An incredible 93 percent of severely autistic child patients come from immigrant families, according to a new Finnish study.
The study comes from Helsinki University Hospital (HUS), reports Ilta-Sanomat – which describes the findings as “astounding”.
According to the researchers, only seven percent of the severely autistic patients at the autism unit at the New Children’s Hospital in Helsinki had both parents born in Finland.
Children born in Finland to mothers who immigrated to Finland from the Middle East and Africa run the greatest risk. According to the study, their risk of severe autism spectrum disorder is about 50 times higher than that of children of Finnish mothers.
HUS does not have a good explanation for what the enormous overrepresentation is due to. However, it has been possible to rule out that it would be due to cultural factors or language deficiencies. Nor is it because it is more likely that immigrant children are admitted, as the relationship is rather the reverse.
Controversial theories
An explanation that has previously been put forward is vitamin D deficiency in the mother during pregnancy, writes Ilta-Sanomat.
Vitamin D deficiency has previously been shown to be common in immigrant women in Finland, who are not made for the cold and dark Nordic climate.
Another, more controversial, theory is that the phenomenon is simply due to inbreeding.
