A In the original study (Le et al. [9]) without cluster analysis. B In the two identified subtypes of autism (ASD) based on all 23 baseline measures and following ablation analysis only using ADOS-2 (Autism diagnostic observation schedule-2) and eye tracking measures for time spent looking at the eyes and nose of emotional faces. C Box plots showing comparison of responses to OXT for the two autism subtypes showing greater combined improvements in ADOS-2, ABAS-GAC (adaptive behavior assessment system-II, global adaptive composite scale) and RBS (Repetitive behavior scale) scores and time spent looking at dynamic social stimuli and the eyes of angry faces and nose of neutral ones.
