An index of the long-term effects of kwashiorkor on the electrocortical development of the child was obtained by recording the visual evoked potential (VEP) of 4 groups of children aged 6--12 years. The malnourished group, consisting of 30 Black children hospitalized for treatment of kwashiorkor during the first 27 months of life, was age-matched with 3 control groups. Some evidence of right hemisphere VEP deficit was found in the kwashiorkor group.
通过记录4组6至12岁儿童的视觉诱发电位（VEP），得出了夸休可尔症对儿童脑电皮质发育长期影响的指标。营养不良组由30名在出生后头27个月因夸休可尔症住院治疗的黑人儿童组成，该组与3个对照组进行了年龄匹配。在夸休可尔症组中发现了一些右半球VEP缺陷的证据。
