ABSTRACT

A meta‐analysis study to assess the influence of Parkinson's disease (PD) on different types of wound infection (WI) in total joint arthroplasty (TJA) patients. A comprehensive literature examination till January 2023 was implemented and 1976 linked studies were appraised. The picked studies contained 76 661 subjects with TJA in the picked studies' baseline, 19 188 of them were PD, and 57 473 were non‐PD. Odds ratio (OR) in addition to 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to calculate the consequence of PD on different types of WI in TJA patients by the dichotomous and continuous styles and a fixed or random model. PD had a significantly higher postoperative surgical site WI (OR, 1.76; 95% CI, 1.15–2.67, P = .009), superficial WI (OR, 3.36; 95% CI, 1.41–7.99, P = .006), and periprosthetic WI (OR, 4.89; 95% CI, 2.13–11.22, P < .001) compared to the non‐PD in TJA patients' post‐surgery wounds. PD had a significantly higher postoperative surgical site WI, superficial WI, and periprosthetic WI compared to the non‐PD in TJA patients' post‐surgery wounds. Though precautions should be taken when commerce with the consequences since some of the picked studies for this meta‐analysis was with low sample sizes.
