I would ask is that a "chicken or egg study". Couldn't low birth weight, early childhood infections be manifestation of AS not elements of causation. I like the very random nature of the older sibling factor.
As for me. Above average birthwieght, middle of three children and has one mystery high grade undiagnosed fever befroe turning two. So except birthweight I guess I partially fit the parameters. yes, correlation does not mean causation.
