This study conducted a comprehensive analysis on the prevalence of depression and anxiety among multiple sclerosis patients in Iran, showing a significant proportion of people with MS in Iran are affected by depression and anxiety.
Background: There is significant inconsistency regarding the prevalence rate of depression and anxiety among people with multiple sclerosis (MS) in Iran. We sought to conduct this comprehensive meta-analysis to assess the prevalence of depression and anxiety in Iranian multiple sclerosis patients. Methods: A systematic search was conducted on 14 March 2023 in PubMed/MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus, Embase, and Iranian national databases. All studies assessing the prevalence of depression and anxiety among Iranian people with MS were included. We used the NEWCASTLE-OTTAWA tool for quality assessment. We pooled the prevalence of individual studies using the random effect model. Results: Our systematic search showed 23 articles that meet the eligibility criteria. Most of the included studies were cross-sectional. The most used questionnaire to assess depression and anxiety were Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), respectively. The overall prevalence of depression and anxiety among Iranian people with MS was 47% (95%CI: 39%-55%%, I2 =94%) and 51% (95% CI: 36%-66%%, I2 =97%), respectively. The results of subgroup and meta-regression analyses showed assessment scale used and the province was significantly associated with the prevalence of the outcomes. Tehran had the most studies published on this topic. The prevalence of depression and anxiety was highest in Kermanshah province. The funnel plot and Egger's regression test did not show a significant source of funnel plot asymmetry for depression (p-value = 0.8138), and anxiety (p-value = 0.8259). Conclusion: Our study indicates that a significant proportion of people with MS in Iran are affected by depression and anxiety.
