Relationship Between Early-Life Antibiotic Exposure and Childhood Obesity: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Abstract

15-year period, the incidence of SLE in women was approximately six times higher than in men (Odds Ratio = 6.16). The highest and lowest incidence was recorded in 2001 and 2015, respectively. ConClusions: The findings of the present study suggest that SLE is more common in women than men over the 15-year period. These findings can be used by policy-makers for planning and evaluating health services for this group of patients. Further studies are required to determine the economic burden of the condition.
