To study the effects of perinatal HIV-1 infection and early institutional rearing on the physical and cognitive development of children, 64 Ukrainian uninfected and HIV-infected institutionalized and family-reared children were examined (mean age = 50.9 months). Both HIV infection and institutional care were related to delays in physical and cognitive development, with a larger effect of the rearing environment. Family care, even of compromised quality, was found to be more favorable for children's physical and cognitive development than institutional care. The impact of the quality of child care on physical and cognitive development is discussed in light of future interventions.
为了研究围产期 HIV-1 感染和早期机构养育对儿童身体和认知发育的影响，对 64 名未感染 HIV 的乌克兰儿童和感染 HIV 的机构养育及家庭养育的儿童进行了检查（平均年龄=50.9 个月）。HIV 感染和机构养育都与身体和认知发育迟缓有关，养育环境的影响更大。即使是质量较差的家庭照顾，也被发现比机构照顾更有利于儿童的身体和认知发育。根据未来的干预措施，讨论了儿童照顾质量对身体和认知发育的影响。
