Adolescent and young adult male health receives little attention, despite the potential for positive effects on adult quality and length of life and reduction of health disparities and social inequalities. Pediatric providers, as the medical home for adolescents, are well positioned to address young men's health needs. This review has 2 primary objectives. The first is to review the literature on young men's health, focusing on morbidity and mortality in key areas of health and well-being. The second is to provide a clinically relevant review of the best practices in young men's health. This review covers male health issues related to health care access and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Healthy 2020 objectives for adolescents and young adults, focusing on the objectives for chronic illness, mortality, unintentional injury and violence, mental health and substance use, and reproductive and sexual health. We focus, in particular, on gender-specific issues, particularly in reproductive and sexual health. The review provides recommendations for the overall care of adolescent and young adult males.
青少年和青年男性健康问题很少受到关注，尽管这对提高成年后的生活质量和延长寿命、减少健康差距和社会不平等具有潜在影响。儿科医生作为青少年的医疗之家，非常适合解决青年男性的健康需求。这篇综述有两个主要目的。第一个是回顾有关青年男性健康的文献，重点关注健康和幸福感关键领域的发病率和死亡率。第二个是提供一个关于青年男性健康最佳实践的临床相关综述。本综述涵盖了与医疗保健获取相关的男性健康问题以及疾病预防控制中心为青少年和青年制定的“健康 2020”目标，重点关注慢性病、死亡率、意外伤害和暴力、心理健康和物质使用以及生殖和性健康方面的目标。我们特别关注生殖和性健康方面的性别特定问题。该综述为青少年和青年男性的整体护理提供了建议。
