Daily Training efficiency during computerized cognitive rehabilitation training (CCRT): an analysis from a randomized trial in Ugandan children with and without severe malaria.

ABSTRACT: Children in Uganda are at risk for significant cognitive sequelae from severe malaria. Computerized cognitive rehabilitation training (CCRT) represents a potential method to improve working memory, behavior, and executive functioning, cognitive domains most at risk following severe malaria. The primary aim of this study was to complete a secondary analysis of data from a concluded CCRT randomized control trial in order to compare the training efficiency of a commonly used CCRT program under conditions of titrated (adaptive) or non-titrated (non-adaptive) training and with children with increasing malaria severity to determine how various factors may affect potential CCRT improvement. A total of 201 school-aged children (66.2% boys) who were either healthy (n = 102) or previously diagnosed
