Abstract

Background: Anaemia is a public health concern in developing nations, particularly among women of reproductive age. However, the present prevalence and recent trend in anaemia among this population are unclear. This systematic review aimed to evaluate the prevalence of anaemia among non-pregnant women in Vietnam. Methods: We systematically searched databases such as PubMed, Scopus, and reference lists of earlier prevalence studies from their inception until July 2022. For statistical analysis to check for heterogeneity, random or fixed effects models were employed to summarize the prevalence of anaemia. Visual examination of a funnel plot was used to determine the presence of publication bias, which was then verified using the Egger regression test. Subgroup analyses were also undertaken to evaluate how the proportion of anaemia differs across various study groups. Results: A total of 188 studies were found as a result of the bibliographical search. Finally, of the 12 included studies, anaemia affected 5089 non-pregnant women out of a total of 19744, making the prevalence of this condition 23.2% (95% CI: 16.1-32.2). From 1995 to 2013, the prevalence of anaemia in this population declined significantly, from 42.6% to 16.9%. Notably, the prevalence of anaemia among non-pregnant women differed by geography and increased by mountains, Northern Vietnam, rural areas, and ethnic minority groups. Furthermore, no publication bias was found in this meta-analysis. Conclusion: To enhance the health of women and meet global objectives for eliminating anaemia, more efforts are required in specific regions and ethnic minority groups in Vietnam.

二十年来,越南非怀孕育龄妇女贫血患病率呈下降趋势:人口研究的系统回顾和荟萃分析。
背景:贫血是发展中国家的一个公共卫生问题,尤其是在育龄妇女中。然而,该人群目前的贫血患病率和最新趋势尚不清楚。本系统综述旨在评估越南非怀孕妇女的贫血患病率。方法:我们系统地检索了 PubMed、Scopus 等数据库以及从开始到 2022 年 7 月的早期流行率研究的参考文献列表。为了进行统计分析以检查异质性,我们采用了随机或固定效应模型来总结贫血症的患病率。通过对漏斗图的目测来确定是否存在发表偏倚,然后使用 Egger 回归检验对发表偏倚进行验证。此外还进行了分组分析,以评估不同研究组中贫血比例的差异。结果:通过文献检索共发现了 188 项研究。最后,在纳入的 12 项研究中,19744 名非孕妇中有 5089 名患有贫血症,患病率为 23.2%(95% CI:16.1-32.2)。从 1995 年到 2013 年,该人群的贫血症患病率大幅下降,从 42.6% 降至 16.9%。值得注意的是,非怀孕妇女的贫血患病率因地域而异,山区、越南北部、农村地区和少数民族群体的贫血患病率有所上升。此外,本次荟萃分析未发现出版偏倚。结论为了提高妇女的健康水平,实现消除贫血的全球目标,需要在越南的特定地区和少数民族群体中做出更多努力。
