Re: What does this mean???

[Guest guest]

I saw the article as well and am cautiously optimistic that sometime

soon, through all the recent research and attention to autism, that

there will be a way to reverse the harm done to people on the

spectrum. I am not sure if this is it, but it is encouraging that

there are signs of positive things happening.

No, you people on the list really don't get it. After all, you haven't been

research geeks in

these kinds of situations like I have.

This means it will take LONGER to help the kids with autism than if the

government kept

being oppositional. The researchers will keep pretending they are on the verge

of great

discoveries but never make them. They'll lull people into complacence whereby

everyone

will stop looking around for what to do for their kid because they think the

doctors are

busy doing important research and will have the cure soon.

You may think I am being silly, but then consider that the " war on cancer " was

declared in

1972, and after about 35 years they are finally saying the death rate has

declined by a

minute amount for one or two specific cancers. It didn't budge for 30 years.

Many with Fragile X also have autism, only 2-6% with autism also have Fragile X.

No, I suppose I don't get it. I guess I haven't been in this long

enough to truly become as abrasive and cynical as some. I'm sure, in

time, I'll get there. For now, I like to keep an open mind and try

to be optimistic even when things seem daunting each way you turn.---

Yes, today's autistics do not have fragile X.

By inhibiting an enzyme that affects the connections between brain cells, the

effects of MR and autism were reversed.

However, the article does not state that inhibiting the enzyme will only help

fragile X patients. FOr so many non-verbal autistics who do not have fragile X

-- guessing that many of them also have brain cell connectivity problems. How

do we know they won't be helped by this?

I share Andy's skepticism but respectfully disagree that all researchers are

" pretending " -- some really want to find a cure and help resolve this issue --

like Andy Cutler himself.

By the way, as an Army scientist with an engineering degree, I work on

research all the time.

This is a VERY astute observation by Andy.

Hi Jasleen, Atmospheric pressure is 0 mmHg. The intraplural pressure becomes - 4mmHg during inspiration so that air flows from Atmosphere into the lungs.Hence it becomes more subatmospheric. I hope Ive cleared ur doubt. RegardsAfra.From: doctorjasleen@... <doctorjasleen@...>Subject: What does this mean???"
