The global burden of otitis media in 204 countries and territories from 1992 to 2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease study 2021.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

This study aims to analyze the global burden of otitis media and predict future trends using data from the Global Burden of Disease 2021 (GBD 2021).

Study design

A cross-sectional analysis of GBD 2021 results was conducted.

Methods

Age-standardized incidence rates (ASIR), age-standardized prevalence rates (ASPR), and age-standardized disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) rates (ASDR) were calculated. Trend analysis was conducted using estimated annual percentage change (EAPC), Joinpoint regression, age-period-cohort, and decomposition analyses. Future projections were generated using Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) and auto-regressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) models.

Results

The global incidence of otitis media rose from 322.1 million cas
