Characterizing Alcohol-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder (ARND): Prenatal Alcohol Exposure and the Spectrum of Outcomes.

This analysis suggests effects of alcohol on behavior and cognition even in the absence of the characteristic facial features and growth deficiency that can be identified. Results also indicate that it may be possible to distinguish such children from those in other high risk groups.
