A hypothetical detailed clinical data table format that could be included as supplemental data with a manuscript; these data for each patient support and extend the data presented in the above summary table

Patient 1 Patient 2
Sex Male Female

Age at examination 12 months 12 months

Weight 10.2 kg (approximately 50th centile) 9.8 kg (approximately 50th centile)

Head circumference 49.5 cm (> 97th centile) 48.5 cm (> 97th centile)
