Rh+ children of rh- mothers more likely to be disabled

Remember the previous studies indicating such?

See some of those studies here.

Here is yet another study (from Dec. 2015) showing the same type of results:

There was a significant relationship between mother’s Rh blood and having disabled child (P=0.002). However no significant relationship between having disabled children and the following variables was found: the father’s Rh blood (p=0.2), father and mother’s Rh blood together (P=0.5), father blood type (P=0.56), mother blood type (P=0.42), and mother and father blood types together (P=0.7).

Coincidence?

Conclusion
Maternal and fetal blood incompatibility (mother with negative Rh blood and fetus with positive Rh blood) increased the likelihood of being born with disabilities.
