Finally, 372 articles were included: 352 studies for prevalence analysis, 7 for incidence analysis, and 114 for outcome analysis (some studies provided data on prevalence, incidence and/or outcomes at the same time; hence, the total number was different from the sum of subgroups) (Fig. 1) |
Finally, 372 articles were included: 353 studies for prevalence analysis, 7 for incidence analysis, and 114 for outcome analysis (some studies provided data on prevalence, incidence and/or outcomes at the same time; hence, the total number was different from the sum of subgroups) (Fig. 1) |
The prevalence rates were relatively low in Sichuan (1.8%, 95% CI: 1.1–2.6), Beijing (1.9%, 95% CI: 0.1–2.6), Guangdong (1.9%, 95% CI: 0.7–3.6), Jiangsu (2.2%, 95% CI: 1.9–2.5), and Shanghai (2.9%, 95% CI: 2.5–3.3), all which were relatively economically developed regions (Table 1) |
The prevalence rates were relatively low in Sichuan (1.8%, 95% CI: 1.1–2.6), Beijing (1.9%, 95% CI: 0.1–5.5), Guangdong (1.9%, 95% CI: 0.7–3.6), Jiangsu (2.2%, 95% CI: 1.9–2.5), and Shanghai (2.9%, 95% CI: 2.5–3.3), all which were relatively economically developed regions (Table 1) |

Herein, 62 studies [14–16, 18–20, 22–25, 29–31, 33– 40, 44–46, 50, 53, 55, 56, 58–60, 63–67, 71, 77, 78, 80, 81, 84–86, 92, 93, 96, 97, 99–101, 104–107, 111] were included to analyze the influence of sex on the prevalence of ARLD. The prevalence of male was 2.9% (95% CI: 2.4– 3.5), which was much higher than that of women (0.5%, 95% CI: 0.4–0.7) (Table 1) |

The prevalence of ARLD in China by provinces. The prevalence in 21 provinces of China was indicated by depth of red. The prevalence in China was obtained from the analysis of 19 cities or provinces including Sichuan, Beijing, Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Gansu, Shaanxi, Guizhou, Zhejiang, Henan, Hunan, Jilin, Heilongjiang, Taiwan, Tibet, Liaoning, Yunnan, Anhui, Shandong, Hebei, and Xinjiang provinces |
