Autism Risk Rises With Mother's Age. Feb. 8, 2010 -- The older a mother is when she gives birth, the higher her child's risk of autism, new data show. A smaller effect also is seen for the age of the father, but only when the child is born to a father over age 40 and a mother under age 30. The new findings come from a comparison of reported autism cases in California to state singleton birth records from 1990 to 1999.
Children between 4 and 10 years of age with autism spectrum disorder who weigh at least 33 pounds, who have detectable, but not toxic, levels of mercury or lead in the blood, and who have not previously received chelation therapy may be eligible for this study.
