| Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to analyze the existing studies and to investigate the relationship between children's full-scale intelligence quotient (FIQ), verbal IQ (VIQ), and performance IQ (PIQ) and their blood lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) levels. All documents in Chinese and English were collected from the PubMed, Web of Science, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases from inception date to December 30, 2016. RevMan software (version 5.2) was used for the meta-analysis and Stata software (version 12.0) for the meta-regression and sensitivity analyses. A total of 32 eligible literatures was included in the study. Seven prevalence studies showed that the blood Pb level was negatively correlated with children's IQ. The results of the meta-analysis from 22 case-control studies indicate a significant difference between FIQ and PIQ with blood Pb levels, detailed as the FIQ score with a weighted mean difference (WMD) = -6.60 (95% CI: -9.01, -4.20), P < 0.001; PIQ WMD = -8.85 (95% CI: -12.651, -5.05), P < 0.001; but VIQ WMD = -3.32 (95% CI: -6.98, 0.33), P > 0.05. Three studies on the blood Zn concentrations were with a FIQ WMD = 7.88 (95% CI: -0.07, 15.83), VIQ WMD = 7.73 (95% CI: -7.40, 22.86), and PIQ WMD = 6.69 (95% CI: -7.13, 20.51), all P > 0.05. The results indicate that Pb is harmful to children's intelligence development, especially in PIQ. Zn is beneficial to intelligence, although more studies are needed. |
