Influence of Childhood Physical Neglect on Depression: Potential Moderation by a Polymorphism in the QKI Gene
نویسندگان
چکیده
A large number of children today are at risk of a specific subtype of childhood maltreatment, physical neglect. The global prevalence of self-reported childhood physical neglect (CPN) was recently estimated to be 16.3% [1]. The adverse effects of CPN appear to be as severe as those observed in other subtypes of abuse. CPN is associated with an increase in the risk of substance abuse, risky sexual behavior, posttraumatic stress disorder and affective disorders [2-4]. However, few scientific studies have paid close attention to CPN.
