目的:研究不同地理区域葡萄膜炎的模式。方法:使用 MEDLINE 数据库对 1966 年至今的文献进行系统回顾。对满足我们描述的选择标准的研究进行了分析,以提供葡萄膜炎的全球视角。结果:最终分析中纳入了来自澳大利亚、北美和南美、欧洲、亚洲和非洲的最佳代表的 22 项研究。研究各区域的葡萄膜炎病例按炎症解剖部位的分布,以及各区域前葡萄膜炎、中葡萄膜炎、后葡萄膜炎和全葡萄膜炎的病因和临床疾病关联,并进行比较分析。结论:不同地理区域的葡萄膜炎模式既有相似之处,也有明显差异。葡萄膜炎的这种模式受到地理、环境和遗传因素的综合影响。
Purpose: To study the patterns of uveitis in various geographic regions. Methods: A systematic literature review was performed using the MEDLINE database, from 1966 to present. Studies that satisfied our described selection criteria were analyzed to provide a global perspective on uveitis. Results: Twenty-two studies, which were the best available representatives of Australia, North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa, were included in the final analysis. The distribution of uveitis cases according to the anatomical site of inflammation in the various regions, and the causes and clinical disease associations of anterior, intermediate, posterior, and pan-uveitis were studied for each of the regions and a comparative analysis was performed. Conclusions: There are similarities and distinct differences in the patterns of uveitis in the various geographic regions. Such patterns of uveitis are influenced by combinations of geographical, environmental, and genetic factors.
