Obviously, a disease like rickets, which affected hard tissues--the skeleton- had irreversible consequences. Destruction or alteration of tissues, such as in cancrum oris or severe xerophthal mia, was equally permanent and easily observed. Other models were beriberi or scurvy, where, by contrast, the vitamin treatment seemed to restore the individual to the completely normal status quo ante. Most nutritionists were therefore little prepared intellectually for the series of suggestive findings con cerning nutrition and mental development which has been the highlight of nutritional research in the past decade: the discovery that there are irreversible gaps in mental development not correlated with obvious permanent somatic lesions which follow acute malnutrition during the develop ment of the young infant. Furthermore, not only are ex isting somatic instruments--physical examination, the scale, and the measuring tape--inadequate to detect such intellectual and behavioral deficits, but some of the current psychological instruments, bound to traditions of Western culture, are often poorly adapted | 出版日期 | Book 1975 | 关键词 | Vitamin; behavior; brain; children; development; environment; instruments; nutrition; population; skeleton; ti | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-3075-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4684-3077-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-3075-2Series ISSN 0099-6246 | issn_series | 0099-6246 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1975 |
