- Abstract
Background: Research on a health-related event at the stage of labour and the occurrence of adverse outcomes at the school age has provided inconclusive results. Thus far, no systematic reviews have been conducted. Thus, the objective of this study is to investigate the association between hypoxia during pregnancy or delivery and the subsequent occurrence of a developmental dyslexia in school-age children. Methods: We used a standard search strategy of electronic databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library) and handsearching. We included observational studies (cohort studies, case-control studies) that consider as an exposure the presence of hypoxia during pregnancy or delivery, and as an outcome, developmental dyslexia in school-age children. Two reviewers independently conducted the search and determined eligibility, which was not restricted by language or year of publication. Results: The search took place until 1 April 2023. Of the 1,336 abstracts screened, 6 were assessed for eligibility. Of the six eligible studies, no studies met the pre-specified eligibly criteria. Conclusions: We were unable to assess the association between hypoxia and developmental dyslexia, as no eligible studies were found. Thus, the association between hypoxia during pregnancy or delivery and dyslexia in school-age children remains unknown.
