Burden of diabetic ketoacidosis and its predictors among diabetic patients in Ethiopia: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Multiple studies across Ethiopia have investigated the occurrence of DKA, showing significant variations and conflicting findings. This systematic review and meta-analysis seek to consolidate the overall prevalence of diabetic ketoacidosis and its associated factors in the Ethiopian context.

Methods

The study adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) guidelines. Data was collected from PubMed/MEDLINE, Science direct, Google Scholar, and gray literature sources. Microsoft Excel was used for data extraction and summary, while the analysis was performed with R software version 4.3.2. The overall pooled prevalence of diabetic ketoacidosis and its components was estimated using a random effects model. Publica
