Child abuse is a terrible thing. But as evidenced by the work of a select few, including Dr. David Ayoub, thousands of child abuse cases may in fact be misdiagnosed cases of rickets, caused by either vitamin D deficiency or aluminum adjuvants in vaccines, or both.

Vitamin D deficiency is a hidden problem that can actually cause bones to appear as if they've been broken on an x-ray, which is a sure diagnosis of abuse to the inexperienced eye. Zie ook: de zaak Yunus - http://jeugdzorg-darkhorse.blogspot.nl/2013/03/de-zaak-yunus-de-feiten.html
 

This is the other side of the child abuse drama, and I believe it is critical for this information to become more widely known. Being better informed about how infantile rickets mimics cases of child abuse can help prevent traumatic injustice to parents who really have done nothing wrong, besides listening to and trusting conventional medical advice, which still does not place sufficient weight on the importance of vitamin D.

Dr. Ayoub is a practicing radiologist in Springfield, Illinois, working for one of the largest radiology groups in the country. He's also a volunteer faculty member at the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine, where he instructs medical students and radiology residents.

He's been involved in hundreds of misdiagnosed rickets cases over the past six years, testifying on innocent parents' behalf. He also consults and reviews cases for other experts.

Dr. Ayoub has compiled a robust body of evidence to support his position, some of which was recently published in the peer-reviewed American Journal of Roentgenology.¹ The paper was co-authored by Dr. Chuck Hyman, a child abuse pediatrician, and Marvin Miller, a pediatric bone specialist and geneticist at Dayton Children's Hospital.

Based on this work, they're also submitting a second paper that addresses the risk factors in pregnancy that set up the baby with rickets, such as low vitamin D, poor calcium status, heavy antacid use, excess body weight, and other factors which I'll list further below.

"The last interview I did for you was really the link to my current work in infantile rickets," he says. "I was looking closely at aluminum adjuvants in vaccines and their association with diseases in early infancy. One of the classic diseases that aluminum is linked to is rickets.

It's also plausible that aluminum is anticoagulant. In other words, it can induce bleeding conditions. What comes to mind is fractures and bleeding (what do you think of) in infants – shaken baby syndrome (SBS).

The other link was my good friend, Dr. Ed Yazbak, who's been on your program before... We have worked together, writing a paper on the influence of vaccine in pregnancy. Ed called me one day and asked me to look at some of his cases. He goes, 'I know these kids weren't abused. They have bleeds in their brain. But some of them have fractures, and I can't figure it out. You're a radiologist. Would you look at these bones? Let me know what you see.'"

Is It Child Abuse, or Rickets?

Since that fateful phone call, Dr. Ayoub has reviewed upwards of 3,000 pieces of medical literature, ultimately revealing to him that a great number of child abuse cases may in fact be instances of misdiagnosed metabolic dysfunction.

Healing rickets can show up on an x-ray as what looks like a fracture, which immediately casts suspicion on the parents. But upon further analysis, it's not actually an injury to the child's growth plate at all.

In his estimation, there may be literally tens of thousands of misdiagnosed cases of child abuse around the country. The trend of misdiagnosis goes back at least 25 years or more.

As Dr. Ayoub points out, modern textbooks simply do not cover rickets as textbooks of the past did, and flawed research has been used as the basis to perpetuate the misdiagnosis of healing rickets as an inflicted injury.

"There's over a 95 percent reduction in our textbooks from what was in the textbooks 50 years ago," he says. "Radiologists and clinicians today do not know the full range of what you see in a radiograph in rickets.

The cases we're seeing are 100 percent healing-phase rickets. I believe it's the healing phase that makes these bones more susceptible to fractures. [It's] not the active phase but the recovery that is the state of susceptibility."

Radiologists Kathy Keller and Patrick Barnes have published a four-case series in the Pediatric Radiology journal, describing what Dr. Ayoub is seeing as well. The bulk of the information can be found in older radiology literature, however. Interestingly, it's not the rickets most modern doctors are familiar with.

"There's no fraying," he explains. "You probably remember in med school what rickets looked like; it's a classic they teach to medical students—the end of the bones looks like the end of a broom or a brush.

It's a frayed or irregular border. We don't see that. We didn't see that in any of the cases, because rickets in infancy is much, much different from rickets in the classical age group, which is between one and two years of age." [Emphasis mine]

Sadly, once a suspected child abuse case makes it to court, the prosecution usually wants to win at virtually any cost, even if it means sidestepping truth and medical fact. One argument that is frequently made is that vitamin D deficiency is rare. Clearly that's not true. Another common argument is that vitamin D deficiency is common, but rickets is rare, even though the scientific data tells us this isn't true either.

"I had a horrible case in Ohio in which a young baby with multiple fractures – the typical presentation – had a very, very low vitamin D, and one of the forms of vitamin D, which is 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, was remarkably elevated.

If you know anything about these pathways, that form of vitamin D pulls calcium from bones. An elevated form of this vitamin D is bad for bone. It's a marker of calcium deficiency or vitamin D deficiency rickets.

The expert told the court that this [vitamin] D level is the active form. It is high, which means it's healthy for the baby, and the child can't have rickets based on this.

Now, any good endocrinologist, pediatric endocrinologist, who heard the statement would realize that this was absolutely, completely, and utterly false. It means the exact opposite. You could look at any lab manual and realize that that form of vitamin D is detrimental to bone. That woman [the baby's mother] is in prison."

How Metabolic Bone Disease in Infants Gets Confused with Child Abuse

Whenever rickets occurs in the first couple of months of life, it's not really an infantile issue per se; it actually originates in the mother. Therefore, you have to look carefully at the mother's characteristics. According to Dr. Ayoub, mothers of children who end up displaying fractures due to infant rickets have a variety of signs and symptoms in common, including the following:

Vertaling (vrij vertaald): 

Door Dr Mercola

Kindermishandeling is een vreselijk iets. Maar zoals blijkt uit het werk van een select groepje, waaronder dr. David Ayoub, kunnen duizenden gevallen van kindermishandeling in feite worden gevonden door een verkeerde diagnose. Het zijn vaak gevallen van rachitis, veroorzaakt door een vitamine D-deficiëntie of aluminium adjuvantia in vaccins, of beide.

Vitamine D -deficiëntie is een verborgen probleem dat kan veroorzaken alsof het lijkt dat botten zijn gebroken (op een röntgenfoto). En dat is dan een diagnose van kindermishandeling voor het onervaren oog.

Dit is de andere kant van het kindermishandelingsdrama en ik denk dat het essentieel is om deze informatie beter bekend te maken. Betere voorlichting over hoe infantiele rachitis gevallen van kindermishandeling nabootst kan helpen traumatisch onrecht  te voorkomen aan ouders die echt niets mis hebben gedaan. Naast het luisteren naar en vertrouwen op conventionele medische adviezen, die nog niet voldoende nadruk leggen op het belang van vitamine D.

Dr Ayoub is een praktiserend radioloog in Springfield, Illinois en werkt voor één van de grootste radiologische groepen in het Amerika. Hij is ook een lid van de faculteit aan de Southern Illinois University School of Medicine, waar hij studenten geneeskunde en radiologie instrueert.

Hij is betrokken geweest bij honderden verkeerde diagnoses die gesteld zijn in de afgelopen zes jaar. In die gevallen bleek het om rachitis te gaan en niet kindermishandeling! Hij is getuige namens vele onschuldige ouders. Hij overlegt met andere deskundigen en legt hen de casussen voor.

Dr Ayoub heeft een dik pak aan bewijsmateriaal om zijn bevindingen, waarvan een aantal onlangs werden gepubliceerd in het peer-reviewed American Journal of Roentgenology, te staven. Het manuscript was van co-auteur van Dr Chuck Hyman, een kinderarts gespecialliseerd in kindermishandeling. Deze arts heeft de bevindingen ondersteund en samengesteld. Samen met Marvin Miller, een pediatrische botspecialist en geneticus aan Dayton Children's Hospital.

Kindermishandeling of rachitis?

Op basis van dit werk, hebben zij ook een tweede document gemaakt, dat de risicofactoren tijdens de zwangerschap belicht voor een baby met kans op rachitis, zoals lage vitamine D, calcium, zwaar gebruik van antacida, overgewicht, en andere factoren.

"Het laatste interview dat ik deed voor jou was echt de link naar mijn huidige werk in infantiele rachitis ," zegt hij. 'Ik was nauw kijken naar aluminium adjuvantia in vaccins en hun associatie met ziekten in de vroege jeugd. Een van de klassieke ziekten die met aluminium is verbonden is rachitis' .

Het is ook aannemelijk dat aluminium een antistollingsmiddel is. Met andere woorden, het kan bloedingen omstandigheden induceren. Waar je dan aan denkt, is breuken en bloedingen. Bij zuigelingen denk je dan, het is het shaken baby syndroom (SBS) .

Een ander verband wat ik ontdekte kwam van door mijn goede vriend, Dr Ed Yazbak. We hebben samengewerkt in verband met het schrijven van een document over de invloed van vaccineren in de zwangerschap. Ed belde me op een dag en vroeg me om te kijken naar een aantal van zijn gevallen. Hij zei: , 'Ik weet dat deze kinderen niet mishandeld waren. Ze hebben bloedingen in het brein. Maar sommigen van hen hebben botbreuken, en ik kom er niet uit. Jij bent een radioloog. Zou je willen kijken  naar deze botten? Laat me weten wat je ziet'."
 
Noodlottig telefoontje 

Sinds dat noodlottige telefoontje, heeft Dr Ayoub ruim 3000 stukken beoordeeld en in de medische literatuur  geopenbaard. 

En volgens hem zijn een  groot aantal gevallen van kindermishandeling in feite gevallen van een verkeerd gestelde diagnose metabole dysfunctie.
