AUTISM PREVENTION FATHER BABIES 24-34 PATERNAL AGE IS KEY IN NON-FAMILIAL AUTISMVaccines

"It is very possible that PATERNAL AGE is the major predictor of(non-familial) autism." Harry Fisch, M.D., author "The Male Biological Clock". Sperm DNA mutates and autism, schizophrenia bipolar etc. results. What is the connection with autoimmune disorders? Having Type 1 diabetes, SLE,etc. in the family, also if mother had older father. NW Cryobank will not accept a sperm donor past 35th BD to minimize genetic abnormalities.VACCINATIONS also cause autism.

(1) Psychosis in general is, as suggested by Book (1953) and Lewis (1958) for schizophrenia, associated with a high rate of mutation. (2) The new mutations occur at a specific site (a 'hot-spot') in the genome and consist of rearrangements (e.g. transpositions or new insertions occurring as a result of unequal recombination) in a sequence which has a degree of potential autonomy, i.e. an integrated pathogen or 'virogene'. (3) The mutations occur specifically in the courses of gametogenesis in the male. By its location in the scrotal sac and its extended time course, gametogenesis in the male is susceptible to insertional mutagenesis as a function of variations in environmental temperature. Such temperature-dependent mutations are reflected in the seasonality of birth seen in both schizophrenic and affective illnesses

The increased likelihood of such mutations occurring with time is held to account for the association of psychosis with increased paternal age. (4) Such new events are held responsible not only for 'sporadic' cases in individuals without a family history of psychosis, but also for increases in severity of illness between generations. Psychosis is viewed as a continuum extending from unipolar through bipolar affective disorder and schizoaffective illness to schizophrenia with increasing degrees of defect.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
