对18例治疗4年后的鞭虫痢疾综合征(TDS)患儿和对照组进行了随访研究。TDS儿童最初严重发育迟缓,发育水平极低。即使他们仍然处于非常恶劣的环境中,他们的z得分也达到了1.9。智力测验、学习成绩和认知功能均显著低于对照组。控制他们的早期发展水平,TDS儿童表现出一个小的改善,在心理发展相对于控制。
A follow-up study is reported of 18 children 4 y after treatment for the Trichuris dysentery syndrome (TDS) and matched control children. The TDS children were initially severely stunted and had extremely low developmental levels. They showed catch-up in height of 1.9 z-scores even though they remained in very poor environments. Their intelligence quotients, school achievement and cognitive function remained significantly lower than those of the controls. Controlling for their earlier developmental levels, the TDS children showed a small improvement in mental development relative to the controls.
