Underachievement in adolescence

 

A recent unpublished study among Swedish school children aged between 9 and 15 suggested that elevated levels of homocysteine could have a direct impact on achievement at school and neuro-cognitive function. Both the total sum of school grades and the grades achieved on 10 core subjects were significantly and negatively associated with elevated levels of plasma homocysteine.
