GEN: Autism UpdateFrom: art fougner, md (evsono@pipeline.com)Fri Mar 16 05:52:02 2007
You mean it's NOT vaccines? Jonathan Sebat, Michael Wigler and their colleagues found that 10 percent of the 195 autistic patients they studied had evidence of tiny spontaneous chromosomal mutations -- each with a different gene involved. Ultimately, Sebat said he believes this could help some parents who are seeking to have more children but fearful that they will take another genetic hit with their next child. A spontaneous mutation means it is not inherited. http://www.newsday.com/news/health/ny-hsauti0316,0,6024589.story?coll=ny-leadhealthnews-headlines Art

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
