Abstract

Background and aim: PRISONERS are at great risk of HEPATITIS C infection. The aim of thisstudy is systematic review and META-ANALYSIS of the PREVALENCE of HEPATITIS C in IRANianprisoners. Material and Method: A META-ANALYSIS was performed on relevant articles indexed during2001-2016 in Persian and English languages in the international scientific databasesincluding Scupos, Science Direct, Medline (PubMed) and Google Scholar and also IRANiandatabases including Magiran and Scientific Information Database (SID). Bibliographies ofthe identified articles were reviewed for additional articles. Heterogeneity of the results of thestudies was checked using I2 index. Data were analyzed using the Comprehensive Metaanalysis(CMA) software. Results: The overall PREVALENCE of HEPATITIS C in IRANian PRISONERS was 18. 6 % (95% Cl12. 4%-27. 1%) during 2001-2016. The highest PREVALENCE of HEPATITIS C was recorded inRasht PRISONERS in 2006, 45. 4% (95% Cl: 40. 9%-50%) and the lowest PREVALENCE of HepatitisC was found in Isfahan in 2012 which was7. 4% (95% Cl: 4. 2%-12. 5%). Conclusion: Considering the high PREVALENCE of HEPATITIS C in IRANian prisons, it isrecommended that health officials and policy makers pay more attention to prevention andcontrol of HEPATITIS C in prisons.
