- fnord123 9y agoWakefield AJ, Murch SH, Anthony A, Linnell J, Casson DM, Malik M, et al. Ileal-lymphoid-nodular hyperplasia, non-specific colitis, and pervasive developmental disorder in children. Lancet. 1998;351:637–41. Recap: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3136032/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3136032/ In 1998, Andrew Wakefield and 12 of his colleagues[1] published a case series in the Lancet, which suggested that the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine may predispose to behavioral regression and pervasive developmental disorder in children. Despite the small sample size (n=12), the uncontrolled design, and the speculative nature of the conclusions, the paper received wide publicity, and MMR vaccination rates began to drop because parents were concerned about the risk of autism after vaccination.[2] Link to actual paper: https://ac.els-cdn.com/S0140673697110960/1-s2.0-S0140673697110960-main.pdf?_tid=3fa9ad18-067f-11e8-ba36-00000aacb35d&acdnat=1517400603_e7f89fc38b5b859ac06fcc95d1844f86 https://ac.els-cdn.com/S0140673697110960/1-s2.0-S01406736971...
