Abstract in Portuguese
Objetivo: avaliar as habilidades cognitivo-linguísticas de crianças diagnosticadas com leucemia linfoide aguda durante o tratamento quimioterápico. Método: estudo clínico transversal observacional. Formaram o grupo pesquisa (GLL) 18 crianças com idades entre 7 anos e 10 anos e 11 meses, com diagnóstico de leucemia linfoide aguda e em tratamento quimioterápico, que não apresentavam síndromes genéticas, alterações neurológicas e/ou auditivas, não haviam realizado radioterapia e/ou transplante de medula óssea. Foi coletado grupo controle (GC), formado por 18 crianças hígidas, pareadas ao grupo pesquisa por idade, gênero e escolaridade materna. Foram aplicadas provas de avaliação da inteligência não-verbal, fonologia, vocabulário expressivo, fluência verbal, memória verbal de curto prazo e memória verbal operacional. Os dados coletados foram submetidos à análise estatística. Resultados: não houve diferenças estatísticas entre os grupos nas provas de inteligência e vocabulário expressivo. O grupo GLL apresentou desempenho inferior nas demais provas, com diferença significante apenas em memória operacional e na categoria "partes do corpo" da prova de fluência verbal. Conclusão: Esse estudo possibilitou uma primeira análise dos efeitos do tratamento quimioterápico em crianças com leucemia nas habilidades cognitivo-linguísticas. Não houve diferença no vocabulário expressivo, mas as habilidades de fluência verbal e memória parecem ser prejudicadas nessas crianças, quando comparadas ao grupo controle, apesar de não haver significância estatística em todas as variáveis

Abstract in English
Objective: to evaluate the cognitive-linguistic abilities of children diagnosed with acute lymphoid leukemia during chemotherapy treatment. Methods: observational cross-sectional clinical study. The research group (GLL) was composed by 18 children aged between 7 years and 10 years and 11 months, with diagnosis of acute lymphoid leukemia receiving chemotherapeutic treatment, who did not present genetic syndromes, neurological and/or auditory alterations, had not undergone radiotherapy and/or bone marrow transplantation. A control group (GC) was collected, comprising eighteen healthy children, matched to the research group by age, gender and maternal schooling. Non-verbal intelligence, phonology, expressive vocabulary, verbal fluency, short-term verbal memory, and operational verbal memory were evaluated. The collected data were submitted to statistical analysis. Results: There were no statistical differences between groups in the intelligence and expressive vocabulary tests. The GLL group presented a worse performance in the other tests, but with significant difference only in operational memory and in the "body parts" category of the verbal fluency test. Conclusion: This study enabled a first analysis of the effects of chemotherapy treatment in children with leukemia on cognitive-linguistic abilities. There was no difference in expressive vocabulary, but verbal fluency and memory skills appear to be impaired in these children, when compared to the control group, although there was no statistical significance in all variables
