Abstract
Introduction: Food insecurity is a global priority that has been found to negatively impact mental health, increasing the risk of mental disorders and severe mental illness. International migrants may face food insecurity throughout their migratory cycle due to a range of risk factors, such as poor transit conditions, precarious employment, financial pressure, discrimination, and lack of availability and access to culturally relevant food, among others. Although there are multiple reviews on migration, food insecurity, and health in general, no scoping review has been conducted on food insecurity among international migrants focusing on mental health.
Objective: To investigate the available evidence on food insecurity and mental health among international migrants.
Methods: A search of scientific literature in English, Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese published since 2013 will be performed in the Web of Science, PubMed, Medline, APA PsycArticles, Cinahl, and ASSIA databases, including grey literature available in Google Scholar. Two authors will independently review titles, abstracts, and full texts before extracting data from publications complying with the eligibility criteria. Extracted data will be descriptively mapped according to emerging thematic categories.
Expected results: The review will contribute to identifying what is known about international migration, food insecurity, and mental health, gaps in the literature, opportunities for specific research subtopics, and how food insecurity and mental health can be linked in the existing literature.
导言：粮食不安全是一个全球优先事项，已被发现会对心理健康产生负面影响，增加精神障碍和严重精神疾病的风险。由于一系列风险因素，如恶劣的过境条件、不稳定的就业、经济压力、歧视、缺乏文化相关食物的供应和获取途径等，国际移民在整个移徙周期中都可能面临粮食不安全问题。尽管对移民、粮食不安全和一般健康问题进行了多次综述，但尚未对国际移民的粮食不安全问题进行以心理健康为重点的范围综述：调查有关国际移民中粮食不安全和心理健康的现有证据：将在 Web of Science、PubMed、Medline、APA PsycArticles、Cinahl 和 ASSIA 数据库中搜索 2013 年以来发表的英文、西班牙文、法文、意大利文和葡萄牙文科学文献，包括谷歌学术中的灰色文献。两位作者将独立审阅标题、摘要和全文，然后从符合资格标准的出版物中提取数据。提取的数据将根据新出现的主题类别进行描述性映射：该综述将有助于确定有关国际移民、粮食不安全和心理健康的已知信息、文献中的空白、特定研究子课题的机会，以及如何在现有文献中将粮食不安全和心理健康联系起来。
期刊介绍：
Medwave is a peer-reviewed, biomedical and public health journal. Since its foundation in 2001 (Volume 1) it has always been an online only, open access publication that does not charge subscription or reader fees. Since January 2011 (Volume 11, Number 1), all articles are peer-reviewed. Without losing sight of the importance of evidence-based approach and methodological soundness, the journal accepts for publication articles that focus on providing updates for clinical practice, review and analysis articles on topics such as ethics, public health and health policy; clinical, social and economic health determinants; clinical and health research findings from all of the major disciplines of medicine, medical science and public health. The journal does not publish basic science manuscripts or experiments conducted on animals. Until March 2013, Medwave was publishing 11-12 numbers a year. Each issue would be posted on the homepage on day 1 of each month, except for Chile’s summer holiday when the issue would cover two months. Starting from April 2013, Medwave adopted the continuous mode of publication, which means that the copyedited accepted articles are posted on the journal’s homepage as they are ready. They are then collated in the respective issue and included in the Past Issues section.
