Association of severe malaria with cognitive and behavioural outcomes in low- and middle-income countries: a meta-analysis and systematic review.

Multiple studies found consistently reduced scores in language tests among the severe malaria with complicated seizures group that largely did not reach statistical significance [ 28 – 31 , 33 ]; one study also identified significantly worse scores in behaviour within children with complicated seizures compared to controls (P = 0.05), and no differences in cognitive tests of memory or attention [ 31 ].
