There were no study dropouts. Fewer than 10% AN underweight time testing. Overall, there few differences across two groups, even though COMP performed significantly better object assembly subtest. small subgroup showed autism-spectrum disorders. This tended toward test profiles similar to those observed in autism Asperger syndrome.
