Figure 1

Intestinal permeability was evaluated by means of the LA/MA ratio [28] in ASDs children on a regular diet (AU RD) and on a GF/CF diet (AU GF/CF) and in healthy children all being on regular diet (HC RD). Normal range LA/MA cutoff is indicated by the dotted line. Values are given as mean SEM of the three groups. Significant differences were found between all groups (Kruskal Wallis-test and Dunn's multiple comparison test, ).
