Association of anthropometric parameters with intelligence quotient in early school-aged children: a cross-sectional study in Iran
This study indicated no strong relationship between various body measurements and intelligence levels in school-aged children after adjusting the analyses for confounders. This suggests that intelligence in these children may be largely shaped by genetic and sociodemographic factors, with minimal influence from physical growth patterns.
