The lifestyle and habit changes that have emerged as a result of quarantine measures may have had a negative impact on defecation habits. However, there is a lack of data on combined estimates of its occurrence and prevalence. We will conduct a systematic search for observational studies on PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, CNKI, SinoMed, VIP China Science and Technology Journal database, Chinese Biomedical Databases and Wanfang Data. The search will include literature published from the inception of the databases to September 2022. Two authors will independently screen articles and extract data based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. The risk of bias in the included studies will be evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale for observational studies. Statistical analysis will be performed using Review Manager software V.5.4 and STATA V.16.0 software. Heterogeneity among studies will be assessed using the Q statistical test and I2 statistical tests. In case of significant heterogeneity, subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis will be conducted to explore the source of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analyses will also be performed to assess the reliability of the study findings. If feasible, a meta-analysis will be conducted. Otherwise, a descriptive synthesis will be performed using a best-evidence synthesis approach. The primary outcome of interest will be the prevalence of constipation. The secondary outcomes will involve examining the association of risk factors. To evaluate potential publication bias, we will use both the Begg funnel plot and Egger’s weighted regression statistics. Furthermore, to accurately assess the quality of evidence for our primary outcome, we will employ the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation system. This systematic review protocol will only consider published studies available in databases and will not include individual patient data. Therefore, ethical approval is not required, and the findings will be published in a peer-reviewed journal. CRD42022366176.
