目的对全球腰痛患病率进行系统评价，并检查病例定义、患病时间和其他变量对患病率的影响。我们对全球腰痛患病率进行了一项新的系统性综述，其中包括1980年至2009年发表的一般人群研究。共确定了来自54个国家的165项研究。其中，64%是自上次可比审查以来发表的。结果腰痛是世界范围内的主要问题，女性和4080岁人群的患病率最高。调整方法学变异后，平均+/- SEM点患病率估计为11.9 +/-2.0%，1个月患病率估计为23.2 +/-2.9%。结论随着人口老龄化，全球腰痛患者的数量在未来几十年可能会大幅增加。鼓励研究者采用最新的建议，为腰痛的标准定义，并咨询最近开发的工具，以评估患病率研究的偏倚风险。
Objective To perform a systematic review of the global prevalence of low back pain, and to examine the influence that case definition, prevalence period, and other variables have on prevalence. Methods We conduced a new systematic review of the global prevalence of low back pain that included general population studies published between 1980 and 2009. A total of 165 studies from 54 countries were identified. Of these, 64% had been published since the last comparable review. Results Low back pain was shown to be a major problem throughout the world, with the highest prevalence among female individuals and those aged 4080 years. After adjusting for methodologic variation, the mean +/- SEM point prevalence was estimated to be 11.9 +/- 2.0%, and the 1-month prevalence was estimated to be 23.2 +/- 2.9%. Conclusion As the population ages, the global number of individuals with low back pain is likely to increase substantially over the coming decades. Investigators are encouraged to adopt recent recommendations for a standard definition of low back pain and to consult a recently developed tool for assessing the risk of bias of prevalence studies.
