Abstract

Background: Addressing the risk of people from gender and sexual minority (GSM) groups experiencing inequities throughout the cancer continuum requires a robust evidence base. In this scoping review, we aim to map the literature on cancer outcomes among adults from GSM groups and the factors that influence them along the cancer continuum.

Methods: This mixed-methods scoping review will follow the approach outlined by JBI. We will systematically search electronic databases for literature in collaboration with a health sciences librarian. Two reviewers will screen titles and abstracts to determine eligibility based on inclusion criteria, and then retrieve full text articles for data extraction. Results will be reported following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping reviews. Quantitative data will be qualitized through a narrative interpretation and pooled with qualitative data. We will use meta-aggregation to synthesize findings. This protocol was developed in collaboration with GSM patient and public advisors. We will engage people from GSM groups, community organizations and knowledge users in disseminating results.

Interpretation: This review will direct future research efforts by expanding the wider body of research examining cancer disparities across the cancer continuum that GSM groups experience, identifying literature gaps and limitations, and highlighting relevant social determinants of health that influence cancer outcomes for adults from GSM groups.

绘制癌症研究中的性别和性少数群体代表性:范围界定审查协议。
背景:解决来自性别和性少数群体(GSM)的人在整个癌症连续过程中经历不平等的风险需要强有力的证据基础。在这篇范围界定综述中,我们的目的是绘制GSM组成年人癌症结果的文献,以及沿着癌症连续体影响他们的因素。方法:这种混合方法范围审查将遵循JBI概述的方法。我们将与健康科学馆员合作,系统地搜索电子数据库中的文献。两名评审员将根据纳入标准筛选标题和摘要,以确定是否符合资格,然后检索全文文章进行数据提取。结果将按照系统审查的首选报告项目和范围审查的荟萃分析扩展进行报告。定量数据将通过叙述性解释进行定性,并与定性数据合并。我们将使用元聚合来综合研究结果。该协议是与GSM患者和公共顾问合作开发的。我们将让GSM团体、社区组织和知识用户参与传播结果。解释:这篇综述将通过扩大研究范围来指导未来的研究工作,研究癌症在GSM群体经历的癌症连续体中的差异,确定文献空白和局限性,并强调影响GSM群体成年人癌症结果的健康的相关社会决定因素。
