Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the study was to synthesize previous evidence and clarify the prevalence of developmental coordination disorder (DCD) in children by meta-analysis.

Methods: A comprehensive computerized search of databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and PsycINFO databases, was conducted to identify relevant national and international articles published before 18 December 2023 on DCD prevalence in children. The meta-analysis of prevalence was conducted using Stata 18.0.

Results: A total of 18 papers involving 31,203 patients were included. The prevalence of children with DCD was found to be 5%. A subgroup analysis showed that prevalence was 7% [95% confidence interval (CI) 4%-10%] and 4% (95% CI 3%-7%) for boys and girls, respectively; 4% (95% CI 2%-8%), 2% (95% CI 2%-2%), and 6% (95% CI 3%-10%) in Asia, Europe, and North America, respectively; and 18% (95% CI 8%-31%) and 6% (95% CI 4%-7%) for preterm (<37 weeks) and term infants (≥37 weeks), respectively. The prevalence of very low birth weight children (<1,250 g) with DCD was found to be 31%.

Conclusion: In this study, we found that the prevalence of children with DCD in the general population was 5% and that preterm infants (<37 weeks) and very low birth weight infants (<1,250 g) have a higher prevalence of DCD and require early screening and regular follow-up.

儿童发育协调障碍的患病率：系统回顾和荟萃分析。

目的：本研究旨在通过荟萃分析综合以往的证据并明确儿童发育协调障碍（DCD）的患病率：方法：对PubMed、Embase、Web of Science、The Cochrane Library、CINAHL和PsycINFO等数据库进行了全面的计算机检索，以确定2023年12月18日之前发表的关于儿童发育协调障碍患病率的国内外相关文章。使用Stata 18.0对患病率进行了荟萃分析：结果：共纳入 18 篇论文，涉及 31 203 名患者。结果发现，儿童 DCD 患病率为 5%。亚组分析显示，男孩和女孩的患病率分别为 7% [95% 置信区间 (CI) 4%-10%] 和 4% (95% CI 3%-7%) ；亚洲、欧洲和北美的患病率分别为 4% (95% CI 2%-8%) 、2% (95% CI 2%-2%) 和 6% (95% CI 3%-10%) ；早产儿的患病率分别为 18% (95% CI 8%-31%) 和 6% (95% CI 4%-7%) ：在这项研究中，我们发现普通人群中患有 DCD 的儿童发病率为 5%，而早产儿（系统综述注册：https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/，标识符 (CRD42024503320)。
