Table 1.
Clinical and genetic characteristics of the patients with Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and typically developing (TD) controls. We tested 39 patients with PWS (26 with a deletion and 13 with a disomy) and 20 age- and sex-matched controls. Means and standard deviations are provided for age, full-scale IQ, and the DBC_A score. The two main genetic subtypes were not statistically different (controlled by Wilcoxon test)
