The Assessment of Neuropsychological Outcomes in Pediatric Severe Malaria

摘要: Cerebral malaria is one of the most common childhood encephalopathies, with severe accounting for a significant number hospital admissions in endemic malarial areas. This overview guided by assumption that neuropsychological effects should be considered as part syndrome. because proposed neuropathological mechanisms and outcomes implicate variety pathways risk resilience. Our systematic review these brain/behavior embedded within consideration complex web poverty, contributing more distal (malnutrition) protective (education) factors to proximal disease itself. A structural equation model used across four country settings consider both disease-related environmental/family influences on neuropsychology children exposed malaria. Taken together this illustrates how co-constructivist framework provides cohesive manner from which describe public-health threats African children.
