In Table 4 of this study, the geometric mean maternal serum mercury concentrations between the general population (0.32) and the ASD group (0.48) had P value of 0.05. The maternal serum blood mercury levels were statistically significantly higher in the ASD group than in the general population. Thus, the higher the maternal serum mercury levels, the more likely the child would be diagnosed with an ASD. Based upon this significant difference, the conclusion of this study should have included this finding.
