Abstract

Introduction: This review aims to synthesise the studies that have estimated the prevalence of perinatal depression in Italy, summarising the results of the existing literature based on their quality.

Materials and methods: Systematic searches were conducted in four major databases, and a random effect meta-analysis was performed to achieve the pooled variance of perinatal depression.

Results: The pooled prepartum risk of depression prevalence was 20.2% (CI 95% 15.3-24.5) while the postpartum risk of depression prevalence was 27.5% (CI 95% 17.8-37.3) for an Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) cut-off score ≥9 and 11.1% (CI 95% 6.0-16.2) for an EPDS cut-off score ≥12. Significant publication bias was found and was determined by the presence of a small study with a low prevalence and a large study with a high prevalence.

Conclusion: The prevalence of perinatal risk of depression is similar to that reported in other countries. The high prevalence of prepartum risk suggests the need to activate specific prevention actions during this period.

意大利围产期抑郁症的流行病学:系统回顾和荟萃分析。

引言:本综述旨在综合估计意大利围产期抑郁症患病率的研究，根据其质量总结现有文献的结果。材料与方法:系统检索4个主要数据库，并进行随机效应meta分析，获得围产期抑郁的汇总方差。结果:爱丁堡产后抑郁量表(EPDS)分值≥9时，产前抑郁患病率合并风险为20.2% (CI 95% 15.3-24.5)，产后抑郁患病率合并风险为27.5% (CI 95% 17.8-37.3)， EPDS分值≥12时，合并风险为11.1% (CI 95% 6.0-16.2)。发现了显著的发表偏倚，并通过存在一项低流行率的小型研究和一项高流行率的大型研究来确定。结论:我国围生期抑郁症患病率与其他国家相似。预备风险的高流行率表明有必要在此期间采取具体的预防行动。
