0262/2022 - Family instability in childhood affects language and memory in adulthood: resultsthe Pró-Saúde Study, Brazil Estabilidade familiar na infância afeta a linguagem e memória na vida adulta: Resultados do Estudo Pró-Saúde
Investigar as associações de exposições psicossociais adversas na infância com memória declarativa, linguagem e função executiva em adultos livres de demência com ensino médio completo ou mais. Em 361 participantes do Estudo Pró-Saúde estimamos as associações entre escolaridade materna, principal apoio financeiro familiar, insegurança alimentar e estrutura familiar na infância com o desempenho no teste de aprendizagem e evocação de palavras, e fluência verbal semântica e fonêmica usando modelos de regressão linear múltipla. Ter a mãe como principal suporte financeiro familiar (diferença média: -1,97, IC 95%: -3,27; -0,72) e ter morado apenas com ela (diferença média: -1,62, IC 95%: -2,89; -0,35) ou outra pessoa/ser institucionalizado (diferença média: -2,19, IC 95%: -4,29; -0,09) na infância permaneceu associada à pior linguagem e memória na vida adulta. Nossos achados adicionam mais evidências sobre o efeito de exposições na infância que, sem intervenções apropriadas, provavelmente terão legados de longo alcance na cognição.
To investigate the associations of adverse psychosocial exposures in childhood with declarative memory, language, and executive function in adults free of dementia with high school degree or more. In 361 participants of the Pró-Saúde Study we estimated associations of maternal educational attainment, principal financial family support, food insecurity, and childhood family structure with the performance in learning and word recall, semantic and phonemic verbal fluency test using multiple linear regression models. Having had the mother as principal financial family support (mean difference: -1.97, 95% CI: -3.27; -0.72) and having lived only with her (mean difference: -1.62, 95% CI: -2.89; -0.35) or another person/institutionalized (mean difference: -2.19, 95% CI: -4.29; -0.09) at the childhood remained associated with poor language and memory in adulthood. Our findings add more evidence about the effect of exposures in childhood which without appropriate interventions, is likely to have far reaching legacies on cognition.
