Table 2.
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) |
Length | 75 cm (approximately 50th centile) | 73 cm (approximately 50th centile |
Head circumference | 49.5 cm (> 97th centile) | 48.5 cm (> 97th centile) |
Interpupillary distance | 5.5 cm (> 2 SD) | 5.5 cm (> 2 SD) |
Inner canthal distance | Increased (subjective) | 1.8 cm (normal) |
Note that these supplementary clinical data support all of the conclusions in Table 1 by providing raw data. The supplementary data also distinguish objective from subjective findings and Table 1 distinguishes the absence of data on a finding (by using the 'NA' indicator) from a normal finding.
