- CI = confidence interval; NR = not reported
- aShoraka et al. incorrectly classified one included publication as European when it was in fact a North American study
- bTable 4 presents the birth prevalence estimates from this analysis in further detail
- cGlobal prevalence was calculated by weighting each region by its relative contribution to the total population
