A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
I added it in to my previous response but I figure I'll just do it as a reply. The study was submitted in May so he very well may have seen it come up in his autism alerts. I'm sure he has some kind of autism study feed.
Oh boy, I sure do love getting all of my comments downvoted by you cunts just because you don't like what I had to say. That sure proves me wrong...
Can you elaborate on the first paragraph? How is that significant? It seems to agree with what I said.
My mistake I thought it was a reply in the other comment thread.
The thing that makes it possibly a good study is that it was published in a good journal from a good school. It's not Harry Wang's Big Book of Science. You expect poorly done research in pay to play journals, but less so in biomedcentral.
I'm still mildly skeptical and have seen people make the claim that it was more likely the age of the mother which has been legitimately associated with higher risks of autism. It makes sense. But having now seen that they're pushing this shit super hard I'm immediately on guard.
I hadn't seen the Trump TV announcement of this dumb shit. This is something worthy of further study not a doctor's recommendation.
The study is fine. But its ethos is literally just correlation. The abstract:
This has zero cause effect relationship. Its literally the same issue with the vaccine correlation: medical care access.
I didn't say the study wasn't "good" I said its not automatically 100% correct because it's a study. I haven't read it let me look at the first page so I can elaborate.
