{"title":"Incidence and risk factors for travellers' diarrhoea among short-term international adult travellers from high-income countries: a systematic review with meta-analysis of cohort studies.","authors":"Siobhan C Carroll, Maria Eugenia Castellanos, Robyn A Stevenson, Lars Henning","doi":"10.1093/jtm/taae008","DOIUrl":"10.1093/jtm/taae008","url":null,"abstract":"<p><strong>Introduction: </strong>Travellers' diarrhoea (TD) continues to be the most common travel-related medical event in international travellers. Updated incidence and risk factor data will improve pre-travel medical advice for travellers from high-income countries (HICs), providing an opportunity for disease prevention and appropriate disease management.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>A systematic search for cohort studies of TD incidence published between 1 January 1997 and 2 March 2023 was performed using Ovid Medline, SCOPUS and Google Scholar databases. Study quality was assessed with a modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). We extracted incidence data for adults travelling less than 100 days from HIC and available risk factor data. The overall random-effects pooled incidence and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were estimated. Heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 statistic, tau and the 95% prediction intervals. Subgroup analyses were conducted to identify the sources of heterogeneity. Risk factor studies were reviewed qualitatively and described.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Ten studies were included in the meta-analysis, containing 8478 participants. Two of the studies measured as high quality and eight as good quality as assessed by the modified NOS. The TD incidence was 36.1% (95% CI 24-41%; I2 94%), with a prediction interval ranging from 20.3 to 55.8%. The pooled incidence of mild, moderate and severe TD was 23.6, 8.1 and 2.9%, respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence increased with increasing average data collection period. Risk factors for TD in travellers from HIC identified include younger age, longer travel periods, low and middle-income destinations, travelling for tourism, backpacking travel styles and pre-travel health status.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>It is estimated that between 20 and 56% of international travellers can expect to develop TD in travel of under 100 days. While most cases are mild, ~3% of all travellers will experience a disease that prevents usual activities or requires medical attention.</p>","PeriodicalId":17407,"journal":{"name":"Journal of travel medicine","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11896841/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139466574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, limited evidence exists on severe illnesses and injuries leading to death among travellers, particularly in low- and middle-income countries and remote regions.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We conducted a retrospective census study using country-level observational data from death certificates of travellers of seven South American countries (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay) from 2017 to 2021. Causes of death were evaluated using ICD-10 codes, categorized into non-communicable diseases (NCDs), communicable diseases and injuries. We quantified causes of death by demographic characteristics (e.g. age, sex) and geographical variables. Chi-square tests were used to assess differences between categories. We calculated crude mortality rates and incidence rate ratios (IRRs) per country's subregions.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A total of 17 245 deaths were reported. NCDs (55%) were the most common cause of death, followed by communicable diseases (23.4%) and injuries (18.1%). NCD-associated deaths increased after age 55 years and were highest among ≥85 years. Communicable diseases were more common at younger age (<20 years). Injury-associated deaths were more common in men (79.9%) and 25-29-year-olds (17.1%). Most deaths (68.2%) could have been avoided by prevention or treatment. Mortality risk was higher among travellers in bordering regions between countries. In Roraima (Brazil) and Norte de Santander (Colombia), locations bordering Venezuela, the death IRR was 863 and 60, respectively. These countries' reference mortality rates in those regions were much lower. More than 80% of the deaths in these border regions of Brazil and Colombia involved Venezuelan citizens.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The study identified risk factors and high-risk locations for deaths among travellers in seven countries of South America.
