Global, Regional, and National Burden of Ectopic Pregnancy: A 30-Year Observational Database Study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To estimate global, regional, and national trends due to ectopic pregnancy as part of the 2019 Global Burden of Disease study.

Methods

We systematically reviewed trends in ectopic pregnancy burden using data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database, including 21 regions, 195 countries, and territories over the past 30 years. The trends of ectopic pregnancy-related incidence, mortality, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) attributable to all known risk factors were also analyzed. Age-standardized rates (ASRs) and their estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) were also calculated.

Results

Incident cases, deaths, and DALYs of ectopic pregnancy increased worldwide in the past 30 years. The age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) was decreasing
