Description
Dilek Altun Varmış and eight co-authors compare routine blood and chemistry markers in children with specific learning disorder against healthy peers, in 2026 work. The disorder covers lasting trouble with reading, writing, or math despite normal teaching. Records covered 103 children with the disorder and 102 children seen for well-child visits, and the team also checked links between inflammation-style blood scores and thinking test results inside the disorder group.
After strict correction for many comparisons, the disorder group showed a distinct pattern centered on lower average platelet size and higher counts of one white cell type tied to allergy responses. Combined inflammation scores built from blood counts separated the groups weakly and showed no corrected link to overall intelligence or chosen thinking domains. The authors warn that routine blood scores should not screen for or diagnose the disorder, and they call for direct immune measures in future work.
