Alhowail Syed Imam Rabbani Naira Nayeem Syed Mohammed Emaduddin Asdaq Faiqa Nausheen Learning Disabilities Etiology Clinical Diagnosis Disability Identification Intervention Genetic Disorders Environmental Influences Students with Disabilities Symptoms (Individual Disorders) Severity (of Disability) Children At Risk Persons Special Education Drug Therapy Therapy Neurodevelopmental Disorders Brain Cognitive Processes Comorbidity Learning disabilities (LD) present substantial challenges for both affected individuals and society, often going under-recognized, leading to delays in diagnosis and inadequate interventions. These conditions are complex and caused by a mix of genetics, environment, and brain function. This can affect the sensory and mental information during processing, making learning more difficult. A systematic review of 19 selected studies was conducted using databases such as PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science. Studies were evaluated for risk of bias, and findings were synthesized to offer an integrated understanding of the etiology, pathophysiology, diagnostic complexities, and treatment strategies associated with LD. Key genetic and environmental risk factors were identified, and diagnostic challenges were explored, with an emphasis on the role of neurocognitive assessments and educational tools for accurate identification. The effectiveness of different treatments, such as educational programs, cognitive therapy, and novel technologies, was also assessed in terms of how well they help improve learning outcomes. The information processing theory was examined in depth, illustrating how disruptions in the processing of sensory and cognitive stimuli contribute to the learning difficulties observed in LD. The review also emphasizes the need for a team effort, bringing together parents, teachers, healthcare workers, and communities. This might provide vital support for people with LD. Advances in educational technology and cognitive training offer promising avenues for improving information processing and, consequently, educational outcomes. A holistic approach to diagnosis and intervention is essential for optimizing the quality of life and educational success of individuals with LD. |
