Mumps
Using the combined vaccine for protection of children against measles, mumps and rubella
Describes a study which carried out a systematic review to assess the evidence of effectiveness and unintended effects associated with MMR.
An assessment of mumps vaccine effectiveness by dose
This investigation was done to assess vaccine effectiveness of one and two doses of the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine during an outbreak of mumps in Ontario. The level of coverage required to reach herd immunity and interrupt community transmission of mumps was also estimated.
Lack of Association Between Measles-Mumps-Rubella Vaccination and Autism in Children: A Case-Control Study
The first objective of the study was to determine whether there is a relationship between the measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccination and autism in children. The second objective was to examine whether the risk of autism differs between use of MMR and the single measles vaccine... The study provides evidence against the association of autism with either MMR or a single measles vaccine.
Pervasive developmental disorders in Montreal, Quebec, Canada : prevalence and links with immunizations
The findings ruled out an association between pervasive developmental disorder and either high levels of ethylmercury exposure comparable with those experienced in the United States in the 1990s, or 1- or 2-dose measles-mumps-rubella vaccinations.

A population-based study of measles, mumps, and rubella vaccination and autism
Describes research which studied a retrospective cohort of all children born in Denmark from January 1991 through December 1998, in order to discover whether vaccination against measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) is a cause of autism.
Immunization and children at risk for autism
Guides physicians as they counsel parents about possible connections between immunization and autistic disorders.
Measles, mumps, and rubella vaccination and bowel problems or developmental regression in children with autism : population study
Investigates whether measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccination is associated with bowel problems and developmental regression in children with autism by looking for evidence of a new variant form of autism.
Neurologic disorders after measles-mumps-rubella vaccination
Assesses whether an association prevails between MMR vaccination and encephalitis, aseptic meningitis, and autism.
