Abstract

Context: Head trauma (HT) is one of the most important types of traumata that has a high prevalence and may occur in different age groups, ranging from infants to the elderly. Objectives: Considering the importance of the prevalence of all types of traumata, especially HT, this study was conducted to measure the prevalence of HT in Iran by systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods: The present systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted according to the PARISMA checklist to assess the prevalence of HT in Iran. PICO approach was carried out with the inclusion criteria of the articles as follows, and the search was conducted by two researchers completely independently from October 1 to November 30, 2022. Analysis was done by CMA v.2.0 software and using a random model, funnel plot, and meta-regression analysis. Results: In the 22 reviewed articles, the time of publication of the articles was between 2008 and 2022, and the total sample size was equal to 99,306. Also, in relation to the method of conducting studies, two studies were conducted using a retrospective method, two articles were conducted using a prospective method, and other articles were conducted using a cross-sectional method. The results showed the overall HT prevalence was 26.2 (95% CI, 14.4 - 29.2) in Iran. Moreover, there was no relationship between the year of publication of articles (P = 0.96, Z-value = 0.05) and sample size (P = 0.41, Z-value = -0.82) with the prevalence of HT. Conclusions: Considering the high prevalence of HT in Iran, it is necessary to carry out necessary preventive interventions in this field.

伊朗头部创伤患病率:系统回顾和荟萃分析

背景:头部创伤(HT)是最重要的创伤类型之一，具有很高的患病率，可能发生在不同年龄组，从婴儿到老年人。目的:考虑到所有类型创伤的患病率，特别是HT的重要性，本研究通过系统回顾和荟萃分析来测量HT在伊朗的患病率。方法:根据PARISMA检查表进行系统回顾和荟萃分析，以评估伊朗HT的患病率。采用PICO方法，文章纳入标准如下，检索由两位研究者完全独立完成，检索时间为2022年10月1日至11月30日。分析采用CMA v.2.0软件，采用随机模型、漏斗图和元回归分析。结果:22篇综述文章发表时间为2008 - 2022年，总样本量为99306篇。此外，关于开展研究的方法，两项研究采用回顾性方法，两篇文章采用前瞻性方法，其他文章采用横断面方法。结果显示，伊朗的总HT患病率为26.2 (95% CI, 14.4 - 29.2)。此外，文章发表年份(P = 0.96, z值= 0.05)和样本量(P = 0.41, z值= -0.82)与HT患病率无相关性。结论:考虑到伊朗HT的高流行率，有必要在该领域开展必要的预防干预措施。
