Abstract | The conference, planned primarily for nutritionists and dieticians, dealt with the role of nutrition in the prevention and management of mental retardation. Proceedings include an overview of mental retardation, an examination of nutrition manpower needs in the fields of mental health and mental retardation on both the national and state levels, and a discussion of nutrition and learning in children that reviews studies on the effects of severe malnutrition on cognitive development. Dietary intervention in maple syrup urine disease and phenylketonuria is explained in detail. How to solve feeding problems of mentally retarded children is discussed by a nutritionist, occupational therapist, physical therapist, nurse, and speech pathologist. The final paper describes the role and activities of nutritionists in University Affiliated Centers. (KW) |
