* D’Agostino-Pearson test Four of five infants in the Guthrie group also had feed intolerance at the time of blood collection. Figure 38. Box-and-whisker plot of Guthrie amylin levels in term IMDM infants The central box represents the values from 25th to 75th percentile, middle line represents the median, and the vertical line joining the horizontal line extends from the minimum to the maximum value (range). The sample size was too small to test normal distribution. There was no difference in the demographic characteristics and plasma amylin levels of term IMDM at birth (umbilical cord) and postnatal day 5 (Guthrie) as shown in Table 13 & Figure 39. Table 13.
