Studying the Impact of Tuberous Sclerosis on Cognitive and Behavioral Development in Children
Abstract: Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a genetic disorder characterized by the formation of benign tumors in various organs, including the brain. This study aims to investigate the cognitive and behavioral challenges faced by children with TSC, exploring the correlation between the extent of neurological involvement and developmental outcomes. A mixed - methods approach, integrating quantitative assessments and qualitative interviews with parents and caregivers, was employed. The findings reveal significant deficits in cognitive functioning and behavioral issues, such as attention deficits and emotional dysregulation. These results highlight the need for early intervention and tailored support strategies for children with TSC to improve their developmental trajectories.
