Zusammenfassung:Data was extracted from 19 studies across all population groups that met the inclusion and exclusion criteria (12 randomised controlled trials (RCTs), and 7 observational studies). A random effects model was used to investigate the impact of zinc intake on indices of cognitive function including intelligence (7 data sets from 862 children), executive function (7 data sets from a 942 children), and motor development (4 data sets from 622 children). Due to the heterogeneity of the cognitive function test methodology, only a small number of studies could be included in the meta-analysis.
