Autism

[ Image Description for the visually impaired: A development of a wall art image by Steve West sees a young woman in leggings featuring a pro-autistic infinity spectrum logo, leaning on a wall with one hand, the other on her hip, and vomiting forth puzzle piece logos for Autism Speaks (a leading anti-autistic hate group), Filicide (the oft apologised-for slaughter of autistic children by parents), ABA (a form of torture committed against autistics to appallingly reprogram them as somebody's 'normal' fake), EIBI and PBS (camouflaged versions of ABA), MMS (commercial bleach used to burn autistic kiddies), and Autism Mom™ (the unacceptable appropriation of autistic's identity by domineering non-autistic mothers) ]

SETTLED AT LAST - AUTISM IS INHERITED GENETICS

The latest meta-analysis (combined analysis of other studies) shows that - like eye colour - autism is all genetic in origin. 98%* of identical twins where one is autistic, so the other.

Not the confusing 90% or 60% of past twins studies**, as skewed by non-identical twin inclusions and weightings. A non-identical twin shares only as much genetic information as any other single-birth sibling (somewhere around 50% likely). No surprise really, as identical twins share twice as much genetic information in common as non-identical twins and single-birth siblings do.

*2% short of 100%? That is a minimal margin of error for current M-CHAT and CAST tests, because at one upper extreme of such testing, a natural 'close call' situation arises, the sensitivity of those tests being subject to constant improvement. 2% might also partly be accounted for by the fact identical twins are not quite as identical as many in society might traditionally presume, for a variety of interesting reasons, and in a variety of ways. We're calling it 100%.

**The errors in those previous studies were many, but the main one was the spoiling of data-impacts by unnecessarily mixing-in non-identical twin data - as a result of being fixated on dead-end searches for a motley group of pet proposed environmental factors now explainable by other impacts.
