A new study - lack of evidence for GI tract bacteria and Autism

I just heard on the morning news that there was a new study published regarding autism and diet. There is a study released at the Aspen Health Forum 2009 that, once again, revealed no relationship between the GI tract and neurological symptoms associated with autism.

The evidence-based medicine doctors (e.g., Dr. Steven Novella, Dr. Mark Crislip) have been advocating the lack of evidence for a link for years now. I do not have access to the exact paper released yet, but I will provide a link (or at least the cited study) as soon as it is released. If anyone has the citation, please feel free to add it below.
