Until the 1990s few children were labelled as 'autistic' and it is clear that the recent epidemic is not because of better diagnosis, it is because some aspect of the medical management of children at birth or in early childhood has changed.

The blood vessels of the brain are different to those in the rest of the body; they form a barrier because many substances present in blood are toxic. The barrier, known as the blood-brain barrier or 'BBB' needs energy to work properly and so is affected by lack of oxygen. Brain damage due to failure of the BBB can occur at any time during life but especially, as MRI has shown, at birth. After an initial insult the barrier may remain damaged as it is, for example, in multiple sclerosis patients.

Medical practice lags well behind the latest research findings about oxygen from biological scientists and oxygen is simply regarded as necessary for the production of energy. However, it has been shown that oxygen levels control genes including those responsible for new blood vessel formation, the control of inflammation and the release of stem cells into the circulation. These processes apply to the repair of all tissues but especially the brain.

Breathing is necessary to gain oxygen for normal function but also for recovery from injury or illness. Unfortunately, injury and disease involve blood vessels and this often restricts the delivery of oxygen just when it is most needed for repair Misunderstandings about the toxicity of oxygen have generally clouded judgement about the use of high levels in treatment. Enormous experience exists in aviation, space and underwater medicine about the safety of using oxygen in treatment.
