It should be noted however that we can't really be sure of how many people are Autistic and how many people can or cannot be diagnosed. Chances are autism is under-diagnosed because there are many people who cannot afford diagnosis or some people actively avoid diagnosis to avoid prejudice or stigma that can be faced as a result. Until diagnosis is more common we don't know how many Autistic people there are to say how common autism actually is.

Have there been any studies to determine whether the use of marijuana by pregnant mothers increases the odds of autism in their children? I have seen studies showing the results from use of cocaine and alcohol.
What are the odds a woman will give birth to an autistic child?
The odds of any woman giving birth to an autistic child would depend upon her and the fathers genetics, the age of the woman and if there were any other problems with previous pregnancies. Autistic genes are dominate so if there is autism in her medical history then a genetic counselor can help to determine the possible risk to an unborn child should she decide to go through with the pregnancy.

Genetic influences on autism are estimated to be around 74%-98%, so chances of an Autistic person having Autistic offspring is highly likely and a person of any neurology with one Autistic child may be more likely to have another Autistic child. There is no way of knowing for sure, we're not at a point where we can identify specific causes let alone how likely Autistic offspring are.

How has autism chaneged since the 1930?
Essentially none. Medical recognition of autism has come only in the past few decades--the first use of "autism" in its modern sense was in 1943. As late as the 70s, many blamed lack of parental attention for autism in children. In the 1930s, it seems most likely that autism would have been diagnosed as a form of schizophrenia. Antipsychotic drugs for schizophrenia did not come about until the 50s. Insulin shock therapy came about in the 30s as a treatment for schizophrenia, but the odds of it doing anything for autism are less than remote.

What are your odds of survival after being diagnosed with Mesothelioma?
Well not sure, but by the time symptoms show up and mesothelioma is diagnosed, the disease is often advanced. A lot of research has been done on mesothelioma for finding ways to prevent this deadly asbestos-related cancer. Some years ago, a good friend of mine was diagnosed with mesothelioma. He is still alive after getting mesothelioma for long time and fighting with the disease bravely.
