Summary
Traumatic shoulder dislocation burden remains high, with incidence and disability linked to age, gender, and socioeconomic factors. Falls are the primary cause, necessitating targeted interventions.
Area of Science:
- Orthopedics and Sports Medicine
- Epidemiology
- Public Health
Background:
- Traumatic shoulder dislocation represents a significant public health concern.
- Understanding its epidemiological trends and risk factors is crucial for effective management.
Purpose of the Study:
- To analyze geographical and temporal trends of traumatic shoulder dislocation.
- To investigate the association between demographic factors and disease burden.
- To identify the primary causes of traumatic shoulder dislocation.
Main Methods:
- Utilized data from the Global Burden of Disease 2019 study (1990-2019).
- Examined incidence and years lived with disability (YLDs) at global, regional, and national levels.
- Analyzed age, gender, and socio-demographic index (SDI) correlations.
Main Results:
- Incidence and YLD rates showed a slight fluctuating downward trend over 30 years.
- Males consistently had higher incidence and YLD rates than females.
- Falls were the leading cause; incidence peaked in young adulthood for males and old age for females.
Conclusions:
- The disease burden of traumatic shoulder dislocation has not significantly decreased.
- Incidence and YLD rates are significantly associated with age, gender, and SDI.
- Findings support resource allocation and targeted intervention strategies for shoulder dislocations.
