DV is developed FS diagnosis at either T2, T3, or T4 (i.e., by age 30). HR are adjusted for sex and comorbid subthreshold and full syndrome conditions that are associated with IV and DV (see text). Only HR that were significant before adjusting for comorbidity are presented. Comparison is SUB cases who developed the disorder vs. non-subthreshold, non-Full syndrome cases who developed the disorder. HR that are bolded are significant at p<.05. Shaded HR are homotypic developments. Nonshaded HR are heterotypic developments.
