    Temporal Association of Certain Neuropsychiatric Disorders Following Vaccination of Children and Adolescents: A Pilot Case–Control Study

    http://journal.frontiersin.org/artic...017.00003/full


    1Department of Public Health Sciences, Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine, Hershey, PA, USA
    2Yale Child Study Center, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA

    Background: Although the association of the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine with autism spectrum disorder has been convincingly disproven, the onset of certain brain-related autoimmune and inflammatory disorders has been found to be temporally associated with the antecedent administration of various vaccines. This study examines whether antecedent vaccinations are associated with increased incidence of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), anorexia nervosa (AN), anxiety disorder, chronic tic disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, major depressive disorder, and bipolar disorder in a national sample of privately insured children.

    Methods: Using claims data, we compared the prior year’s occurrence of vaccinations in children and adolescents aged 6–15 years with the above neuropsychiatric disorders that were newly diagnosed between January 2002 and December 2007, as well as two control conditions, broken bones and open wounds. Subjects were matched with controls according to age, gender, geographical area, and seasonality. Conditional logistic regression models were used to determine the association of prior vaccinations with each condition.

    Results: Subjects with newly diagnosed AN were more likely than controls to have had any vaccination in the previous 3 months [hazard ratio (HR) 1.80, 95% confidence interval 1.21–2.68]. Influenza vaccinations during the prior 3, 6, and 12 months were also associated with incident diagnoses of AN, OCD, and an anxiety disorder. Several other associations were also significant with HRs greater than 1.40 (hepatitis A with OCD and AN; hepatitis B with AN; and meningitis with AN and chronic tic disorder).

    Conclusion: This pilot epidemiologic analysis implies that the onset of some neuropsychiatric disorders may be temporally related to prior vaccinations in a subset of individuals. These findings warrant further investigation, but do not prove a causal role of antecedent infections or vaccinations in the pathoetiology of these conditions. Given the modest magnitude of these findings in contrast to the clear public health benefits of the timely administration of vaccines in preventing mortality and morbidity in childhood infectious diseases, we encourage families to maintain vaccination schedules according to CDC guidelines.

    From the study:

    The other control condition, open wounds, showed no increased incidence following vaccinations.


    Whew. At least we can rule out vaccines causing open wounds, though they may cause broken bones:

    However, children with broken bones were also more likely to have had a vaccination in the preceding period,
    (Correlation is not necessarily causation).

    In fact, it would not be surprising if the diseases per se represent a stronger risk factor than vaccinations.
    This is the big part right here:

    However, our findings do not demonstrate a causal role of vaccination in the pathoetiology of any of these conditions. This is especially important given the clear public health benefits of the timely administration of vaccines in preventing mortality and morbidity (38). Vaccines are among the most successful and cost-effective preventive public health interventions (39). Vaccination has led to eradication of smallpox, and we are close to the eradication of poliomyelitis across the world. Since most of the vaccine-preventable diseases are contagious from person to person, the increase in numbers of vaccinated individuals will decrease the chance of a disease to spread. Proper vaccination not only protects our generation but also protects future generations against epidemics of diseases. It should always be kept in mind that vaccines are crucial for eradicating infectious diseases and preventing the higher rates of morbidity and mortality due to infections.
    And in conclusion:

    However, these findings, even if replicated in future studies, do not prove a causal role of vaccination in the pathoetiology of any of these conditions. Indeed, antecedent infections may also increase the risk of developing one or more of these disorders in vulnerable individuals. Finally, given the modest magnitude of these findings and the clear public health benefits of the timely administration of vaccines in preventing mortality and morbidity in childhood, we encourage families to maintain the currently recommended vaccination schedules while taking all necessary precautions as documented by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

    Yup.

    But this study backs up something I have been saying for years, that the auto immune response is what the problem is, especially when multiple vaccines are given to very young children or infants.

    Wow, thanks Mr. Science! Practically all studies use the phrase "associated with" (or something similar). This study's conclusion uses words like "implies" and "related to." I'm sure the full text makes clear the connection and not causality. It's standard fare (as are disclaimers about causality), but nice straw man you got going.

    And why are you pretending to have an actual discussion when all you do is post contrary information. Sort of odd from someone like you who claims to be a "supporting member."

    This study shows that vaccines have a higher Hazard Ratio, in 3 months, (see Table 2):
    Anorexia Nervosa (AN) - 1.80 [especially high for Flu vaccines];
    Compulsive Disorder (OCD) - 1.23 [especially high for Flu and Hep. A vaccines];
    Anxiety Disorder - 1.12 [especially high for Flu vaccines];
    Tic Disorder - 1.11 [especially high for Flu an Meningitis vaccines];
    ADHD - 1.06.


    These results are very troubling and significant. Varicella is smallpox by the way…
    The state media found a really smart way to sweep these results under the carpet, by simply concluding:
    However, our findings do not demonstrate a causal role of vaccination in the pathoetiology of any of these conditions. This is especially important given the clear public health benefits of the timely administration of vaccines in preventing mortality and morbidity (38). Vaccines are among the most successful and cost-effective preventive public health interventions (39).

    There isn’t any scientific evidence that vaccinations are beneficial. There has never been a proper placebo controlled trial on the efficacy of vaccines. Instead the state media claim that it would be “unethical” to have a proper study on the effects of vaccines.
    I will not show you an anti-vaxxer story (most of which are almost as one-sided as the pseudoscientific studies by the CDC and their ilk), but here’s a story of a vaccination-idiot with the ridiculous conclusion “How many times do you have to be tricked before you realize that you are being victimized by your lack of knowledge of science and statistics?”: http://www.skepticalob.com/2009/10/l...f-vaccine.html

    This pro-vaccination moron gives THE argument against vaccination. We have been tricked into accepting medical treatment for which the beneficial effects have never been scientifically proven.

    I will end this post with the humanitarian psychopath Bill Gates that is very concerned that some underprivileged children do not get vaccinated, because:
    The world today has 6.8 billion people … that’s headed up to about 9 billion. Now if we do a really great job on new vaccines, health care, reproductive health services, we could lower that by perhaps 10 or 15 percent”.
    The following video at TED2010 begins with Bill Gates explaining about the horrors of increasing CO2 and that we need to reduce the rise of CO2 in the atmosphere to 0 and ends with the previous infamous quote: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUJMR3BUm2s

    When it comes to the religious beliefs in vaccines, straw man arguments, appeal to authority, and non-sequiturs are all that are left in attacking the science, rather than discussing it. They cannot discuss, only attack the unbelievers.

    You can say it, but you're wrong. And even if you were right, better off with an auto-immune disorder than being dead.

    Study Population

    The study sample consisted of children aged 6–15 with a diagnosis of one of the following conditions (ICD-9 codes in parentheses): OCD (300.3), AN (307.1), anxiety disorder (300.0–300.2), tic disorder (307.20 or 307.22), ADHD (314), major depression (296.2–296.3), and bipolar disorder (296.0–296.2, 296.4–296.8). To test the specificity of the models, we also included children with broken bones (800–829) and open wounds (870–897). To identify new cases, we further limited the sample in each diagnostic group to children who were continuously enrolled for at least 1 year prior to their first diagnosis for the condition (the index date). Next, a matched one-to-one control group was constructed for each diagnostic group consisting of children who did not have the condition of interest and were matched with their corresponding case on age, gender, date of the start of continuous enrollment, and three-digit zip code. Because vaccines tend to occur during certain times of year (such as before summer camps or the beginning of school), controls were also required to have an outpatient visit at which they did not receive a vaccine within 15 days of the date that the corresponding case was first diagnosed with the condition, in an effort to control for seasonality. The date of this visit was the index date for children in the control group.

    For each diagnostic group and their corresponding controls, individuals who were vaccinated in the 3, 6, or 12 months before the index date were identified. Exposure to vaccines was measured using CPT codes (list available from the authors upon request) and ICD-9 codes (V03–V06 or V07.2). Exposure to specific vaccines, including influenza, tetanus and diphtheria (TD), hepatitis A, hepatitis B, meningitis, and varicella, was tracked.
