Background About 47% of preschool children worldwide are anaemic. Daily oral iron supplementation is a commonly recommended intervention for treatment and prevention of anaemia, but the effi cacy and safety of iron supplementation programmes is debated. Thus, we systematically reviewed the evidence for benefi t and safety of daily iron supplementation in children aged 4–23 months. Methods We searched Scopus and Medline, from inception to Feb 5, 2013, WHO databases, theses repositories, grey literature, and references. Randomised controlled trials that assigned children 4–23 months of age to daily oral iron supplementation versus control were eligible. We calculated mean diff erence (MD) or standard MD (SMD) for continuous variables, ...
