Raising IQ among school-aged children: Five meta-analyses and a review of randomized controlled trials
2017, Developmental ReviewCitation Excerpt :We originally found 11 studies contributing 21 effect sizes providing iron to children and testing if it raised their IQ. Two studies (Kashyap and Gopaldes, 1987; Seshadri and Gopaldes, 1989) were removed as they only included children with iron deficiency anemia. Two additional studies (Pollitt, Soemantri, Yunis, & Scrimshaw, 1985; Soemantri et al., 1985) included data on both anemic and non-anemic children, for the purposes of generalizability we only included non-anemic children where such a breakdown was available; fuller data from (Pollitt et al., 1985) was found in a different publication (Pollitt, 1997).
Effects of daily iron supplementation in primary-school-aged children: Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
2013, CMAJ. Canadian Medical Association JournalCitation Excerpt :No studies reporting cognitive outcomes were at low overall risk of bias. Global cognitive performance was reported in 9 studies: 5 studies used IQ (tests: Raven Progressive Matrices, Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children [WISC], Test of Non-verbal Intelligence 2nd Edition),28,43,44,55–58 3 studies used author-adapted scales of global cognitive performance (visual memory, digit span, mazes test, clerical task tests with maximum scores of 40),28–31,34 and 1 study used overall school performance.17,18 Data from 2 other studies could not be included because global cognitive scores were not presented.
