Scientists track brain health in kids exposed to dangerous foodborne bacteria

NCT ID NCT02580812

Summary

This study aimed to understand if a serious bacterial infection called listeriosis, contracted around the time of birth, causes long-term effects on a child's brain development. Researchers followed 53 children, comparing those who had the infection to healthy children, checking their thinking skills, movement, and behavior at age five. The goal was to learn how this infection might impact learning, memory, and coordination later in life.
