Abbreviation: K–W, Kruskal–Wallis test (non-parametric ANOVA).

Data are expressed as mean±SEM, except for head circumference, which is expressed as median±semi-interquartilic range (IQR/2). Nominal P-value are reported; highlighted in bold, statistically significant results surviving Bonferroni's correction (significance set at P<0.0041).
