1 fitted his description), he passed me onto a paediatric neurologist in Cambridge who passed us onto a local paediatric neurologist. He took the possibility seriously. Unfortunately ds1 is a little too old for the type of testing they use a Kennedy Krieger, and we decided that putting him through a muscle biopsy wasn't fair whilst there's no agreed treatment protocol anyway. Slowly some fairly non-invasive tests are being carried out just in case there's hints of one.

It has been left on the list of possibilities to revisit in detail when technology moves on!

It's an extraordinary judgment, not least because the controversy surrounding Dr. Andrew Wakefield centers on the simple reality that the British medical establishment point blank reject any possible, conceivable connection, however rare, between the onset of autism and vaccines.

Indeed the assertion that vaccines and autism promoted by the medical establishment is such that it doesn't even allow for the possibility of such a concept as a 'mitochondrial disorder' being perhaps hastened or triggered in an another state by a vaccine.

In response to the credibility gap, there have been accusations that women have been accused of deliberately causing harm to their children by medical authorities and social workers. The children concerned have symptoms identical to AS Spectrum disorders and the mechanism for how women perform this feat is not yet known to science.

saintlydamemrsturnip - I don't know if this is any use for autism, but some people with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome have had a blood test called the Acumen ATP Profile - it is a test for mitochondrial dysfunction. www.ijcem.com/812001A.html
