The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) is a reliable measure for detecting paternal postpartum depression. The study's purpose is to determine the appropriate cut-off scores of EPDS for fathers. Our research was conducted using PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Scopus.

For EPDS cut-off values of 7-13, a bivariate random-effects meta -analysis was used to estimate pooled sensitivity and specificity, as well as the diagnostic odds ratio.
