- Description
- Autism is increasing - but why? Birth defect prevention trials were based on the teleological assumption that folic acid could prevent neural tube defects without consideration of long-term effects, some of which could be beneficial, some of which might be harmful. We therefore ask - Is it impossible to look again at these cohorts?
