Autism risk associated with parental age and with increasing difference in age between the parents

|
By Grether JK, Anderson MC, Croen LA, Windham GC
| Nature Verified
This study provides the strongest evidence to date supporting the hypothesis that advanced parental ages at the time of birth are independently associated with risk for ASD in the offspring; with no support for any modification by the sex of the child. There was also evidence for a combined parental age effect. The risk was highest when both parents were older, but the risk was also increased among disparately aged parents.
