Aggregate scores in the coventional tests of oculomotor function in children with MAM compared with controls
| Control | MAM | Unadjusted | Adjusted* | |||
| Difference (95% CI) | P value | Difference (95% CI) | P value | |||
| Baseline score | 0.75±0.19* | 0.75±0.15† | 0.00 (−0.07 to 0.06) | 0.90 | −0.01 (−0.05 to 0.04) | 0.80 |
| Change in score | −0.04±0.16‡ | −0.07±0.18§ | −0.03 (−0.05 to 0.12) | 0.40 | −0.03 (−0.10 to 0.05) | 0.51 |
Data are mean±SD and mean difference (95% CI). Independent samples t-test was used for unadjusted comparisons. Linear regression was used for adjusted comparisons.
