- Group 0 name Corresponds to the control (unexposed) group for case-control studies
- non-sibling control
- Group 1 name Corresponds to the case (exposed) group for case-control studies
- severely autistic
- Group 1 definition Diagnostic criteria applied to define the specific condition / phenotype represented in the case (exposed) group
- Cases were diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder. Moreover, they were evaluated for autism and their diagnoses were validated based on impairment in social skills, impairment in language skills and verbal communication, sensory disturbances, repetitive stereotypical behaviors, and gastrointestinal disturbances.
