Prevalence is estimated to be between 5% and 17% of school-aged children; it therefore represents a major public health issue.  (({{pubmed>long:23622168}}))+Developmental dyslexia (DD) is a specific and persistent disability affecting the acquisition of written language.

 <blockquote>There are two distinct forms of reading disorder in children: dyslexia (a difficulty in learning to translate print into speech) and reading comprehension impairment. Both forms of reading problem appear to be predominantly caused by deficits in underlying oral language skills.</blockquote> <blockquote>There are two distinct forms of reading disorder in children: dyslexia (a difficulty in learning to translate print into speech) and reading comprehension impairment.

 <blockquote> At the brain level, dyslexia is associated with aberrant structure and function, particularly in left hemisphere reading/language networks. The neurocognitive influences on dyslexia are also multifactorial and involve phonological processing deficits as well as weaknesses in other oral language skills and processing speed.  <blockquote> At the brain level, dyslexia is associated with aberrant structure and function, particularly in left hemisphere reading/language networks.

 <blockquote>Various policies to reduce emissions have been implemented to reduce air pollution and mitigate climate change, with sizeable estimated health and economic benefits. However, only a few adverse outcomes in children have been considered, resulting in an undercounting of the benefits to this vulnerable population. <blockquote>Various policies to reduce emissions have been implemented to reduce air pollution and mitigate climate change, with sizeable estimated health and economic benefits.
