Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Trial of the Drug Donepezil for Sleep Enhancement and Behavioral Change in Children With Autism (NCT NCT01887132)

NCT ID: NCT01887132

Last Updated: 2017-09-25

Results Overview

The Nonverbal Developmental Quotient (NVDQ) was calculated from the Mullen Scales of Early Learning scores by dividing the nonverbal mental age (average of the age equivalent value for the Visual Reception and Fine Motor scores) by the chronological age in months. The NVDQ is normalized to a mean score of 100, which indicates an average normal IQ. Less than 100 is a lower than average IQ. 2 standard deviations below average is considered "impaired" IQ (approximately lower than 70).
