Title
Choline and neurodevelopmental outcomes in children: a systematic review and meta analysis
Review Question
1. Does maternal plasma choline level during pregnancy or lactation relate to neurodevelopment in offspring? Further, is there a trimester wise difference in the strength of association? 2. Does maternal choline supplementation during pregnancy and/or lactation affect long term neurodevelopmental outcomes in their children? 3. Does plasma choline level during infancy relate to neurodevelopmental outcomes? 4. Does choline supplementation during infancy relate to neurodevelopmental outcomes?
Study Type Included
Observational and randomized controlled trials (RCTs) will be included. Synthesis of observational studies will be done to estimate the association of choline levels with neurodevelopmental outcomes. RCTs will be pooled to provide evidence on the effect of choline supplementation on neurodevelopmental outcomes. Inclusion criteria • Studies exploring the association of plasma choline level or supplementation with choline in pregnant women, lactating women and in children aged under 10 years on neurodevelopmental outcomes in the children • Original research, either cross sectional, cohort or randomized controlled trial (RCT) • Conducted in apparently healthy human subjects Exclusion criteria • Research done in high risk mothers and/or children • RCTs where mothers or infants receive supplementation of choline along with “other nutrients” known to affect neurodevelopment while the control group does not receive “other nutrients”, • Outcomes assessed in adolescent age group (10-18 years) or in adults, • Studies done in animal models, • Systematic reviews,
Condition Being Studied
Choline is essential for the formation of phospholipids and the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) [1]. It is therefore important for structural and cell signalling roles. It also functions as a methyl donor and is crucial for DNA regulation and repair as well as protein function and intermediary metabolism [2]. Evidence from animal studies suggests that choline supplementation improves cognitive and neurological function [3-4]. Our understanding on the role of choline on neurodevelopment in children is limited. The proposed review aims to synthesize available human studies on this aspect, in order to provide useful direction to future research. 1. Zeisel SH, da Costa KA.

Participant
Studies will be included if they explore the association of plasma choline level or supplementation with choline in pregnant women/lactating women/ in children aged under 10 years on neurodevelopmental outcomes. Therefore, the population of interest for our proposed review will be Pregnant women, in any trimester Lactating women Infants and children aged <10 years
Animal
Human Disease Modelled
Intervention
Plasma choline levels and/or supplementation with choline
Comparator Control
No supplementation with choline (specific to pooling of findings from RCTs)
Main Outcome
Primary outcomes In this review, we are primarily interested in the effect of the intervention/exposure on neurodevelopmental outcomes i.e. cognitive, motor and language performance along with higher executive functions in children aged under 10 years. Secondary outcome(s) None
