  • Beschreibung: AbstractSevere thiamine (vitamin B1) deficiency is generally regarded as a problem affecting mostly infants in low‐income communities of Southeast Asia and adult alcoholics regardless of their location. However, recent scholarship shows that the disorders associated with thiamine deficiency may also affect heretofore unsuspected populations, and that the scope of disorders, including some long‐lasting neurocognitive consequences, is broader than previously thought.
