Great work. Some points:
1) many substances are drugs, others foods and others natural elements. Nootropic is such a wide term
2) non-blindness is a major source of error. Mental function has a huge error bars with many causal factors and nonsensitive measurement methods
3) such "meta-analyses" are typically performed by experts in the field. But you are also a kind of supplement expert after "many years on /r/nootropics"
4) the champions (amphetamines and AChE inhibitors) are of no surprise. They have so vast and widespread effects that are more drugs than mere -tropics
5) as a neurologist I can see some clinical relevance of your work. By prescribing something some benefit is offered but more confusion is caused from which one is better.
