a

Carriers include proband carriers (individuals ascertained for a neurodevelopmental disorder), pediatric carrier relatives (mostly siblings of the probands), and adult carrier relatives (mostly transmitting parents).

b

Linear mixed model analysis was used to estimate the effect of duplication on FSIQ, NVIQ, VIQ, BMI z score, and HC z score.
