Growing number of chemicals linked with brain disorders in children — ScienceDailyToxic chemicals may be triggering the recent increases in neurodevelopmental disabilities among children — such as autism, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and dyslexia — according to a new study from Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The researchers say a new global prevention strategy to control the use of these substances is urgently needed. The report will be published online February 15, 2014 in Lancet Neurology. "The greatest concern is the large numbers of children who are affected by toxic damage to brain development in the absence of a formal diagnosis. They suffer reduced attention span, delayed development, and poor school performance. Industrial chemicals are now emerging as likely causes," said Philippe Grandjean, adjunct professor of environmental health at HSPH. The report follows up on a similar review conducted by the authors in 2006 that identified five industrial chemicals as "developmental neurotoxicants," or chemicals that can cause brain deficits. The new study offers updated findings about those chemicals and adds information on six newly recognized ones, including manganese, fluoride, chlorpyrifos and DDT (pesticides), tetrachloroethylene (a solvent), and the polybrominated diphenyl ethers (flame retardants). The study outlines possible links between these newly recognized neurotoxicants and negative health effects on children, including: - Manganese is associated with diminished intellectual function and impaired motor skills
- Solvents are linked to hyperactivity and aggressive behavior
- Certain types of pesticides may cause cognitive delays (...)

From ARI: Social impairments common to those with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, previously known as DiGeorge syndrome, can resemble symptoms of autism. As a result, many children with this condition, estimated to be as high as 50%, are classified with autism spectrum disorder. However, the two conditions may be unrelated because treatments designed for those with autism may exacerbate anxiety among individuals with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. < http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10803-013-1920-x >

I thought it was. I could have sworn I read that in some basic literature. Maybe it was something "observed" but never actually studied.

What're your thoughts on the DSM V changes and taking Asperger's out as a diagnosis?
I think Shrinks and Pharma have a vested interest in controlling the definitions and the prevalence numbers. Such as mentioned in the article you posted today "One of the reasons SPD has been overlooked until now is that it often occurs in children who also have ADHD or autism, and the disorders have not been listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual used by psychiatrists and psychologists."
