Table 3.
Participant | Cognitive phenotype | Behavioral phenotype | Medical phenotype |
---|---|---|---|
Atyp Del1 |
Similar pattern of relative strengths and weaknessesa Overall intellectual ability high for WBS but 1 SD below her TD twin |
Similar levels of social pragmatic difficulties Similar levels of inattention and hyperactivity Sensitive to loud noises |
WBS facies Hyperopia Chronic otitis media Ventricular septal defect Gastroesophageal reflux in infancy |
Atyp Del2 |
Similar pattern of relative strengths and weaknesses Overall intellectual ability ~1.5 SD > WBS mean |
Similar levels of social pragmatic difficulties Similar levels of inattention and hyperactivity Sensitive to loud noises |
WBS facies Mild supravalvar aortic stenosis Multicystic dysplastic kidney Tremor |
Atyp Del3 |
Different pattern of relative strengths and weaknesses Overall intellectual ability >2 SD above WBS mean |
Considerably better social pragmatic skills Inattentive level in average range for TD children Considerably more hyperactive |
Does not have WBS facies Microcephaly Difficulty gaining weight Short stature Gastroesophageal reflux Chronic constipation |
Atyp Dup1 |
Speech-Sound Disorder that is not characteristic of Dup7 Developmental delay, most likely due to prematurity |
Social pragmatic abilities in average range for TD children Inattentive and hyperactivity levels in average range for TD children |
Does not have Dup7 facies Strabismus Joint laxity Hypospadias, cryptorchidism Developmental Coordination Disorder |
Atyp Dup2 |
Speech-Sound Disorder that overlaps with what is typical for Dup7 Overall intellectual ability within typical range for Dup7 |
Similar levels of social pragmatic difficulties as for Dup7 Inattentive and hyperactivity levels in average range for TD children Social Phobia |
Dup7 facies Macrocephaly Hypotonia Sleep disorder High pain tolerance Developmental Coordination Disorder |
Atyp Dup3 |
Speech-Sound Disorder that is characteristic of Dup7 Overall intellectual ability > 2 SD above Dup7 mean |
Social pragmatic abilities in average range for TD children Inattentive and hyperactivity levels in average range for TD children |
Dup7 facies Hypotonia Chronic constipation |
SD standard deviation, TD typically developing.
aTypically developing twin showed same pattern, so may be familial rather than related to WBS.
