Drs Szetela and Zoorob contribute Guest Editorial to The Tennessean
Drs. Carolyn Szetela, Investigator, and Roger Zoorob, Principal Investigator, have recently contributed a superb guest editorial to The Tennessean, regarding the detection of behavioral problems in children. This article comes in response to the recent news of a 7-year-old boy adopted from Russia, who was returned to his home country because of alleged behavioral problems. In the article, Drs. Zoorob and Szetela, maintain that children with significant behavioral problems should be evaluated for fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), citing statistics from a Swedish study that found that more than half of 71 children adopted from Eastern European countries were affected by FASD.
